| Exodus 31:13 | Speak to the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them: *See that you keep my sabbath; because it is a sign between me and you in your generations: that you may know that I am the Lord, who sanctify you. Exodus 20:8.; Ezechiel 20:12. | Sabbath. Let not the workmen do any thing for the tabernacle on that day. (Menochius) --- God reiterates and insists particularly on this commandment, which begins with the word remember; because men are so apt to forget, or to transgress a precept, which seems to interfere with those worldly concerns and profits, which they love more than God and their own souls.
