Which proves that Jesus rested in the grave on the Sabbath day. He lived and died sinless. Why would you rest on the day he did such a great work? God made the sabbath for man, not the man for sabbath. It doesn’t say God made the sabbath for Jews. It was sanctified long before Jews existed.
We are identified in His death, but celebrate His life. He was also laid to rest on Passover. Still celebrating that, rabbi?
And there was no law governing the Sabbath before Moses. So, get out of here with that nonsense.
The feasts were originally tied directly to sacrifices, which Jesus put an end to; so keeping them in that manner is unnecessary. I do remember the feast days; just without the sacrifices of the first Israel, and however modified by the Ashkenazis.
The Passover, feast of unleavened bread, and feast of first fruits honor His sacrifice, death, and resurrection; all 3 days in a row. linked a good little passage, a few weeks ago, with solid clues suggesting that Jesus was possibly born on the feast of trumpets, which would be better appreciated than some solar event on Dec. 25; or do you keep that pagan tradition?
“And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made. And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made.” Genesis 2:2-3 KJV
Sanctify: To set apart for sacred use; consecrate. To make holy; purify. To give religious sanction to, as with an oath or vow.
