The concept of rest is deeply rooted in the creation narrative and extends throughout Scripture, symbolizing not only physical rejuvenation but also spiritual peace and fulfillment in God.<br><br><b>Creation and the Sabbath:</b><br><br>The foundation of rest is established in the creation account. <a href="/genesis/2-2.htm">Genesis 2:2-3</a> states, "By the seventh day God had finished the work He had been doing; so on the seventh day He rested from all His work. Then God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because on that day He rested from all the work of creation that He had accomplished." This divine rest sets a precedent for the Sabbath, a day of rest commanded for humanity in the Ten Commandments (<a href="/exodus/20-8.htm">Exodus 20:8-11</a>).<br><br>The Sabbath rest is not merely a cessation of work but a holy day set apart for worship and reflection on God's provision and sovereignty. It serves as a reminder of God's creative power and His covenant relationship with His people.<br><br><b>Rest in the Promised Land:</b><br><br>The concept of rest is also tied to the Israelites' journey to the Promised Land. In <a href="/deuteronomy/12-9.htm">Deuteronomy 12:9-10</a> , Moses speaks of a future rest: "For you have not yet come to the resting place and the inheritance the LORD your God is giving you. But you will cross the Jordan and settle in the land the LORD your God is giving you as an inheritance, and He will give you rest from all your enemies around you, and you will live in safety."<br><br>This rest is both physical, in terms of peace and security from enemies, and spiritual, as it signifies entering into the fullness of God's promises. The land itself becomes a symbol of divine rest and blessing.<br><br><b>Rest in the New Testament:</b><br><br>In the New Testament, the theme of rest is expanded through the teachings of Jesus Christ. In <a href="/matthew/11-28.htm">Matthew 11:28-30</a> , Jesus invites those who are weary to find rest in Him: "Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light."<br><br>This rest is not merely physical but deeply spiritual, offering relief from the burdens of sin and the law. It is a rest that comes from faith in Christ and His redemptive work.<br><br><b>Eschatological Rest:</b><br><br>The ultimate rest is eschatological, pointing to the eternal rest believers will experience in the presence of God. <a href="/hebrews/4-9.htm">Hebrews 4:9-11</a> speaks of this future rest: "So there remains a Sabbath rest for the people of God. For whoever enters God’s rest also rests from his own work, just as God did from His. Let us, therefore, make every effort to enter that rest, so that no one will fall by following the same pattern of disobedience."<br><br>This passage encourages believers to persevere in faith, looking forward to the consummation of God's promises and the eternal rest that awaits in His kingdom.<br><br><b>Conclusion:</b><br><br>The biblical concept of rest encompasses physical, spiritual, and eschatological dimensions. It is a gift from God, rooted in creation, fulfilled in Christ, and ultimately realized in eternity. Rest serves as a reminder of God's sovereignty, provision, and the hope of eternal peace with Him.<a name="grk" id="grk"></a><div class="vheading2">Greek</div><a href="/greek/373.htm"><span class="l">373. anapauo -- to give rest, give intermission from labor, by <b>...</b></span></a> <br><b>...</b> refresh NASB Word Usage give...rest (1), refresh (1), refreshed (3), rest (3), resting<br> (2), <b>rests</b> (1), take your ease (1). take ease, refresh, give rest. <b>...</b> <br><font color="#ff6600" size="-1">//strongsnumbers.com/greek2/373.htm</font><font color="#ff6600" size="-1"> - 8k</font><a name="heb" id="heb"></a><div class="vheading2">Strong's Hebrew</div><a href="/hebrew/3559.htm"><span class="l">3559. kun -- to be firm</span></a><br><b>...</b> 1), place (1), prepare (21), prepared (37), prepares (5), provide (1), provided<br> (5), provides (1), ready (7), reliable (1), rested (1), <b>rests</b> (1), right (3 <b>...</b> <br><font color="#ff6600" size="-1">/hebrew/3559.htm</font><font color="#ff6600" size="-1"> - 7k</font><p> <a href="/hebrew/5117.htm"><span class="l">5117. nuach -- to rest</span></a><br><b>...</b> 2), place (2), placed (4), put (6), put it aside (1), put down (1), put aside (1),<br> remain (3), resides (1), rest (14), rested (6), resting (1), <b>rests</b> (2), rid <b>...</b> <br><font color="#ff6600" size="-1">/hebrew/5117.htm</font><font color="#ff6600" size="-1"> - 7k</font><a name="lib" id="lib"></a><div class="vheading2">Library</div><p><a href="/library/ambrose/works_and_letters_of_st_ambrose/chapter_xxviii_a_community_rests.htm"><span class="l">A Community <b>Rests</b> Upon Justice and Good-Will. ...</span></a> <br><b>...</b> by St. Ambrose, Bishop of Milan.
