Why God keeps Sabbath?
Man keeps the Sabbath and the bible says he is refreshed after his week of work:
Ex. 23:12 Six days thou shalt do thy work, and on the seventh day thou shalt rest: that thine ox and thine ass may rest, and the son of thy handmaid, and the stranger, may be refreshed.
Did God need rest?
17 It is a sign between me and the children of Israel for ever: for in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day he rested, and was refreshed.

There are ten verses in the Bible containing the word "refreshed," in 9 of them it refers to a person. Only in Ex 31:17 it seems to refer to God but why is "he" written without capital letter?

The Sabbath a sign. Ex 31:12:17 The Sabbath is a sign of creative and redeeming power; it points to God as the source of life and knowledge; it recalls man's primeval glory, and thus witnesses to God's purpose to re-create us in His own image. {Ed 250.1}
The Sabbath and the family were alike instituted in Eden, and in God's purpose they are indissolubly linked together. On this day more than on any other, it is possible for us to live the life of Eden.Ed.250.1
