! Canonical references

!! Christ's quotes.

I hold that 100% of these are countering the Pharisaical tendency to "add to" the Commandments. That is, there is no ordinance against healing on the Sabbath, so to add that as a rule is placing an undue burden on יהוה‎'s people.

!! Paul's quotes

Here, it is a bit more challenging. I have simple explanations for these, but the [writings of Justin Martyr, Ignatius, and Tertullian|http://panoptic.com/rking/Holy+Day+of+the+Week#_Strong_Arguments_Against__Jewish_law_] oppose my explanations.

* Romans 14:5,6: "One person esteems one day above another, another esteems every day alike. Let each be fully convinced in his own mind. He who observes the day, observes it to the Lord; and he who does not observe the day, to the Lord he does not observe it. He who eats, eats to the Lord . . ."
** Explanation: (TODO)
* Colossians 2:16+ "Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days"
** Explanation A: that the question is not whether to keep the Sabbath (or new moons, or feasts), but wheather to fast or eat on those days.
** Explanation B: that it is saying "Do not let those outside the Body judge you": http://www.eternalgod.org/qa/7975 and: http://www.latterdayisrael.com/stick-of-yehudah/hebrew-roots-apologetics/let-no-pagan-judge-you/
** Explanation C: http://www.ucg.org/christian-living/did-apostle-paul-abolish-sabbath/#Colossians_2_16_14583700
* Galatians 4:9-10 "but now that you have come to know God, or rather to be known by God, how can you turn back again to the weak and beggarly elemental spirits, whose slaves you want to be once more? You observe days, and months, and seasons, and years!"

!! Sabbath-observance of Paul

* Acts 13:44 "And the next Sabbath nearly the whole city assembled to hear the word of God."
* Acts 16:13 "And on the Sabbath day we went outside the gate to a riverside, where we were supposing that there would be a place of prayer; and we sat down and began speaking to the women who had assembled."
* Acts 17:2 "And Paul, as his manner was, went in unto them, and three Sabbath days reasoned with them out of the scriptures."
* Acts 18:4,11 "And he reasoned in the synagogue every Sabbath." ... "And he continued there a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them."
