The Origin of the Sabbath and Its Legacy to the Modern Sabbatical
Kimball, Bruce A.
Journal of Higher Education, 49, 4, 303-15, Jul/Aug 78
In view of recent government proposals for "cyclical life planning" based on a sabbatical concept, this essay discusses the evolution of the Hebrew Sabbath and notes how those origins inform both the specific proposals for cyclical life planning and the general twentieth-century concept of sabbatical.
