This is exactly what the author deals with in his master's thesis - what the day of the Lord should represent to today's christian. When examining the current situation, beliefs and life of many believers in the Catholic Church, we can quickly see the relevance of this issue.

This is followed by a detailed exegetical analysis of the commandment and its interpretation. All this shows us the central place that the third commandment occupies within the Bible. In the last section, the author presents the Jewish view of the Sabbath. Presented is their celebration of every Saturday. In addition, it presents how is their thinking connected with the things they do and what leads them to their relationship to the Sabbath, which truly represents one of the most important things in their lives.
