Answ. It was a Type or Shadow of our blessed Rest in Christ:1 For we which have believed do enter into Rest. This is the Antitype of the seventh-day Rest, when no Labour is to be done, nor any burden of Sin to be born by Believers; this is that Rest God is pleased with: and here we also rest from all Labour or Works of our own, as God did from his at first. Macarius saith,2 that Sabbath given to Moses was a Type and Shadow only of that real Rest given by God to the Soul.
