Wann wird der Schabbat in die biblische Erzählung eingeführt? James Platania vertritt die These, dass der Schabbat aus der innovativen Auslegung der Worte und Taten Gottes durch Mose hervorgeht. In der Wüste Sin leitet Mose das Volk dazu an, einen Ruhetag einzuhalten, noch bevor dieser am Sinai als Gesetz formalisiert wird.
