5. • Before Google Instant, the typical searcher took
more than 9 seconds to enter a search term,
and we saw many examples of searches that
took 30-90 seconds to type.
• Using Google Instant can save 2-5 seconds per
search.
• If everyone uses Google Instant globally, we
estimate this will save more than 3.5 billion
seconds a day. That’s 11 hours saved every
second.

12. Exodus 20:8-11
8 Remember the sabbath day, and
keep it holy. 9For six days you shall
labor and do all your work. 10But the
seventh day is a sabbath to the LORD
your God; you shall not do any work—
you, your son or your daughter, your
male or female slave, your livestock, or
the alien resident in your towns.

13. 11For in six days the LORD made heaven
and earth, the sea, and all that is in
them, but rested the seventh day;
therefore the LORD blessed the
sabbath day and consecrated it.

14. Mark 2
23 One sabbath he was going through
the cornfields; and as they made their
way his disciples began to pluck heads
of grain. 24The Pharisees said to him,
‘Look, why are they doing what is not
lawful on the sabbath?’… 27Then he
said to them, ‘The sabbath was made
for humankind, and not humankind
for the Sabbath.”

15. “To the biblical mind…the Sabbath as a
day of rest, as a day of abstaining from
toil, is not for the purpose of recovering
one’s lost strength and becoming fit for
the forthcoming labor. The Sabbath is a
day for the sake of life… The Sabbath is
not for the sake of the weekdays; the
weekdays are for the sake of the
Sabbath.”
Abraham Heschel, Sabbath

16. Romans 14:5
Some judge one day to be better than

17. Mark 1
32 That evening, at sunset, they
brought to him all who were sick or
possessed with demons. 33And the
whole city was gathered around the
door. 34And he cured many who were
sick with various diseases, and cast
out many demons; and he would not
permit the demons to speak, because
they knew him.

18. Mark 1
35 In the morning, while it was still
very dark, he got up and went out to a
deserted place, and there he prayed.
36And Simon and his companions
hunted for him. 37When they found
him, they said to him, ‘Everyone is
searching for you.’

19. Mark 6
30 The apostles gathered around
Jesus, and told him all that they had
done and taught. 31He said to them,
‘Come away to a deserted place all by
yourselves and rest a while.’ For many
were coming and going, and they had
no leisure even to eat.”
