6 ' I am the Lord your God who brought you out of the land of Egypt , out of the house of slavery . 7 ' You shall have no other gods before Me. 8 ' You shall not make for yourself an idol , or any likeness of what is in heaven above e or on the earth beneath e or in the water under the earth . 9 'You shall not worship them or serve them; for I, the Lord your God , am a jealous God , visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children , and on the third and the fourth generations of those who hate Me, 10 but showing lovingkindness to thousands , to those who love Me and keep My commandments . 11 ' You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain , for the Lord will not leave him unpunished who takes His name in vain . 12 ' Observe the sabbath day to keep it holy , as the Lord your God commanded you. 13 'Six days you shall labor and do all your work , 14 but the seventh day is a sabbath of the Lord your God ; in it you shall not do any work , you or your son or your daughter or your male servant or your female servant or your ox or your donkey or any of your cattle or your sojourner who stays with you, so that your male servant and your female servant may rest as well as you. 15 ' You shall remember that you were a slave in the land of Egypt , and the Lord your God brought you out of there by a mighty hand and by an outstretched arm ; therefore e the Lord your God commanded you to observe the sabbath day . 16 ' Honor your father and your mother , as the Lord your God has commanded you, that your days may be prolonged and that it may go well with you on the land which the Lord your God gives you. 17 ' You shall not murder . 18 ' You shall not commit adultery . 19 ' You shall not steal . 20 ' You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor . 21 ' You shall not covet your neighbor's wife , and you shall not desire your neighbor's house , his field or his male servant or his female servant , his ox or his donkey or anything that belongs to your neighbor .'
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Deuteronomy 5:6-21
Commentary on Deuteronomy 5:6-22
(Read Deuteronomy 5:6-22)
There is some variation here from Luke 11. It is more necessary that we tie ourselves to the things, than to the words unalterably. The original reason for hallowing the sabbath, taken from God's resting from the work of creation on the seventh day, is not here mentioned. Though this ever remains in force, it is not the only reason. Here it is taken from Israel's deliverance out of Egypt; for that was typical of our redemption by Jesus Christ, in remembrance of which the Christian sabbath was to be observed. In the resurrection of Christ we were brought into the glorious liberty of the children of God, with a mighty hand, and an outstretched arm. How sweet is it to a soul truly distressed under the terrors of a broken law, to hear the mild and soul-reviving language of the gospel!
