1 | Why the bible says 7 days instead of 6? | Gen 2:2 | you | 235886 | ||
You might look at 7268 with a Sabbath definition posted by kalos. You can see in the Amplified Bible that it says God ended his work on the seventh day. Searcher56 noted this issue in 229563. You can see commentaries at http://bible.cc/genesis/2-2.htm . I found an interpretation, that I don't expect anyone to accept, but does make God's resting real without the universe disappearing. It is on a page of the www.youngisrael.org website with this attestation: 2 October 2010 / 24 Tishri 5771 Daf Yomi: Avoda Zarah 49 "G-d Give Me A Break" Parshas Breisheet Rabbi Brahm Weinberg - Young Israel of West Hartford Rav Shimon Schwab in Maayan Beis Hashoeva explains the depth of Rashi’s statement and, consequently, of G-d’s creation of menucha. 'Rav Schwab asks why creation would have been incomplete without menucha? ... the world and all that was created could not have continued to exist on its own if not for Hashem’s constant involvement with it at every second. ... By resting on the Shabbos, by creating a concept of menucha what Hashems actually doing was created an opportunity for the world to continue to exist even when He ceased to be involved in its new creation; ... He is involved in the creation every day, He does sustain the creation everyday, but is not recreating it new from scratch every day.' |

Numbers are real important in the bible, and the number seven in biblical numeric means spiritual completeness or perfection, GOD finished his work restoring the earth and blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it:(to set apart for sacred use). | ||||||
