This book contains a defense of the idea that God’s rest on Day 7 of the creation week is instructive for people today. More technically, this book argues for the propriety of weekly Sabbath rest. This means that the normal pattern to be followed by humanity is a week, consisting of seven 24-hour days, six of which are spent in work while the other day is devoted to rest. Theologians would use the language of God’s rest being a “creation ordinance,” which is a term that many theologians use, but none have defined.

“In the beginning, God created the earth, and he looked upon it in His cosmic loneliness. And God said, "Let Us make living creatures out of mud, so the mud can see what We have done." And God created every living creature that now moveth, and one was man. Mud as man alone could speak. God leaned close to mud as man sat up, looked around, and spoke. Man blinked. "What is the purpose of all this?" he asked politely. "Everything must have a purpose?" asked God. "Certainly," said man. "Then I leave it to you to think of one for all this," said God. And He went away.” –Kurt Vonnegut, ...

Unsound chronology undermines faith in Scripture. For centuries, biblical chronology has too often been treated as a problem to be managed rather than a system to be understood. Many studies attempt to force the Bible’s precise and coherent sequence of events to conform to fragmentary secular chronologies—reversing the proper order of evidence and obscuring the Bible’s own internal logic. Just in Time restores chronology to its rightful place at the heart of biblical interpretation. Drawing directly from primary biblical data and carefully correlating it with historical, astronomical,...
