These verses contain the fourth commandment. This is among the earliest precepts of God. Genesis 2:3. And how much more ought its observance to be endeared to us, since the resurrection of the Lord Jesus! Matthew 28:1; Luke 24:1. I detain the Reader just to add, how highly the due observance of this holy day is esteemed of God, may be seen, Isaiah 58:13-14. How sweet the thought of the everlasting sabbath above! Hebrews 4:9; Revelation 4:11; Revelation 4:11.

8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
9 Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:
10 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:
11 For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.
