(Abraham) Gomer voor den sabbath; meditatiën over en voor de sabbath Produced by The Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net "Gomer voor den sabbath; meditatiën over en voor de sabbath" by Abraham Kuyper is a collection of meditations focusing on the observance and spiritual significance of the Sabbath, written in the late 19th century. The work delves into the importance of Sabbath rest, emphasizing its divine institution and the need for mankind to honor it as a critical aspect of faith and life. The meditations serve as reflections for each Sunday of the year, aimed at enhancing the reader's understanding and experience of Sabbath observance. The opening of the work establishes Kuyper's purpose in discussing the theological underpinnings of the Sabbath and sets the tone for a serious contemplation of its observance. It begins with an explanation of the need for a deeper appreciation of the Sabbath in modern society, arguing against the trend of overlooking its sanctity. Kuyper emphasizes that the Sabbath is a gift from God meant to uplift humanity amidst the burdens of labor and sin. He introduces key concepts such as the divine authority behind the Sabbath, its role in providing spiritual renewal, and the necessity for believers to engage in genuine meditation and worship on this holy day. This initial exploration sets the stage for further in-depth discussions on the implications of Sabbath observance in the following meditations.
