In this paper we will use the final form of the biblical text to develop
the Adventist view on the biblical Sabbath. Scholars commonly use the
historical critical approach when dealing with this subject. They have been
mainly interested in the origin and historical development of the
commandment[1] and consequently they concluded that only the historical
critical methodology will produce adequate results. In our case the primary
interest is theological and doctrinal. We would like to move beyond a
biblical theology that is conceived as a descriptive historical discipline.
John J. Collins is right, "Historical criticism, consistently understood, is
not compatible with a confessional theology that is committed to specific
doctrines on the basis of faith."[2] Perhaps that is one of the reasons Pope
John II used in the Apostolic Letter Dies Domini the biblical text in its
final canonical form to develop the theology and modern relevance of the
Sabbath commandment. We will use that same approach.
The Adventist view of the Sabbath commandment as designating the
seventh day as a day of rest required by God for fellowship and communion
with Him is based on the facts that according to the Bible it originated
during creation week. It was observed by Jesus and the apostles and there is
no evidence in the biblical text to support the claim that the commandment
was transferred from the seventh day to the first day of the week.

Genesis 9:20-24 (ASV)

And Noah began to be a husbandman, and planted a vineyard: and he
drank of the wine, and was drunken. And he was uncovered within his
tent. And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father,
and told his two brethren without. And Shem and Japheth took a
garment, and laid it upon both their shoulders, and went backward, and
covered the nakedness of their father. And their faces were backward,
and they saw not their father's nakedness. And Noah awoke from his
wine, and knew what his youngest son had done unto him.

Maybe you can explain what Ham did?

Whereas it was a myth written down over a thousand years after it happened,
it is obvious that the writers had no idea as to what the relevancy of that
story was!!

It's covered under myths from the mists of time.

No one knows what the fuck it means, but some relligionist clown will
pretend he does!!
