Here’s an excerpt from the blog post.

Episode two has so many beautiful things for us to consider, but three stand out. We have introduced, to us, the Sabbath rest, the Tree of Life, and the marriage covenant. All three of these things will reach through the pages of the Bible and land squarely on the person and work of Jesus.

When we consider the Sabbath rest, especially its introduction here in Genesis two, it will help us to look at Hebrews chapters three and four. In these two chapters, we see the author discussing the people of God's inability to enter the Promised Land of Canaan. They cannot enter the "rest" because of disobedience, disbelief, and lack of faith. But the author notes that a Sabbath rest still remains for the people of God. If Joshua had given God's people rest when he led them into the Promised Land, then David would not have written about another "rest" in Psalm 95. There is still a rest available to the people of the world today. We have been invited to rest from all our works (for salvation) as God also rested from all his works on the seventh day. If those who hear the good news of Jesus proclaimed to them would believe the truth of the message by faith, they will enter the rest of God and finally be free from their works as a standard of righteousness. It makes a lot more sense when you consider that Hebrews was written to Jews who were using the works of the Law as the standard for righteousness rather than faith in the finished work of God through Christ. There is doubtless much more to say on this topic, but I can't turn this blog post into a book at this time....
