Overview

Can the Big Bang and evolution be reconciled with the Bible? Was everything in the universe created in six days? Was Jesus crucified on a Friday? Is the Christian church supposed to keep the Sabbath? Is the Old Testament still relevant? Shabua is a Hebrew word used in the Bible to mark time. Shabua Days provides fascinating examples of how the Bible uses shabua for short-term timing. Understanding a biblical shabua enables greater insight into many Bible passages, including the Genesis 1-2 passage regarding Creation. Since any discussion of Creation is incomplete without also addressing the Big Bang and evolution, Shabua Days thoroughly examines both of these secular theories in addition to the relevant Bible passages. This analysis not only exposes some major unresolved issues in the scientific explanations of both the Big Bang and evolution, but also demonstrates how Creation is part of a precedent-setting shabua. Other topics covered in this book include: the exodus, biblical weddings, manna, the Sabbath, the Feast of Passover, the Feast of Shabua, the crucifixion, the resurrection, Pentecost, and more. Shabua Days has something eye-opening for every reader, believer and nonbeliever alike. Solid supporting research, the clear presentation of ideas, the attention to detail, and well-argued logical conclusions make for a compelling and worthwhile read that is sure to provide a new perspective on the Bible.

This book is an eye-opener from beginning to end. Any student of the Bible will be spiritually enriched by the author's amazing insights about God's pattern for accomplishing His will in history. -Dr. David Reagan, founder and senior evangelist of Lamb & Lion Ministries Shabua Days may launch a new area of investigation that has been overlooked in the study of God's Word. It shows how the term shabua should play an active role in the vocabulary of anyone studying the Bible. Shabua Days also establishes the importance of understanding this term in order to grasp the history and flow of biblical literature... Shabua Days will enrich every reader's understanding of Scripture. -Carl Westerlund, Th.M., founder of Calvary Chapel School of Ministry Written with precision and attention to detail, Shabua Days is a groundbreaking book that is about to turn biblical scholarship upside down. Paul is a thoughtful scholar, a diligent researcher and a trusted guide. If you want a fuller picture of God's design for the universe, as well as for your everyday life, this is the next book you need to pick up. -Mandy Arioto, president and CEO of MOPS International God has structured our world, our activities and our relationships within the context of a process called time. When we understand what the Bible teaches about time, we are able to not only understand our lives, but God's nature as well. Shabua Days will help your work, your worship and your appreciation for the Scriptures. -Dr. John Townsend, New York Times bestselling author of Boundaries Shabua Days by Paul Wozniak stirs my mind and spirit, and affirms my fervent conviction in the inerrancy of God's written Word. His well-written volume takes the reader on a journey through time and through Scripture--from creation to the new creation, as well as from the exodus to Christ's crucifixion and resurrection. Wozniak provides a wealth of information to which each of us needs to give adequate attention... You will grow through this experience and you will be looking forward to Wozniak's next volume, Shabua Years, to continue this glorious study. -William D. Barrick, Th.D., professor emeritus of Old Testament at The Master's Seminary Shabua Days is one of the best books I have ever read. Through connecting the deep mysteries of God in the Old Testament and New Testament, the intentionality and precise nature of God are seen in new ways. Paul does a great job explaining things that are difficult to understand by repeating key understandings and linking them together time and time again. If you love being a student of deeper understanding in God's Word, this book is for you! Seeing the sovereignty of God is beautiful. When we study in this depth, trusting an omniscient God becomes easier as we see His fingerprints in each and every detail of biblical history! -Carmella Hansberger, women's pastor at Mariners Church Everyone once in awhile there is a book that comes out that shakes some of the preconceived notions of the Bible. In Shauna Days, Paul Wozniak shows his intense effort to stretch our knowledge of the Bible when it comes to history, the geo-political landscape, and Jewish history and culture. This book is not for the faint of heart, but for the student of the Bible who wants to chew on the meat of the Word. -Eric Heard, pastor at Mariners Church Paul Wozniak has put together a powerful exposition of the veracity and authenticity of the Truth! Few can pull that off. Nearly everyone else regurgitates other good writers. -Tim Rafalovich, senior vice president at Wells Fargo Bank

Author Information

Paul Wozniak, JD, earned his Bachelor of Business Administration from the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire, his Certified Financial Planner designation from the College for Financial Planning, and his Juris Doctor from Pepperdine University School of Law. During his second year in law school, Paul began to develop an interest in God's Word after attending a Bible study with fellow students. He gave his life to Jesus Christ later that same year. Shortly after graduating from law school, he began his successful business and tax practice. After twenty-five years in business, Paul sensed God was calling him out of the corporate world. Since that time-more than a decade ago-he has been using his extensive experience doing technical research to meticulously examine God's Word. His thorough and systematic approach to the Bible involves the study of linguistics, history, culture, archeology, and the sciences as well as travel to Egypt, Israel, and Jordan to conduct field research. Paul has attended and been involved in leadership at Mariners Church/South Coast Community Church in Irvine, California, for thirty-six years, where he has served as chairman of the Board of Elders and chairman of the Board of Trustees. He and his wife, Gail, have been married for thirty-three years and have five children, two by marriage: Conrad and his wife, Ashley; Jordan and his wife, Tayah; and Chelsea.
