The Sabbath Keepers Fellowship & Prison Ministry online library is a collection of our own publications and a selection from various other authors, as well as bibles, prayerbooks, reference materials, music and videos. The library is available free of charge for either viewing or download by all of our members and friends. We also print and send thousands of these same materials at no charge to prisoners of any Sabbath-keeping faith who contact us and request them. We will consider including and making available here other materials from sources which seem appropriate to us for the use of those of Sabbath-keeping faith groups. If you have or know of any excellent articles, books or recordings that you think might belong here, please submit them to us.
SKF Library
We have published a wide assortment of articles, books and booklets over the last two decades. Most of these have been seen in various magazines and newsletters, and thousands of them have been sent free of charge to prison inmates nationwide. Here we have made most of them available to the general public, along with an assortment by other authors. There is a lot of learning to be had from these pages, much of which you have probably never heard before. We hope you will read, share and enjoy them all, as so many others have over the years.
Sabbath Keepers Fellowship generally favors only a few very literal translations of the scriptures and some of the most ancient traditional Hebrew prayerbooks. However, no translation is perfect, and there are some flaws in even these excellent works. On the Bibles & Siddurim page, we offer these few and several other publications, as well. Currently, there is, in our opinion, no best Siddur (prayerbook) available to the people of YHWH who follow Yeshua the Messiah and The Way. We are now in the process of producing one and only lack funds to complete it. Here, you can see a copy of some portions of it which we are already sending in paperback to prisoners who request them.
While no reference book or concordance can substitute for a comprehensive understanding of the original languages of scripture, everyone at some point in their studies needs the aid of these books. Sabbath Keepers Fellowship & Prison Ministry here provides a selection of these study aids for your convenience. Use caution in making assumptions or doctrinal positions based upon the information in these books, as they are not inspired scripture and always reflect the beliefs and agenda of their writers.
Here you will find an assortment of sacred-name music and videos for Sabbath-keepers from a variety of sources. Included is the latest Complete Believer’s Songbook and CD, Sabbath Keepers Fellowship's own production, which is sent free of charge to chaplains for use by prison inmates. We have also included a few music recordings by members of our ministry. If you have or know of a music or video recording that you think belongs in our collection, or if you are a musician yourself and would like to collaborate with us to produce some recordings for charity, please contact us or submit a demo for review to: info@sabbathkeepersfellowship.org.
English translation bibles, concordances and dictionaries just cannot give you the accuracy, flavor and nuance found in the language of the original Hebrew scriptures. Those ancient writings also contain many idioms and metaphors that get completely lost in translations, and there is a certain beauty in Hebrew which is just not conveyed by any other tongue. Learning a language from the distant past with so many differences from modern western English can seem a daunting task. It is not easy and will not happen overnight, but you can learn enough Hebrew to navigate the scriptures better than you ever thought possible in a fairly short while – if you apply yourself diligently to the task. The simple materials on our Hebrew Language Materials page will get you started.
This Library is a charitable function of our ministry and is available to all without cost. While we do ask and always appreciate donations of any size for our services in order to help our inmate brothers and sisters in prison, it is free with no ads or misuse of anyone's personal information whatsoever. We do ask that our free-world members make a small donation for sending them any hard-copies of our materials to cover the cost of printing and postage. Please, feel free to use the resources in this library as you wish, but keep in mind that some other ministries may require you obtain permission from them under copyright law before distributing those materials. Our own articles and books may be used, copied and distributed as desired. We only ask that credit for authorship is given.
Sabbath Keepers Fellowship & Prison Ministry is an outreach ministry whose purpose is to minister to the spiritual, emotional, and physical needs of poor and needy prisoners of all Sabbath-keeping faiths, both during incarceration and upon release from prison; and to minister to the needs of their families and others of our faith. We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization which is wholly supported by the charitable donations and contributions of its friends and of the general public.
