Deuteronomy 5:12 - Wesley's Explanatory Notes

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 you are, to do the same?

Deuteronomy 5:12

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