And the answer: Someone who lacks basic understanding.
Unfortunately, it would seem that most of us are addicted to frenzied activity - because it allows us to escape reality and prevents us from having to stop and deal with the real issues that exist between ourselves and others - and YHVH.
But the problem is, we were not created to be busy all the time, we were created for relationship and fellowship. That is why YHVH places such importance on stopping and resting.
Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth! - Psalm 46:10
How can we have a relationship with Someone we can't even stop and spend time with? How can we exalt Someone if we don't know Him? Do we have such a sense of self-importance that we cannot stop to take a breath and enjoy His fellowship?
YHVH Himself thought it was important enough and beneficial for us, so much that He did more than suggest it, He commanded it and said we would be blessed for observing the Sabbath.
Whose voice are we really listening to when we value our own wisdom over the One who created us?
