Exodus 20:8 *Remember that thou keep holy the sabbath day.

Exodus 31:13.; Deuteronomy 5:14.; Ezechiel 20:12.
Sabbath day, on which rest from servile work is prescribed, that we may worship God with greater fervour. Saturday was kept holy by the Jews, in honour of God's resting. The apostles have authorized us to keep Sunday instead, to commemorate the mysteries of Christ's resurrection, etc.
