Va-y'hee erev va-y'hee vo-ker yom ha-shee-shee. And
there was evening and there was morning, the
sixth day. Thus the Heavens and the Earth were
completed, and all their hosts. By the seventh
day God completed His work which He had done,
and He rested on the seventh day from all His
work which He had done. Then God blessed the
seventh day and set it apart, because in it
He rested from all His work which God had created
and made.
Blessed are You, O Lord our God, King of the Universe!
You have been pleased with us, and You have
graciously given us the Sabbath, which reminds
us of creation, and that You are the Great Creator
of all things. The Sabbath also reminds us of
salvation - Israel's salvation out of Egypt,
and the salvation made possible by Messiah Yeshua,
the Lord of the Sabbath, who gives Sabbath rest
to all who are faithful to Him.
The Sabbath also reminds us of the salvation that
Messiah will bring to Israel and the nations
when He returns, and brings rest to the entire
world. Thank You for choosing the nation of
Israel, and for giving us the Sabbath as part
of our heritage, and for allowing others to
join us in this wonderful day. Blessed are You,
O Lord, who makes the Sabbath so special!
