Yeah and I'm still disagreeing Tack What I think is actually being said, trying to get the original meaning rather than understand the translation, is that this is like a manager starting a company, and then sitting at the helm running it when it's up and running. That's what sabbath is too. Never a day off/ a day to do nothing, more a day to run the show rather than build it. You build the computer, set it up, then get on with the task of using it for what it was intended.
Rests = sabat : ceasing
Rest = engagement of normal activities.
In Genesis this is the culmination of God setting up his temple, and then taking his place at the controls. Otherwise we have a deist scenario where God makes everything and then leaves it alone, which is theologically problematic.
