Genesis and yeshua said it was made for man...adam.
Made for man, not for God. Where did God command Adam to rest on the seventh day?
Noah brought rest from the toil all the days of mans life a curse on the ground.
Ge 5:29 And he called his name Noah, saying, This same shall comfort us concerning our work and toil of our hands, because of the ground which the LORD hath cursed.

Noah= "rest"
1) son of Lamech, father of Shem, Ham, and Japheth; builder of the ark which saved his family from the destruction of the world which God sent on the world by the flood; became the new seminal head of mankind because his family were the only survivors of the flood

Heb 11:7 By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by the which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith.
The law of Moses.. The rest and inheritance....After the Sabbath day was already given and enforced....as a test...
De 12:9 For ye are not as yet come to the rest and to the inheritance, which the LORD your God giveth you.

I see no difference. To love God and your fellow man IS the Torah...you are trying to say Yeshua's commandments are NOT the same as The Father's...if anything, Yeshua made them even stricter...actual adultery vs just thinking about it, etc...Yeshua gave correct interpretation of the Torah



How are they different?
None of this difference seems to bother any of you when it comes to the priesthood, the temple, the blood? That is what is so glaringly hypocritical to me.
What different command concerning the priests?
Mt 12:5 Or have ye not read in the law, how that on the sabbath days the priests in the temple profane the sabbath, and are blameless?

Yes for Adam. Who else was there? Why do you keep bringing up Noah? They are 2 separate things.

There was no Temple or priesthood when the sabbath was instituted. How about when the manna fell with a double portion on erev Shabbat? You make no sense...

The rest of God which we are to enter and the seventh day sabbath of Moses law are two different things.

There is a rest they had not yet entered at that time. You have not acknowledged that

You have not acknowledged my points at all and keep bringing up things that are not relevant to the discussion...

Do Sabbath Keepers KEEP the Sabbath?
They certainly do not if they recognize Isaiah 58 as their guide.
13 If thou turn away thy foot from the sabbath, from doing thy pleasure on my holy day; and call the sabbath a delight, the holy of the Lord, honourable; and shalt honour him, not doing thine own ways, nor finding thine own pleasure, nor speaking thine own words:

14 Then shalt thou delight thyself in the Lord; and I will cause thee to ride upon the high places of the earth, and feed thee with the heritage of Jacob thy father: for the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it.

Israelites failed to keep the day Holy, so why do people today believe they can do better?

One of the reasons I never really enjoyed the Sabbath is because I was honest with myself. After the Sabbath I would critique myself to see how well I "behaved". My thoughts and words and sometimes even my actions kept me from what I believed was the standard for keeping Sabbath, Is 58. In actuality, all I was doing is putting on a good front to my peers. After a while, I learned they were doing the same thing. So much for trying to cover up what in reality I could not ever do. The cover-up was the real sin. What a relief it was when I found out that Christianity isn't about keeping ritual days given only to the now-defunct nation of Israel. I still rest from my labor, but my real rest is in Jesus.

The command was not only to rest on the Sabbath, it was also about working not five but six days a week. How many who believe the 10 are their guide are working six days a week?

Is it lawful for the priests to perform sacrifice during the Sabbath? Is it lawful for a father to circumcised his son on the eight day, when that 8th day is also the Sabbath? Is it lawful for the priests to work in the temple during the Sabbath? Is it lawful to walk by faith to the temple to worship YHWH during the Sabbath? Are the priests required to finish all of their work in six days? There was no manna to "gather" on the Sabbath day; however there was something for the disciples to pluck in the field.

Right. Turning a key in the ignition is an act of creation. The starter begins a process that produces a current that creates sparks that ignite fuel flames dozens of times per second. And those sparks are consuming fuel as well.

This is why a synagogue is supposed to be within walking distance of your home. A Sabbath day's allowable walking distance.
What constitutes work? According to the scriptures what is considered "walking distance"? Does your heart stop working during the Sabbath day?

Sabbath food gathering, travel and load bearing restrictions seem to be biblical.

Matthew 12:1-2
At that time Jesus went through the grainfields on the Sabbath. His disciples were hungry and began to pick some heads of grain and eat them. 2 When the Pharisees saw this, they said to him, “Look! Your disciples are doing what is unlawful on the Sabbath.”

Acts 1:12
Then the apostles returned to Jerusalem from the hill called the Mount of Olives, a Sabbath day’s walk from the city.

John 5:10
and so the Jewish leaders said to the man who had been healed, “It is the Sabbath; the law forbids you to carry your mat.”

Jeremiah 17:27
But if you do not obey me to keep the Sabbath day holy by not carrying any load as you come through the gates of Jerusalem on the Sabbath day, then I will kindle an unquenchable fire in the gates of Jerusalem that will consume her fortresses.’”
The Sabbath is about "REST" not RESTrictions.

Which came first Adam or the seventh day? The Sabbth law also pertains to the animals inside your house. How could Adam keep something that wasn't made yet? Adam did rest; he fell into a deep sleep.

God ordered that a man be stoned to death for gathering firewood on the Sabbath.
Do you suppose that was his occupation?
