Is Sunday Night Mass a good idea?

Thought the article was interesting and made good points, but would like to see the source for saying that the original Hebrew word, shabbat, means God exhales. Cease, desist, rest (and in the Assyrian pssibly be completed; along with the Arabic "cut off" or "interrupt") None of these suggest exhale, nor do any of the uses of Shabbat in other places in scripture. This may have been a Rabbinic extrapolation of the word, but is not the word itself.
