'The Joy of Sex', Amy Tan wrote 'The Joy Luck Club', Beethoven's 'Ode to Joy' are the only ones I know for the 'joy' one.
Still pondering the other two - this is a tricky one!

The Joy of Yiddish is right.
Not the seven pillars of wisdom.
Heaven & Earth created in 7 days is close enough, I was actually looking for "God rested on the seventh day".
