Blur blur me found out what the 7th day rest really means… clarified! Hope u guys will see why God rested on the 7th day, esp those who were thinking along with us during SG! 
First, God rested on the seventh day, Sabbath. The all-powerful God was not tired from creating the heavens and the earth, and yet the Bible shows that God rested on the seventh day, Sabbath. Keeping the Sabbath holy by resting was God’s first example to man. Here, “rest” simply means that God stopped or ceased His work of creation. God’s rest was not the rest of inactivity. It was a rest in distinction to His creative activities of the previous six days.
Second, God blessed the seventh day, Sabbath. This means that God gave the seventh day a special quality of goodness. He created a quality of blessing for the seventh day not given to any other day of the week. Notice that none of the other days of the week were blessed, only the seventh day.
Third, God sanctified or made holy the seventh day, Sabbath. By sanctifying or making the seventh day holy, God declared and made the seventh day to be sacred or holy time.
God did more than merely rest on that first Sabbath. “And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it ? (Genesis 2:3). This was God’s final act in His creation week. He took the last day (seventh day) of the creation week and set it apart as a special day. God made the seventh day Sabbath special by blessing it and setting it apart from the other six days.

The scripture says that God ended his work on the seventh dat. That tells me that He did do some work on that day in order to end or finish it. Perhaps He did some fine tuning or made some adjustments. God only said that it was very good on the seventh day after it was finished. It is also possible that God’s rest was a pause to reflect on what He had created because after all, He really did not need a physical rest.
Gods rest on the seventh day was a rest of achievement and not one of inactivity
God is the best. All Hail Yahweh the powerful creator God. The greatest inventor and Scientist of all. Greater than a genius. He created the heavens and the earth with proportion.
So, maybe you are taking it literally. I think that the Bible is a compilation of passage from that is like a puzzle. God is intelligent that is why we should not take it literally. A real genius like him will not be easy to understand.
An example of proof that a Bible has a secret passage that makes it like a puzzle is
found on Genesis and Revelation. I think God is the one speaking on both book.
Genesis says that He created our Solar System or our Planet in just 7 days.
The book of Revelation Says that a Thousand years for us is just like one day for God.
That is the proof that that 7th day is not just one day. That seventh day where he rest is the Day where he observe all his creation.
i’m doin CE mocks and do not understand what is important about the seventh day of rest
if u know please make a note of it on this website
