Sabbath, Also is the one aspect that gives us an understanding that the First five books of the Bible is written by the Author Moses. As there is no mention of Sabbath at the time of Adam, Abraham or Noah.. Joseph or Jacob, but only Moses' time. God created the Heavens and Earth and all that in it in 6 days and rested on the 7th Day. The Significance of Sabbath is universal, that is how we got our Sunday holiday.
