Colossians 2:16 Let therefore no man judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of a holy day, or of the new moon, or of the SABBATH DAYS:
Colossians 2:17 Which are a SHADOW of things to come; but the BODY (YOU) are OF CHRIST.
Hebrews 10:1 For THE LAW having a SHADOW of good things to come ....
Romans 8:2 For the LAW of the SPIRIT OF LIFE (the TRUE) in Christ Jesus hath made me free from THE LAW OF SIN AND DEATH (the shadow).
Hebrews 4:8 And he spake in a certain place of the seventh day on this wise, And God DID REST the seventh day (the shadow) from all HIS WORKS.
Hebrews 4:10 And he (YOU) that has ENTERED INTO THAT REST (the TRUE SABBATH), he (YOU) also have ceased from your works, as God did from his.
Hebrews 4:3 For we which have believed DO ENTER INTO REST (the TRUE SABBATH) ....the WORKS WERE FINISHED from the foundation of the world.
God spoke ALL THE WORDS before the foundation of the world, then RESTED, those words are being FULFILLED in the ORDER that he SPOKE THEM.
Christ rested when he finished speaking those words, you DESTINY, that you will be conformed into the IMAGE OF CHRIST, are inside those words spoken before the foundation of the world.
CEASE FROM YOUR WORKS and enter into the TRUE SABBATH, YOU WILL BE THE IMAGE OF CHRIST.
1 Corinthians 15:58 ....always abounding in the WORK OF THE LORD (those words spoken before the foundation of the world) ...
Philippians 1:6 Being confident of this one thing (God's words will be fulfilled), that He (THE WORD) which hath began a good work IN YOU WILL PERFORM IT until the the DAY (you become the IMAGE) of Jesus Christ.
Please give me a list of those words.

You can probably google your question to find an answer.
Your question is somewhat double fold.
What were the OT biblical laws concerning the Sabbath?
What were the ordinances created by the Rabbi's concerning keeping the Sabbath holy?
One question addresses what God commanded and the other addresses what Jesus called the "traditions of men".
