Shlama Akhi Andrew,
Just a fine point on the translation of verse 9: "Lemashbathu" is most certainly an infinitive verb, as indicated by Lamed-Mem proclitics and the waw ending- all indicators that this is not a noun, but an infinitive -"to keep Sabbath" , or "to rest".
Burkta b'Meshikha Yeshua,
Dave
