Luk 23:56 And they returned, and prepared spices and ointments; and rested the sabbath day according to the commandment

1. Does Heb 4:9 say the Mosaic Sabbath law remains or that Gods Sabbath REST remains?
2. God has his own Sabbath REST true. But does he work on his Sabbath? What does Jesus say? read John 5:17
3. God has his own Sabbath REST true. But does is occurr for him every 7 days? When did that rest began and had it finished thousand of years later when the Israelites existed as a people ? read Hebrews 3:18, 19
1. It's not Mosaic law, it is God's finger written law. Heb 4:4,9,10.
2. Already answered.
3. It began in Gen 2:2,3 and till new heaven and new earth Isa 66:23.

Re: SABBATH...
Post #1471. God's Sabbath "REST" is different from the weekly Sabbath which was part of a law given to humans ( Heb 4:9 compare Mark 2:27 )
2. Jesus affirmed that God continues to work during his REST period ( John 5:17)
3. GOD'S rest began 6,000 years ago and the same rest day will continue until his purpose is achieve. Gods Rest day then is not every 7 days, its ONE "DAY" which is thousands of years long. (Hebrews 3:18, 19)

The Bible is clear, the Sabbath is always on the seventh day.
Ex 20:11
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.
