Genesis 2:2 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Bible Comments

God rested on the seventh day Not as if he were weary, or needed rest, as we do after labour, which to suppose would be inconsistent with his infinite perfection, Isaiah 40:28: but for an example to us. Accordingly, in the fourth commandment, God's resting on the seventh day is assigned as a reason why we should rest on that day.

Genesis 2:2

2 And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.
