“Six days shall work be done: but the seventh day is the sabbath of rest, an holy convocation; ye shall do no work therein: it is the sabbath of the LORD in all your dwellings.”
King James Version (KJV)
23:3 Ye shall do no work therein - So it runs in the general for the sabbath day, and for the day of expiation, #Lev 23:28|, excluding all works about earthly employments whether of profit or of pleasure; but upon other feast days he forbids only servile works, as #Lev 23:7|,21,36, for surely this manifest difference in the expressions used by the wife God must needs imply a difference in the things. In all your dwellings - Other feasts, were to be kept before the Lord in Jerusalem only, whither all the males were to come for that end; but the sabbath was to be kept in all places, both in synagogues, and in their private houses.
Sixe dayes shall worke be done, but the seuenth day is the Sabbath of rest, an holy conuocation; ye shall doe no worke therein: it is the Sabbath of the Lord in all your dwellings.
