What day is the sabath what day does the bible say?

[Yeshua HaDerekh]

Yes He did, and it was not not a violation.

No He did not...

 

[Yeshua HaDerekh]

That's not what God says in scripture.

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.

So you think God needs rest? That was for an example for us...

 

[ewq1938]

No, it is a sign to Jews, but the Sabbat was made for man...BEFORE there were any Jews.

Only given to the Jews, not to anyone before and especially not given to the Jews who did not exist at the time of the first Sabbath.

 

[ewq1938]

No He did not...

Yes he did...he could, he did, and he was the Lord of it all.

 

[ewq1938]

So you think God needs rest?

He does what he does and our opinions are meaningless.

 

[Yeshua HaDerekh]

Yes he did...he could, he did, and he was the Lord of it all.

That was the whole point of what Yeshua said... John 5:17

 

[Yeshua HaDerekh]

He does what he does and our opinions are meaningless.

not opinion... John 5:17

 

[Yeshua HaDerekh]

Only given to the Jews, not to anyone before and especially not given to the Jews who did not exist at the time of the first Sabbath.

Throw out Genesis then

But isn't the 7th day sunday I don't realy understand why the 7th day is Saturday

What about the idea of explaining why you think that Sunday is the 7th day of the week and also include why Saturday is not that day?

It's about where ideas come from and whether or not they are accurate.

Huh I don't know it anymore what day does the bible say

Historically Sunday is the first day of the week, and Saturday is the seventh day of the week. The names we call these days depends on our culture and language; but in cultures which have a seven day week this seven day cycle has been continuous.

In English the days of the week come from both Roman and Germanic sources:

1st day - Sunday (Sun's day)
2nd day - Monday (Moon's day)
3rd day - Tuesday (Tiw's day)
4th day - Wednesday (Woden's day)
5th day - Thursday (Thor's day)
6th day - Friday (Frige's day)
7th day - Saturday (Saturn's day)

The Jewish Sabbath (the seventh day of the week) corresponds with the ancient Roman Dies Saturni (Day of Saturn), just as the first day of the week was called by the Romans Dies Solis (Day of the Sun).

The Jews continue to observe the Sabbath on the seventh day of the week, Saturday.

Christians are under no obligation to observe the Jewish Sabbath since the Torah does not apply to anyone who isn't under the Covenant God made with the Jewish people on Mt. Horeb. As Christians we are not under that old covenant, but are under a new covenant established by God, through Christ, for the whole world.

However, since the days of the Apostles Christians have gathered together on the first day of the week for worship. We have done this for two thousand years in order to honor Christ's resurrection. Jesus was resurrected on the first day of the week, and so we meet and gather for worship on the same day the Lord rose from the dead to honor and celebrate the most important event in history.

In modern times some calendars renumerate the days of the week around work days and weekends. So the five day workweek and the two day weekend. But this has no relevance beyond calendar publishers and organizing things around work.

The Christian weekly day of worship isn't a sabbath. It's proper name is "the Lord's Day". Because it's the day Christ rose from the dead.

Do you agree that Christ sinlessly keep the 7th day Sabbath holy and that following Christ is for Christians?

Christ our God also went to the Temple with sacrifices, followed kashrut, abstained from wearing mixed fabrics. In fact He kept Torah perfectly.

Following Christ does not mean pretending to be a Jew when one isn't. Pretending is not only offensive to the Jewish people, but it is offensive to Christ, Himself a Jew. As a Gentile I have no intention on pretending to be something I'm not.

OP

The Sabbath is Saturday. And you will see that in some foreign languages. E.g. saturday = "sabado" in Portuguese. The day of the Sabbath.

Jesus could not have kept the Torah perfectly as the Torah is imperfect. In Acts 15 the apostles agreed with Paul to not impose the law in its entirety on the Gentiles. They had a law against murder. At the same time they had a provision for stoning people for working on the Sabbath. Jesus healed on the Sabbath. The teachers of the law ruled healing is a form of work. They wanted to kill Jesus. The Jews have records of rabbinical legal opinions in their Talmud going back to at least the first century BC.

