The common belief is the Seventh Day Rest (later known as Sabbath, or Shabbat) is not for a Christian, it is a "Jewish thing". And the Seventh Day Rest no longer needs to be observed because Jesus is a Christians Rest/Sabbath now.

Let's see what scripture says about that starting at the very beginning and then working from Genesis to Revelation.

Scripture: Leviticus 19:3, 30

v3

"'Each one of you shall respect his mother and his father. You shall keep my Sabbaths. I am Yahweh your God.

v30

"'You shall keep my Sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuary; I am Yahweh.

Define:

• SabbathS - Appointed Time

Who:

• Assembly: Congregation ēḏāh (עֵדָה); Church ekklesia (ἐκκλησία)
• Israel: All the people, both Hebrew and foreigners, who came out of Egypt.

What:

• Keep MY Sabbaths - Yah-God is identifying this day as HIS day. Just like he identifies HIS sanctuary.
• SabbathS is plural here. This is referencing the Appointed Times

When:

• No specific time as those would be found under each of the specific Appointed Time which varies.

Why:
