Peter was not writing about the Sabbath. He was writing about

IIPeter 3:5 For this they willingly are ignorant of,

that by the word of God the heavens were of OLD, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water: (Genesis 1:2)

6 Whereby the world that then *was*, being overflowed with water, perished:

7 But the heavens and the earth which are *now*, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.

To: Just mythoughts
Thank you so much for sharing your views, dear Just mythoughts!

Indeed, 2 Peter chapters 2 and 3 are speaking both to what has happened and what shall happen.

And as those verses suggest, we look back in Scripture to understand prophecy about things that have not yet come to pass. And in this case, we can look to The Fall to reveal the first insight that a 1,000 days to Adamic man is equal to a day to God.

But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die. - Genesis 2:17

And all the days that Adam lived were nine hundred and thirty years: and he died. - Genesis 5:5

But believers frequently disagree over prophecy, so I would not be surprised if you disagree with my understanding of the prophecies.

God's Name is I AM.
