On the start of this day, Eloheem declares a day of rest from his work, and if we look at the sabbath rules in the Torah, during sabbath, all creatures are required to rest, including the servants, and beast of burden. So, could there be other's involved in this creative work, such as some of the Angels of God? Perhaps all those who were involved in this creation work are resting, but not in the same sense that we may think of resting. For if the Angel of Gravity were to stop his task we would be in trouble, or if the Angel of Angular Momentum were to no longer conserve angular momentum, we would have serious problems, or if the Angel of the conservation of Energy were to no longer conserve energy there might be some serious consequences. So the "rest" Eloheem is talking of seems different than the one we think of. Perhaps this rest is one which allows the heavenly host to simply do the job they are designed to do, without need for approval or adjustment, unless of course Eloheem so commands it so, for special times. Clearly adjustments had to be made when Joshua ordered the sun and moon to stand still. For the Jews, and for Christians, the Sabbath day is a time to congregate, and ironically for the Jews, a day to procreate.

John 5:16-18 KJVA And therefore did the Jews persecute Jesus, and sought to slay him, because he had done these things on the sabbath day. 17 But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh hitherto, and I work. 18 Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only had broken the sabbath, but said also that God was his Father, making himself equal with God.

Matthew 12:1-9 KJVA At that time Jesus went on the sabbath day through the corn; and his disciples were an hungred, and began to pluck the ears of corn, and to eat. 2 But when the Pharisees saw it, they said unto him, Behold, thy disciples do that which is not lawful to do upon the sabbath day. 3 But he said unto them, Have ye not read what David did, when he was an hungred, and they that were with him; 4 How he entered into the house of God, and did eat the shewbread, which was not lawful for him to eat, neither for them which were with him, but only for the priests? 5 Or have ye not read in the law, how that on the sabbath days the priests in the temple profane the sabbath, and are blameless? 6 But I say unto you, That in this place is one greater than the temple. 7 But if ye had known what this meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice, ye would not have condemned the guiltless. 8 For the Son of man is Lord even of the sabbath day. 9 And when he was departed thence, he went into their synagogue:
