Interpretation: Tradition says God blessed and made holy the seventh day, and Jews keep it as a day of rest from Friday evening to Saturday night. In the primary lessons: Maths: an order word (7th day, 7th grade) or a fraction: a seventh of 28 is 4. Everyday: seventh grade, the seventh floor, «in seventh heaven» means very happy.
