Footnotes

1: “His rest”

This is not the word “Sabbath” but a normal Greek word that means to “to rest, to lay down, to settle down and make a place home.” This same word is used throughout this passage until in verse 9 when there is a momentary switch before it goes back to using this Greek word again – I will let you know when we get there.
