I'm thinking of one passage from the Old Testament and one from the New Testament. Do you know where it is quoted elsewhere in the Bible? I'll give you a clue. Now it is interesting how the rest of the Bible picks up on this verse. It is simple a statement that God blessed this seventh day and made it holy. No command is given to mankind at this point to do likewise. On the seventh day God had finished His work and He rested from further acts of creation. The first point presented to us in Genesis chapter 2 concerns the rest. 3 And God blessed the seventh day and made it holy, because on it he rested from all the work of creating that he had done. 2 By the seventh day God had finished the work he had been doing so on the seventh day he rested from all his work. Genesis 2:1-3 Thus the heavens and the earth were completed in all their vast array. An odd collection but there you have it! Let's have a look. There are a few little points I want to focus on for this chapter. Genesis chapter 2 presents us with more great types and examples of Christ and the Christian life.
