Jesus is not the Sabbath. The Sabbath is the seventh day of the week--Saturday-from Friday at sunset until Saturday at sunset. Jesus is the Lord of the Sabbath. The Sabbath was made for man--all mankind--not just the Jews (Mark 2:27-28). The Sabbath is one of the feasts of God--not a feast of the Jews (Leviticus 23:1-3). Jesus never abolished the Sabbath. It is one of the 10 Commandments (Exodus 20:8-11). Jesus said that if we are to enter into life, we must keep the commandments (Matthew 19:16-18).

try an accurate translation of Leviticus:(kind of Englishy but makes the point)

23:1 God spoke to Moses, telling him to

23:2 speak to the Israelites and say to them: There are special times that you must celebrate as sacred holidays to God. The following are My special times:

23:3 You may do work during the six weekdays, but Saturday is a Sabbath of Sabbaths. It is a sacred holiday to God, when you shall do no work. Wherever you may live, it is God's Sabbath.
