Blessings we counted in Seven days and these lead us to the Rest where God rested from his labours. "And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made."(Ge.2:3) What is the work of God that we may do? It is to believe in the Son whom he sent. "This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent."( John 6:29)
This Rest is compared to the House which wisdom built and it has seven pillars (Pr.9:1) As with seven pillars it has seven foundations. God asks, "Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? declare, if thou hast understanding." ( Job 38:4) It is called Zion.The Tabernacle of God among men is his holy habitation. "His foundation is in the holy mountains./The Lord loveth the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob./ Glorious things are spoken of thee, O city of God. Selah."(Ps.87:1-3). The everlasting covenant in seven days relate to seven pillars of this tabernacle where heaven earth and below are reconciled in Jesus Christ. "For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him."(Col.1:16)
Blessing of the seventh day (Ge.2:1-3) is for who enters therein and it is by faith.
87:2. "All the dwellings of Jacob are same as Babylon, Philistia, and Tyre, with Ethiopia and all these are dwelling place for men. But of them God has counted those blessed who are born in Zion. "The Lord shall count, when he writeth up the people, that this man was born there."(87:6)
Gates of Zion signify salvation. "Lift up your heads, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in."(Ps.24:7)
