(Sabbath)
Jeremiah 17:21 (b) This time of rest was a picture of the real and true rest which the believer has in JESUS CHRIST. CHRIST is the true Sabbath. All the other sabbaths were a picture of Him. They pointed forward to Him. In these days CHRIST JESUS invites us in the words, "Come unto Me" - "I will give you rest." This rest is described more fully in Hebrews, chapter3and chapter4. (See also Colossians 2:16-17).

-(of trouble Psalm 102:2);
