Can We Observe the the Jewish Sabbath still as a Church or person?

1) not sure what you are asking but I will answer both ways
A) Would it be permitted? OT law put the limit of travel to 2,000 cubits (0.6 miles)
B) Yes, Driving is a way to relax for me.

2) How is driving different from driving -personally, I prefer driving (to relax) than walking!

3) sounds good --- but on the the other hand - visiting family - to relax

I believe the limitation was because it took activity to walk.

would it though?

Depending on who you are talking to, yes. There are elevators that stop at every floor to keep people from pushing a button, creating a spark, and starting a “fire” on the sabbath. I’m sure firing on six cylinders at 2,000 rpm would be an egregious offense.

Driving a couple of hours is far different than walking a couple of hours..

Without going to the extreme extent that the Jewish rabbis do, I agree with you.

Visit family, Visit friends. Watch movies. read a book.. something to not only rest my body, but my mind..
