This book traces the origins of sabbatarianism to medieval scholastic theology and finds a broad consensus on the issue in the Elizabethan and Jacobean Church. In the 1630s, however, Laudian propaganda polarized opinion and established sabbatarianism as one of the most cherished puritan causes during the Civil War.
