Exodus 20:8-11

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 .
