The fourth commandment may be the most misunderstood of all the commandments, particularly for non-Jewish believers. It is helpful to remember that Jesus kept the Sabbath and affirmed it's value. But what is the purpose of this day? And when is it? The Sabbath was created by God as a gift focusing on REST and WORSHIP. Originally, the Sabbath was Saturday (Sundown on Friday through Sundown on Saturday). But, for new covenant believers, we worship on "the Lord's Day" because is the day that Christ was raised from the dead. As such, the "Sabbath Day" can be viewed in this light as well. The principle is the same. We need a day set aside for rest and worship. In our hectic and stuffed schedule, we have not allowed MARGIN for God. This is breaking the fourth commandment. Matthew 11 helps us shape the Sabbath, even more importantly, as a foreshadow of the rest we find in Christ. We can rest in salvation, in freedom from sin, and hope for eternity.
