Answer

Are you aware that there are TWO different Sabbaths in the Bible? 1. The weekly Sabbath of the 10 Commandments, and 2. The yearly Sabbaths which were annual feast days or Holy Days. It was the yearly Sabbaths that ended at the cross. These ordinances surrounding the yearly Sabbaths were written by "the hand of Moses". They were laws concerning annual feast days such as The Day of Attonement and Passover (see Numbers 9:12). The weekly Sabbath, or 10 Commandment Sabbath, was written by God’s own finger on stone (Exodus 31:18) which won't nail to anything.

In the next two questions, we'll study more about the yearly Sabbaths that were nailed to the cross in Colossians 2.
