Bobservations Column: "Sabbath, But No Rest"

Jesus said in the New Testament, Mark 2:27 (Exodus 23:12 & Deuteronomy 5:14) that the sabbath was created for man, not man for the sabbath. In Exodus 31:16, God directed the Jews to keep the sabbath throughout their generations, for a perpetual covenant. God taught His children through His own example, 6 days to work, then one day of rest, just as He did during the days of creation. . .
