About This Quote
Sabbath is not mentioned even once in the Bible, so it cannot be used as proof that the Sabbath was observed before the law. The Sabbath mentioned in the Bible is the Day of Atonement, which is an annual event. It is also not commanded by God. It was introduced by Moses, and it only lasted for a short time after his death. The Sabbath is mentioned only three times in the Bible, and each mentions that it was abolished.
