Genesis 2:2 - Additional Comments

He "rested"? Did He get tired? Was it a lot of work for Him? What did His Project Plan look like? Talk about lots of details! I would say rested here means paused, not stopped to regain strength. He was probably also showing mankind how we are to treat the seventh day.
