You do know that putting your own spin on things does not validly dispute it. You are right the exodus cites a pattern, a pattern of every 7 days. As far as it being unknown that is a fabrication of your own mind that you can not prove thus has no baring on the subject. The bible is clear it was instituted at creation. for it shows that it was there that God blessed the 7th day and it was there in Gen 2 that he set the 7th day apart for Holy use. Its there for all to see. indisputable by any biblical means. Opinion does not count.
Oh and on the whole it was not mentioned in scripture before Moses Argument. That same logic would make bestiality ok. Something not mentioned does not act as evidence and thus mutes that point at all. Plus the fact that it is indeed mentioned in Gen 2. Your arguments are made up human devising. You can't prove a single one of them.
The kingdoms discussed in Daniel 2:37-40 all ruled over people here on Earth.
And so will God’s Kingdom! The Kingdom of God will be a literal government,
just as the Roman Empire was ruling over people. That Kingdom will be set up
when Jesus Christ returns at the last trump (Revelation 11:15).
God’s Kingdom is going to break in pieces—literally smash
the kingdoms of this world. Look around, plainly that has not happened yet.
He said therefore, A certain nobleman went into a far country
to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return.Luke 19:12
His disciples "thought the kingdom of God would appear immediately" (19:11),
But the saints of the most High shall take the kingdom, and possess
the kingdom for ever, even for ever and ever.Daniel 7:18
-the saints would have to be inmortal to take and posess it forever.
“Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born
of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.”
Paul wrote, “Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit
the kingdom of God …” (1 Corinthians 15:50). If you are flesh and blood,
then you haven’t seen the Kingdom of God yet. It’s impossible!
We won’t see it until our spiritual birth occurs. And that happens when we are
resurrected to spirit. “In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump:
for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible,
and we shall be changed [to spirit]”
some good posts explaining the differance between Being begotten or being born.

We will reign for [a thousand years] in Revelation 20:2 -3- 4 -5 - 6,
this age ruled by satan today is not Christs Kingdom.
Plainly a thousand years does not mean a long period of time like people claim.
thinking saints on earth are now ruling nations with Christ is a false gospel.
Originally the 10 Commandments were given by GOD Ex 20v1; Deut 5v6-22....NOT Moses.
AFTER Ex 20v19 all the law was given THROUGH Moses BECAUSE the people REFUSED to HEAR God anymore Deut 5v25-27.
There are MANY today who still refuse to hear God on the 10 Commandments - only Moses....to their destruction. They put no 'difference between the holy Commandments of God and the 'works commandments of Moses and thus abolish all....big mistake.
By the way, this notion that God has been resting from creation since the 7th day of creation is not true.
Joh 5:14 Afterward Jesus findeth him in the temple, and said unto him, Behold, thou art made whole: sin no more, lest a worse thing come unto thee.
Joh 5:15 The man departed, and told the Jews that it was Jesus, which had made him whole.
Joh 5:16 And therefore did the Jews persecute Jesus, and sought to slay him, because he had done these things on the sabbath day.
Joh 5:17 But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh hitherto, and I work.
Joh 5:18 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.
Once you get how this connects with creation then you will understand the Gospel and how important the Sabbath still is to a believer in salvation in Christ.

We read in Isaiah 66:23, that in the future
And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another,
and from one sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith the Lord.
not sure how the Sabbath (7th day) could be abolished.
You can read from gen. to rev. and find not one verse that does away with it.
Isaiah 14:7
And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another,
and from one sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith the Lord.

Isaiah 14:7
The whole earth is at rest, and is quiet: they break forth into singing.
the reason the whole world is at rest at this time in Isaiah?
even satan will be forced into a sabbath rest, a 1000 years rest from decieving the world.the reason the whole world is at rest at this time in Isaiah?

You ignored Scriptures that are contrary to your view.
And yes the Kingdom of God does "smash" all other Kingdom's. It's called love. And it never fails. Do you believe love never fails now or in some far off time to come?
Why does Scripture say the Kingdom of God is not talk, but power? Because people were talking, but not walking in the reality of the Kingdom of God in their life.
Why does Scripture say the Kingdom of God is not food or drink, but in the Holy Spirit?
The Kingdom is here, but not as you suppose. It's not "flesh and blood". It's spiritual. If you take orders from Holy Spirit and "follow Him" you are bringing the Kingdom of God to Earth.

Revelation 21:9-27, "And there came to me one of the seven malakim who had the seven bowls full of the seven last plagues, and talked with me, saying: Come, I will show you the brides, the Lamb's wives. And he carried me away in the Spirit to a great and high mountain, and showed me that great city, the holy YHWH Shammah, descending out of heaven from YHWH, Having the glory of YHWH. And her light was similar to a most precious stone, just like a jasper stone, clear as crystal; And had a great and high wall, and had twelve gates, and at the gates twelve malakim, and names written upon them, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israyl: On the east, three gates; on the north, three gates; on the south, three gates, and on the west, three gates. And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and in them the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb. And he who talked with me had a golden reed to measure the city, and its gates, and its wall. And the city lies four square, and the length is as large as the breadth. And he measured the city with the reed: twelve thousand stadia; about 1,500 miles. The length, and the breadth, and the height of it are equal. And he measured its wall: a hundred and forty-four cubits, according to human measurements, that the malak was using; about 216 feet. And the construction of its wall was of jasper; and the city was pure gold, like clear glass. The foundations of the wall of the city were adorned with all kinds of precious stones: the first foundation was jasper, the second sapphire, the third agate, the fourth beryl, The fifth emerald, the sixth ruby, the seventh chrysolite, the eighth onyx, the ninth topaz, the tenth turquoise, the eleventh jacinth, and the twelfth amethyst. And the twelve gates were twelve pearls; each individual gate was of one pearl. And the street of the city was pure gold, as it were, transparent as glass. And I saw no pagan sanctuary in it; for THE Tabernacle OF YHWH, the body of Messiah, was in it. And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it; for the glory of YHWH does enlighten it, and its lamp is the Lamb. And the nations of those who are saved will walk in the light of it. And the kings of the earth do bring their glory and honor into it. And the gates of it will not be shut at all by day, for there will be no night there. And they will bring the glory and honor of the nations into it. And there will by no means enter into it anything that defiles, nor works abomination, neither a lie; but only those who are written in the Lamb's Book of Life."
Revelation 21:4-8 And YHWH will wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there will be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, nor will there be any more pain, for the former things have passed away. And He Who sat upon the throne, said: Behold, I make all things new. And He said to me: Write, for these words are true and faithful.And He said to me: It is done! I am Aleph and Tau, the Beginning and the End. I will give to him who thirsts of the fountain of the water of life freely. He who overcomes will inherit all things; and I will be his Father, and he will be My son. But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and worshipers of false gods, and all liars, will have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone--which is the second death."

How is this a question? God cared so much about the 10 commandments that He had Moses write them again after Moses had broken them. Moses didn't leave out the sabbath day command. Find out why the history of why the church decided to leave this out and now teaches its not important. Remember that the early christians seem to have been worshiping and congregating on the sabbath day. If we follow the logic that one command doesn't matter then why should not stealing or not committing adultery matter. Oh wait, in the modern church it really doesn't right. Most that claim to be christian don't even try to live holy for God. Lets stop pretending that we don't know what God desires from us. Also lets be honest and say the reason most don't keep the sabbath is because they are living for this world. Saturday to the modern church means to work to make more money to buy things and then go out to party.
