We'll recall that in six days, Yahweh made the skies, the land, and the sea, and all that's in them.
And he rested on the seventh day.
So the word rest there is different.
And Shabbat and Noah are synonyms in Genesis.
And here they're brought together.
Yeah, to Shabbat is to stop.
And the nuach provides another nuance of meaning.
It presumes that you've stopped.
And now you're having the restorative experience of having stopped.
Then you are resting and you're settling and you're enjoying.
you stop so that you are now settling down.
Resting is about having settled, you enjoy something.
So they work together.
So why is it that you work for six days and then Shabbat on the seventh?
