3 You shall kindle no fire throughout your dwellings on the Sabbath day."
3 You must not even light a fire in any of your homes on the Sabbath."
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Exodus 35:3
Commentary on Exodus 35:1-3
(Read Exodus 35:1-3)
The mild and easy yoke of Christ has made our sabbath duties more delightful, and our sabbath restraints less irksome, than those of the Jews; but we are the more guilty by neglecting them. Surely God's wisdom in giving us the sabbath, with all the mercy of its purposes, are sinfully disregarded. Is it nothing to pour contempt upon the blessed day, which a bounteous God has given to us for our growth in grace with the church below, and to prepare us for happiness with the church above?
