Exodus 20:8-11
“Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labor, and do all your work; but the seventh day is a Sabbath to Yahweh your God. You shall not do any work in it, you, nor your son, nor your daughter, your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your livestock, nor your stranger who is within your gates; for in six days Yahweh made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day; therefore Yahweh blessed the Sabbath day, and made it holy.”
This passage is from the Book of Exodus, given to the people of Israel by God through Moses at Mount Sinai. It is part of the Ten Commandments, foundational laws for their covenant relationship with God and their community life.
What does 'resting' in a way that honors creation and community look like in your present life?
