Deuteronomy 5:12 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Bible Comments

Keep the sabbath day to sanctify it Dost thou do no work on this day, which can be done as well on another? Art thou peculiarly careful on this day to avoid all conversation which does not tend to the knowledge and love of God? Dost thou watch narrowly over all that are within thy gates, that they too may keep it holy? and dost thou try every possible means to bring all men, wherever thou art, to do the same?

Deuteronomy 5:12

12 Keep the sabbath day to sanctify it, as the LORD thy God hath commanded thee.
