The Hebrew word Schabbath from which our English word is derived , signifies rest , and is applied to all solemn festivals , equally with that one day of every week devoted to the worship of God

  • Ezekiel 20:21 "they polluted my sabbaths." Three evangelists say , the transaction recorded in this #### Verse , occurred upon the first day of the week , early in the morning , about sunrising , and John says , while it was yet dark. רו [Strong's G3796] , ףבגגבפשם [Strong's G4521] , does not signify "in the evening of sabbath ," but "sabbaths." Hence , the great feast having been concluded , the term "end of the sabbaths" denotes the time very clearly. Again , it may be observed that the Jews , speaking of their passover , sometimes speak according to their civil computation , wherein they measured their days from sun-rising to sun-rising. Sometimes according to their sacred computation , which was from sun-set to sun-set. This reconciles
  • Numbers 28:18 which seems to make the fourteenth day of the first month , the first day of unleavened bread
  • Mark 16:1
  • Mark 16:2
  • Luke 23:56
  • Luke 24:1
  • Luke 24:22
  • John 20:1-10
