Primary Verses:
-
Exodus 20:9-11
-
"Six days shalt thou labour, and
do all thy work: But
the seventh day is the sabbath of YHVH 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: For in six days YHVH made heaven and earth,
the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh
day: wherefore YHVH blessed the sabbath day, and
hallowed it."
-
Exodus 23:12
-
"Six days thou shalt do thy
work, and on the
seventh day thou shalt rest: that
thine ox and thine
ass may rest, and the son of thy
handmaid, and the stranger, may be refreshed."
-
Deuteronomy 5:12-15
-
"Keep the sabbath day to
sanctify it, as YHVH thy God hath commanded thee. Six
days thou shalt labour, and do all thy work:
But the seventh day
is the sabbath of YHVH thy God: in it thou shalt not do
any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy
daughter, nor thy manservant, nor thy maidservant,
nor thine ox, nor
thine ass, nor any of thy cattle, nor
thy stranger that is within thy gates; that thy
manservant and thy maidservant may rest as well as
thou. And remember that thou wast a servant in the land
of Egypt, and that YHVH thy God brought thee out thence
through a mighty hand and by a stretched out arm:
therefore YHVH thy God commanded thee to keep the
sabbath day."
