the 7th day, and it was made for MAN, not just the Israelites

Exodus 20:8-11
Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.

Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work: But the seventh day is the sabbath of Yahweh thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:

For in six days Yahweh made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore Yahweh blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.


Mark 2:27
And he(Jesus) said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath

The weekly Sabbath points to the Sabbath to come.


The rest for the people of God to come.

There remains therefore a rest for the people of God. Hebrews 4:9


Mankind has been here approaching 6000 years, or 6 prophetic days.


Peter speaking by the Spirit, reveals this important truth.


But, beloved, do not forget this one thing, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and
a thousand years as one day. 2 Peter 3:8


The 1000 years we will reign with Christ here is the "Sabbath Rest" the weekly Sabbath points to.


Those who are in Christ have entered that rest by faith in Him.


8 For if Joshua had given them rest, then He would not afterward have spoken of another day. 9 There remains therefore a rest for the people of God. 10 For he who has entered His rest has himself also ceased from his works as God did from His.
11 Let us therefore be diligent to enter that rest, lest anyone fall according to the same example of disobedience. Hebrews 4:8-11


The rest we will enjoy with Christ during the 1000 years, will be after Christ returns and has removed all our enemies, and we have glorified bodies with no sin nature, that shine like the sun, just like Jesus.

This will be rest indeed, with no sin within our flesh, at war with the Spirit of Life within our heart.

Respectfully PP, Addressing your statements.
#1.Scriptures proves that Sabbath is relevant to those to whom God gave it. If God gave the Sabbath at creation for all men to keep, why would He make it a covenant between Himself and the children of Israel later in history? The words on Gen2:1-3 does not institute the Sabbath. Talking to Jewish scholars should prove their history of the Sabbath.
EX 16:29 See, for that the LORD hath given you the sabbath, therefore he giveth you on the sixth day the bread of two days; abide ye every man in his place, let no man go out of his place on the seventh day.
Who does God mean by "me and you"?

#2. Scriptures read that God gave the Sabbath as a covenant between Himself and the Children of Israel only.
Exo 31:13 -17
Speak thou also unto the children of Israel, saying, Verily my sabbaths ye shall keep: for it is a sign between me and you throughout your generations; that ye may know that I am the LORD that doth sanctify you.

#3. Scriptures read that the purpose of the Sabbath is "a sign between me and you".
It signifies that God is the Creator who created the world in six days and rested on the seventh day.

I will post first text on the Sabbath
Genesis 2:1-3
False, Sabbath is not mentioned in Genesis 2:1-3. It reads that God rested on the seventh day, because He was finished all His works. Scriptures show that the first text about the Sabbath was given after freedom from Egypt. Exo 16:25 .
You appear to be setting up the consistent false arguments that contradict the scriptures.

Continue to post the next text on the sabbath, and see if any help comes from doing this.

Genesis 1:5

Posting scriptures should shed the light on this subject.
Repeating false narratives lead to more confusion of the word of God.
The fact that most will agree that Sabbath is the 7th day of the week does not mean that God ever required Sabbath-keeping for all men.

Apart from Abraham's tenth of war spoils given to Melchizedek, there is no witness of anyone tithing before the law. Also, no mention of sabbaths until the law.

1 Corinthians 15.20:

"But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept."

Now that in the Person and Work of Christ we have the glorious fulfilment of the types and shadows in the Old Testament, we don't need to go back under the old system.

the 7th day, and it was made for MAN, not just the Israelites

Exodus 20:8-11


Mark 2:27
The simple truth about the 4th commandment
Exo 20:8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
Exo 20:9 Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:

Exo 20:10 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:
Exo 20:11 For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.
Ex 20:8 is actually the 4th commandment.

Ex 20:9-10 is HOW to keep the 4th commandment.

Ex 20:11 is WHY to keep the 4th commandment.

In the scriptures God gives several reasons WHY to keep the 4th commandment.

[URL='https://www.blueletterbible.org/kjv/mar/2/27/s_959027']Mar 2:27 - And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the Sabbath:[/URL]
Using a partial quote is designed to change what Jesus is saying to those who accused Him of breaking the Sabbath.

Mark 2:27 Does not reference 'creation' as to when the Sabbath was made for man.
The Sabbath is a sign made to prove to that their God rested on the seventh day.
There is no scriptures that commands man to keep Sabbath prior to the Children of Israel. It's no secret that God testified in the scriptures both when, and to whom Sabbath was given.

