The Sabbath is introduced in the creation week when God ceases for 24 hours from His work of creating time, space and matter, <blockquote> "Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. 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 [[Holy|sanctified]] it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made."</blockquote>