Hi I always thought sunday was the sabath day but some people think the sabbath is on Saturday and now I don't know what day it realy is Saturday or sunday I always thought Sunday because God rested on the 7th day

Sabbath day is Saturday. Lords day is Sunday, if I'm not wrong the day the early Church celebrated mass.

“And on the day called Sunday, all who live in cities or in the country gather together to one place, and the memoirs of the apostles or the writings of the prophets are read, as long as time permits; then, when the reader has ceased, the overseer verbally instructs, and exhorts to the imitation of these good things.

Then we all rise together and pray, and, as we before said, when our prayer is ended, bread and wine and water are brought, and the overseer in like manner offers prayers and thanksgivings, according to his ability, and the people assent, saying Amen; and there is a distribution to each, and a participation of that over which thanks have been given, and to those who are absent a portion is sent by the deacons.

And they who are well to do, and willing, give what each thinks fit; and what is collected is deposited with the overseer, who provides for the orphans and widows and those who, through sickness or any other cause, are in want, and those who are in bonds and the strangers sojourning among us, and in a word takes care of all who are in need.

But Sunday is the day on which we all hold our common assembly, because it is the first day on which God, having wrought a change in the darkness and matter, made the world; and Jesus Christ our Saviour on the same day rose from the dead.”

Huh I don't know it anymore what day does the bible say

Hi kian-yg,

The Scriptures say the seventh day. It is never mentioned as a named day, other than the 'seventh'. When days began to be named, the practice of the Jews celebrating Sabbath fell on what is now the named day 'Saturday'. It has been pretty well established that the day we call 'Saturday' is the day of the 'seventh' day that God established as the Sabbath.

Does that help?

However, don't confuse the 'Sabbath' command as God's command of a day of worship. It isn't! Christians generally meet and fellowship on Sunday and that's perfectly acceptable as the Sabbath was not instituted as a day of worship, but as a day of rest. If one wants to observe the Sabbath on the day that God instructed under that law as the Sabbath, then they should not do any of their regular work from sundown Friday to sundown Saturday.

God bless,
In Christ, ted

Well you are asking the right question. The problem is that the bible does not name days. However, there are ways to know which day is actually the 7th day and which is the first. Now the bible refers to each day by the number, but the seventh day is called the Sabbath of the Lord.

Now Jesus rose on the first day of the week and we know that because the bible tells us that. The bible also tells us that the day before was the Sabbath.

Mat 28:1 In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre.

So the question you have to ask yourself is what day did Jesus rise. It was Sunday. In fact, many Christians claim to worship on Sunday because that is the day he rose, although there is no command to do so.

Hi I always thought sunday was the sabath day but some people think the sabbath is on Saturday and now I don't know what day it realy is Saturday or sunday I always thought Sunday because God rested on the 7th day

The Most High God designates the first day of the month as the new moon. The first day of the year is the new moon after the spring equinox - at the time the barley turns green (abib/nisan). Six days after this new moon will be your weekly Sabbath - no matter what day it falls on the Gregorian calendar.

Traditional counting was this: The Sunday is the first day of the week, when Jesus raised from the dead, and therefore was celebrated by Christians. The Sabbath is the 7th day of the week and celebrated by Jews. There are languages that show this in the name of Saturday: In German it is Samstag (derived from Sambaton), but there is also the alternate name Sonnabend ("Sun[day]'s eve").

It was some decades ago that the counting of the days of week was changed and normalized as ISO rule. This has nothing to do with Bible.

Some churches attributed to Sunday the significance of the Sabbath, but this has no Biblical basis.

Roman 14:5: One person esteems one day as better than another, while another esteems all days alike. Each one should be fully convinced in his own mind.

So feel free to celebrate Sabbath, Resurrection day, both, or none of them. Follow your conviction.

 

[helmut]

So you think God needs rest?

In a book (not recommended by be as whole book) I found the sentence "on the 7th day God created rest".

 

[helmut]

Only this which predates the Ten Commandments.

“Wherefore my sentence is, that we trouble not them, which from among the Gentiles are turned to God: But that we write unto them, that they abstain from pollutions of idols, and from fornication, and from things strangled, and from blood.” Acts 15:19–20 (KJV 1900)

I strongly doubt that the commands given to "gentiles among you" in the pentateuch predate the decalogue.

The concept of "laws of noah" is similar, but not exact the same as Acts 15.
