And He has given us the Knowing we need but people never listen.

He even gave us rest days (at least we know the Sabbath of the 7th day even if we do not know the other Sabbaths) but people do not listen nor obey, so how can they enter into God's rest?

Resting while alive on the earth. That is what Psalm 23 and especially psalm.127:2

It is vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat the bread of sorrows: for so he giveth his beloved sleep.

So why people work as headless chickens my mum says, there are some who work a little and obtain the bread of the day to go back home in rest and joy and peace and sweetness, for The Lord indeed supplies all we need for those who truly trust in Him.

Hebrews 4:10
For the one who has once entered His rest
has also rested from [the weariness and pain of] his [human] labors,
just as God rested from [those labors uniquely] His own

Matthew 11:28
Come to Me,
all who are weary and heavily burdened
[by religious rituals that provide no peace],
and I will give you rest
[refreshing your souls with salvation].

We are resting slash having holiday
(i.e. having a break, having a rest from labour, rest from work)

True that.

True this comment too

_{Personal text: Jesus is not a theologian. He is God who told stories.}

Holiday is a pervertion meant to cover the fact that it is God Who gave us the gift and concept of the rest days known "Holy Day"!

It is not man who gives you a day of rest pervatingly called holiday but God Himself?

So when Jesus Christ said He has come to give rest to all those who will trust and obey Him, He instead meant they cannot have rest until after they are dead and gone from this earth - Matthew 11 vs 28 - 30?

Shouldn't that then mean you ought to understanding from Him alone and always then?.

Resting place? Why must there be a particular place for the rest that is from God?

What is Rest? Does awareness of God's judgment of death on mankind, eternal damnation which is God's judgment against the sinners in the Kingdom of God, God's reward for the righteous in the Kingdom of God, etc., nullify Rest as defined by God? If we are to consider the Old Covenant Sabbath for our benefit, a day of rest is a day when one does not work for perishable bread. We are talking of a day when one only engages in activities that bring in no perishable rewards to one's existence. Knowledge, even of God's wrath and blessings to come where not said to play a role in affirming or nullifying the Sabbath-only rest that was prescribed as Holy rest for His people.
