The scriptures in Genesis say that God blessed and sanctified the seventh day, not the Sabbath day.
Your only concern is to make Ex20:11 and Mark 2:27 support your comments. You will not address the scriptures I presented to support my comments.
Let's look at your so-called truth. ( Why not give the same expository to the texts I presented)
It's an obvious stretch to link these scriptures Elder, the context are not related.
The comparable texts that you should examine closer is the complete Sabbath commandment in Ex20 and Deut 5
In order not to lose you early, lets look at Deut 5 first.
The Sabbath commandment can be outline as such:
A) The Commandment (what you must do)
B)How and when to do it(6days for all labor, rest on 7th)
C) Why to do it
Deut 5:12 Observe the Sabbath day, to keep it holy, as the Lord your God commanded you. (A)
13 Six days you shall labor and do all your work,
14 but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord your God. In it you shall do no work: you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your ox, nor your donkey, nor any of your cattle, nor your stranger who is within your gates, that your male servant and your female servant may rest as well as you. (B)
15 And remember that you were a slave in the land of Egypt, and the Lord your God brought you out from there by a mighty hand and by an outstretched arm; therefore the Lord your God commanded you to keep the Sabbath day. (C)
......................................................................................
[Ex 20:8 Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. (A)
9 Six days you shall labor and do all your work, 10 but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord your God. In it you shall do no work: you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your cattle, nor your stranger who is within your gates. (B)
11 For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it.(C)
You selectively ignore Deut5:15; that being slaves brought out of Egypt as when God first commanded them to keep the Sabbath. (rest from slavery)
In Deut: You were slaves in Egypt therefore(this is why) keep the Sabbath.
The word therefore is the key to understanding that God's rest and the Sabbath are separate issues.
Ex20 simply means: God rested on the seventh day therefore (this is why) He bless the Sabbath day.
The fact that "God rested on the seventh day" is twisted to "the Sabbath was the seventh day in which God rested."
There is no twisting! Ex 16:16. Six days ye shall gather it; but on the seventh day, which is the sabbath, in it there shall be none.
Ex 31:15. Six days may work be done; but in the seventh is the sabbath of rest, holy to the Lord: whosoever doeth any work in the sabbath day, he shall surely be put to death.
Your own quote of Exodus 20:11 proves that the Sabbath didn't exist at creation. It is necessary for the impetus to exist before it can be drawn on for the result. The same pattern exists in Deuteronomy 5:15. The Exodus existed before the Sabbath did, just as God's rest existed before the Sabbath did.
Leaving out verse 28 shows that you have no idea Jesus was declaring His divinity - He is Lord of the Sabbath because the Sabbath was made for man, and doesn't pertain to God. The Sabbath wasn't made for God. It can't be found in the creation account.
Feigned dementia doesn't help you - it only reveals incompetence. If nothing else, everyone can see that when you're confronted with Scripture, you have nothing to reconcile your opinion with it. Here you threw away the Bible and posted rhetoric attempting to force-fit an unbiblical idea in it's stead. This reveals that the Bible isn't the basis of your beliefs.Jesus said it was made for man. When was everything made that was made?

Ex 31:15. Six days may work be done; but in the seventh is the sabbath of rest, holy to the Lord: whosoever doeth any work in the sabbath day, he shall surely be put to death.
In both of these responses, you didn't respond to the content or questions confronting you. You didn't even try. All you did was excuse your twist against Holy Writ, as if it were a common thing you can throw away.Is there another reason? I do not believe God placed it there because He had nothing else to do.

When Moses returned to Egypt the Israelites rested on the Sabbath. Ex. 5:And Pharaoh said, Behold, the people of the land now are many, and ye make them rest from their burdens.No twisting, but go back a few weeks to Ex12 and we know that the Children of Israel were slaves working 7days a week in Egypt.
I detect you're trying to highlight show that Sabbath preceded Sinai........but you wont be honest and see when it was first given in Ex16.
Hot sauce keeps the system clean. Peppers are great food.You do a good job, clear, grisp, with some salt, and pepper, and with some, a splash of hot sauce!
You wrote two posts to complain about my posts, but in neither response did you identify anything that you disagree with. Or, are you just being contentious for no reason because you have already reduced everyone to "Sundayists" as you posted to someone else? Most of us have publicly stated that Sunday Sabbatarianism is just as fraught with errors as Saturday Sabbatarianism.Gerhard Ebersöhn;67195890 said:Now this is what <<twist against Holy Writ>> is.
You don't even quote a Scripture; you just ACCUSE---no more than ACCUSE, and falsely. Elder111 posted what is written and posted it TRUTHFULLY.
You did the <twisting against Holy Writ>.
What does <Holy Writ> mean to you but your rock to stone with!
You've already been dragged onto the carpet for replacing the Sabbath with a three-day journey into the wilderness to offer a sacrifice with this reference. That doesn't help establish the Sabbath's origin prior to the manna experience, itself about a month before the covenant from Mount Sinai was declared.When Moses returned to Egypt the Israelites rested on the Sabbath. Ex. 5:And Pharaoh said, Behold, the people of the land now are many, and ye make them rest from their burdens.
There is no need to twist, we find in God's word clear support for the facts.
Twisting is required to deny the Sabbath before Sinai not to support it.
The Israelites will keep the Sabbath, observing the Sabbath for all their generations to come: this is an eternal covenant. (Exodus 31:16)
Notice that it is Israel that is to observe the sabbath.
