Holy Saturday is the Sabbath the Day of Rest to which all other Sabbaths point. As Christ rested from the work of creation on the seventh day, He now rests from His work of re-creation, which He finished on Good Friday, the sixth day. It is also the day on which Christ begins to free Hades' captives. Thus it is a day of hushed expectation solemn, yet already deeply joyful. Little books for little hands. 24 pages.
