"Now let us examine how God describes the Sabbath commandment when He is giving it to Israel in the wilderness at Mt. Sinai.

Q: Does He say, “I am now going to bless the Sabbath”?
A: No He says, “Remember the Sabbath day.”
The meaning of “remember” is to call to mind a past event or experience of some kind. Israel was commanded to “remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.” Exodus 20:8.
Q: Why?---Because God was now going to bless it?
A: No, God tells Israel to “remember” the Sabbath because God had already blessed it, long ago.
Q: What could possibly be more obvious?"
