Verse 3
Six days shall work be done ,.... Or may be done by men, any sort of lawful work and honest labour, for the sustenance of themselves and families:
but the seventh day is the sabbath of rest ; from all bodily labour and work of any kind; typical of rest by Christ and in him:
an holy convocation ; when the people were called to holy exercises, to pray and praise, and hear the word, and offer sacrifice:
ye shall do no work therein ; not any at all, see Exodus 31:15 ,
it is the sabbath of the Lord in all your dwellings : other feasts were kept in the sanctuary, in the tabernacle or temple, or where they were; but this was not only observed there and in their synagogues, but in their private houses, or wherever they were, whether, travelling by sea or land; and so the Targum of Jonathan and Aben Ezra interpret it.
