You're still not getting it.

Rest = (שָׁבַת) = Shabbat. Rest is English for Shabbat. Shabbat is in the very verse you posted Gen. 2:3. When you go back and read the scripture that I posted, maybe it will make more sense in that context.
False,
Obviously you don't know the truth. 'Rest' (shabath) is a simple verb like the word 'run'. You don't know how long the 'run' or 'rest' is, unless noted in the sentence.
On the other hand, Shabbath is a noun that means 24hrs of rest.

Gen 2:3 And God H430 blessed H1288 the seventh H7637 day, H3117 and sanctified H6942 it: because H3588 that in it he had rested (verb)H7673 from all his work H4399 which God H430 created H1254 and made. H6213

7673 שָׁבַת shabath Pronounced shä·vath' (VERB)

The KJV translates Strong's H7673 in the following manner: cease (47x), rest (11x), away (3x), fail (2x), celebrate (1x), miscellaneous (7x).
( Gen 2:3 is 1 of the 11x H7673 is translated "rest" (V) not "Sabbath" (N)


Exo 16:23
And he said unto them, This is that which the LORD hath said, To morrow is the rest of the holy sabbath H7676 unto the LORD: bake that which ye will bake to day, and seethe that ye will seethe; and that which remaineth over lay up for you to be kept until the morning.

You obviously have done very little study of Hebrew; let alone Ancient Hebrew.

Strong doesn't have the final word on the manuscripts; and neither assigning the same word different numbers, nor transliterating it with different letters, changes the original manuscript. The verse you quoted uses Strong's H7673 (שבת) Shin Beth Taw.

That is the same word that is used in the verse below, Strong's H7676 (שבת) Shin Beth Taw.

As a side note, your source says that it pronounced "shä·vath" but the "V" sound didn't even exist in Hebrew; until it was infused through Yiddish by Ashkenazi's from the Russian Steps. The niqqud weren't added until at least 500 years after the fall of the Temple.

(CLV) Ex 20:10
yet the seventh day is a sabbath to Yahweh your Elohim. You shall not do any work, you, your son or your daughter, your manservant or your maidservant, your bull, your donkey or your beast, or your sojourner who is within your gates.

True, I don't study Hebrew, but Shin ת Beth ב Taw ש are these Hebrew alphabet letters (שבת) Obviously you did not know.
Blueletterbible.org has some tools that can help you to use Stong's numbers.
You can notice that the 3 letters has some other characters making them different.

Those characters are niqqud.

Again, the niqqud weren't added until the Middle Ages. They were added by Pharisaic Jews; and they do not conform to the original Hebrew, not by letter, nor by phonetics, according to linguists of Ancient Hebrew. The Pharisees (creators of the Talmud), which evidence supports came from Persia, made a deal with the Roman government; then shortly thereafter the Saducees (descendants of Abraham) were killed of in mass. The Khazars (who have speech impediments) join the Pharisees; and then roughly three quarters of a millennium after the fall of the temple, decide to rewrite the language. You'll have to excuse me if I put the word of YHWH, as it was given to Moshe, over the word of the Pharisees.

Shin Beth Taw is not a word, it's letters of the Hebrew alphabet, like saying A B C. You are really full of stories. At closer look of the Hebrew lexicon, it's not the same word because their are other characters added.
You're going to great length to confuse the fact that rest and Sabbath are not the same word.

LOL! You are really showing your ignorance. There are no niqqud in ancient Hebrew; yet YHWH wrote his word on the tablets in Ancient Hebrew.

H7676 - shabbath - Strong's Hebrew Lexicon (KJV)
The KJV translates Strong's H7676 in the following manner: sabbath (107x), another (1x).
( Clicking on sabbath(107x) above will show you, the first time the word Sabbath appears in the bible is Ex16 not Gen 2)

Exo 16:23 And he said H559 unto them, This is that which the LORD H3068 hath said, H1696 To morrow H4279 is the rest H7677 of the holy H6944 sabbath H7676 unto the LORD: H3068 bake H644 that which ye will bake H644 to day, and seethe H1310 that ye will seethe; H1310 and that which H3605 remaineth over H5736 lay up H3240 for you to be kept H4931 until the morning.

LoL By now even you should know how you've exposed your knowledge of Hebrew. I did not originally post the niqqud, you did, and you said H7673 Rest and H7676 Sabbath were the same word. (not man enough to admit this major error)
The Septuagint was translated from Classic Hebrew into Greek around 200bc

You got it wrong. rest = Shabat = rest in English, in Gen 2:2 and 3 REST is a verb.
The word Shabbat is derived from Shabat.
There is no Shabbat without resting, so in the bible rest is mostly related to keeping Sabbath.

The Septuagint was written 200BC. It is the OT in Greek from Herbrew. Ignorance is putting a New Testament book in Hebrew rather than Greek.

You did in post #22 and claimed Hebrew alphabet letters was the same word. That was a big screw up on your part.