Eze 20:12 Moreover also I gave them my sabbaths, to be a sign between me and them, that they might know that I am the LORD that sanctify them.

Did God say I gave Adam my Sabbaths for all humanity to follow or did God made clear that Sabbath was given as a sign between Him and the Children of Israel?
We would contradict several scriptures by adding Sabbath at creation.

When accused of breaking the Sabbath, Jesus replied: Moses commanded circumcision on the 8th day if it lands on the Sabbath day because that law was passed down from Abraham.
This also implies that if Sabbath was passed down from creation, you would not honor circumcision on the Sabbath if Sabbath preceded circumcision.

Jhn 7:22 - Moses therefore gave unto you circumcision; (not because it is of Moses, but of the fathers, and ye on the sabbath day circumcise a man.
Jhn 7:23 - If a man on the sabbath day receive circumcision, that the law of Moses should not be broken; are ye angry at me, because I have made a man every whit whole on the sabbath day?

We have little to no insight in priesthood of Melchizedek but since he was priest and there was priesthood then they must have had some laws which that priest followed .

First Cain and Abel doing sacrificed themselfes , no law but they somehow sinned that means they sinned against the law written in thier hearts .

Then you see Job doing sacrifices for his children , but in the end of book he did sacrifice for his friends because they were "not worthy" to do them and would not be accepted.

Then somehow from nowhere priesthood of Melchizedek appears , we know almost nothing about it but it's important because Christ is priest after this order .

I have no idea why God decided to not tell us .

So is the New Covenant per Jeremiah 31:31-33. The new covenant isn’t made with Gentiles.

That's correct, yet gentiles are grafted into that vine through faith to partake of its root and fatness.

The Gentiles are grafted into the New Covenant, which is the "refreshed Abrahamic Covenant" to which the law of Moses was added, until the Seed should come.


So, we observe the Sabbath the way Abraham, a Gentile, left an example for us to do.


After all, this is the testimony that the Lord had concerning Abraham:

because Abraham obeyed My voice and kept My charge, My commandments, My statutes, and My laws. Genesis 26:5

So then, since you are claiming to be Israel, do you remember the Sabbath & keep it set-apart?

Why did God rest the 7th day ? Adam was alredy alive with Eve they saw God resting . Adam walked with God .
WHY DID GOD REST THE SEVENTH DAY?
Genesis 2:1-3 reinforces WHY GOD RESTED ON THE SEVENTH DAY in each of the 3 verses concerning the seventh day.

Gen 2:1 - Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them.
(All work in heaven and earth FINISHED. NO more work implied)

Gen 2:2 - And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.
(God ENDED (all)His work...... God RESTED FROM ALL HIS WORK)

Gen 2:3 - And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made.
(He RESTED FROM ALL HIS WORK)
Some commentary (not scripture) suggest that 'blessing' and 'sanctifying' the seventh day was for man. This scriptures say and proves that the seventh day was blessed and sanctified because God rested on the seventh day.
Clue: God's rest cannot be defiled but man can and have defile the Sabbath.


Clues: God did not create the heavens and the earth from planet earth. (Gen 1:9-11) Earth was created 3rd day)

'God's rest' has always been on the throne in the heavens.
God has never set His feet on earth.
God's rest has always been a place to enter. (Heb 4:1)
The first people who could have entered God's rest did not enter. (Heb 4:6)


Heb 4:1 - Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it.


Heb 4:2 - For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it.

Heb 4:3 - For we which have believed do enter into rest, as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath, if they shall enter into my rest: although the works were finished from the foundation of the world.

Heb 4:4 - For he spake in a certain place of the seventh day on this wise, And God did rest the seventh day from all his works.


Heb 4:5 - And in this place again, If they shall enter into my rest.


Heb 4:6 - Seeing therefore it remaineth that some must enter therein, and they to whom it was first preached entered not in because of unbelief:


Heb 4:7 - Again, he limiteth a certain day, saying in David, To day, after so long a time; as it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts.
Heb 4:8


Heb 4:8 - For if Jesus had given them rest, then would he not afterward have spoken of another day.



Heb 4:9 - There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God.


Heb 4:10 - For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his.

Heb 4:11 - Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief.
