Q. 114. What reasons are annexed to the third Commandment?
A. The reasons annexed to the third Commandment are contained in these words: “The Lord your God” and “for the Lord will not hold him guiltless who takes His name in vain.”a He is the Lord and our God. Therefore His name is not to be profaned or in any way abused by us.b This is especially so because He will not at all acquit and spare the transgressors of this Commandment. Rather, He will not allow them to escape His righteous judgment,c even though many offenders escape the censures and punishments of men.d

Q. 115. Which is the fourth Commandment?
A. The
fourth Commandment is, “Remember the
Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day
is the Sabbath of the Lord your
God. In it you shall do no work: you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your
male servant, nor your female servant, nor your cattle, nor your stranger who
is within your gates. For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is
in them, and rested the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it.”
Exodus
20:8 (ESV KJ3 NASB WEB) –11 (ESV KJ3 NASB WEB)
Q. 116. What is required in the fourth Commandment?
A. The fourth Commandment requires all men to sanctify, or keep holy to God, those set times that He has appointed in His Word, expressly one whole day in seven. This day was the seventh [day of the week] from the beginning of the world to the resurrection of Christ. It is the first day of the week ever since and will continue so to the end of the world. This first day is the Christian Sabbath,a and in the New Testament it is called “The Lord’s Day.”b

Q. 118. Why is the charge of keeping the Sabbath
more specially directed to governors of families and other superiors?
A. The charge of keeping the Sabbath is more specially directed to governors of families and other superiors because they are bound not only to keep it themselves, but to see that it is observed by all those are under their charge. Also it is because superiors are often prone to hinder inferiors by assigning tasks to them.

Q. 120. What are the reasons annexed to the fourth Commandment
to more strongly enforce it?
A. The reasons annexed to the fourth Commandment to more strongly enforce it are:
· From
the equity of it. God allows us six days of seven for our own affairs and
reserves but one for Himself in these words: “Six days you shall labor and do all your work.”a
· God
strongly claims a special ownership of that day: “The seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord your God.”b
· The
example of God, who “in six days the
Lord made the heavens and the
earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day.”
· From
the blessing that God put upon that day, not only by sanctifying it to be a day
for His service, but by ordaining it to be a means of blessing to us in our
sanctifying it: “Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and
hallowed it.”c

24and when he had given thanks, he broke it,

same way also he took the cup, after supper, saying, “This cup is the new
covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me.”
28Let a person examine himself, then, and so
eat of the bread and drink of the cup. 29For anyone who eats and drinks without
discerning the body eats and drinks judgment on himself.
1 Corinthians 11:24-25, 28-29 (KJ3) Back

New Covenant in My blood; as often as you drink, do this in remembrance of Me.
28 But let a man examine himself,
and so let him eat from the bread, and let him drink from the cup;

messenger of God that it was a mistake. Why should God be angry on account of
your voice and destroy the work of your hands?

2 I became mute and still;
from good I was silent, and my pain was stirred.
3 My heart was hot within me;
while the fire burned I was musing; I spoke with my tongue:
4 O Jehovah, make me to know my
end and the limit of my days, what it is. Let me know how lacking I am.
5 Behold, like a
handbreadth You gave my days; even my life was non-existence before You;
surely every man standing is all vanity. Selah.
6 Surely a man walks about in
shadow; surely they are in an uproar in vain; he heaps up and does not know who
is gathering them.

My hope is in You.
8 Deliver me from all my
transgressions; do not set me forth as the reproach of the foolish one.
9 I was mute; I did not open my
mouth, because You had done it.
10 Turn away Your stroke from me; I
am consumed by the blow of Your hand.
11 You correct a man with rebukes
over iniquity; and as a moth You melt away what he desires. Surely every man is
vanity. Selah.
12 Hear my prayer, O Jehovah, and
give ear to my cry. Do not be silent at my tears, for I am an alien with
You, a sojourner, as were all my fathers.

And my sorrow grew worse. 3My heart was hot within me, While I was

mouth, Because it is You who have done it. 10“Remove Your plague from me; Because of

iniquity; You consume as a moth what is precious to him; Surely every man is a

21“You have heard that it was said to those
of old, ‘You shall not murder; and whoever murders will be liable to judgment.’ 22But I
say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother will be liable to
judgment; whoever insults his brother will be liable to the council; and
whoever says, ‘You fool!’ will be liable to the hell of fire. 23So if
you are offering your gift at the altar and there remember that your brother
has something against you, 24leave your gift there before the altar and
go. First be reconciled to your brother, and then come and offer your gift. 25Come to
terms quickly with your accuser while you are going with him to court, lest
your accuser hand you over to the judge, and the judge to the guard, and you be
put in prison. 26Truly, I say to you, you will never get out until
you have paid the last penny. 27“You have heard that it was said, ‘You
shall not commit adultery.’ 28But I say to you that everyone who looks
at a woman with lustful intent has already committed adultery with her in his
heart. 29If your right eye causes you to sin, tear it out and throw it away. For it
is better that you lose one of your members than that your whole body be thrown
into hell. 30And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it
off and throw it away. For it is better that you lose one of your members than
that your whole body go into hell. 31“It was also said, ‘Whoever divorces his
wife, let him give her a certificate of divorce.’ 32But I say to you that everyone who
divorces his wife, except on the ground of sexual immorality, makes her commit
adultery, and whoever marries a divorced woman commits adultery. 33“Again
you have heard that it was said to those of old, ‘You shall not swear falsely,
but shall perform to the Lord what you have sworn.’ 34But I say to you, Do not take an oath at
all, either by heaven, for it is the throne of God, 35or by the earth, for it is his footstool,
or by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King. 36And do not take an oath by your head, for
you cannot make one hair white or black. 37Let what you say be simply ‘Yes’ or ‘No’;
anything more than this comes from evil. 38“You have heard that it was said, ‘An eye
for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.’ 39But I say to you, Do not resist the one
who is evil. But if anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to him the other
also. 40And if anyone would sue you and take your tunic, let him have your cloak as
well. 41And if anyone forces you to go one mile, go with him two miles. 42Give to
the one who begs from you, and do not refuse the one who would borrow from you. 43“You
have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your
enemy.’ 44But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for
those who persecute you, 45so that you may be sons of your Father who
is in heaven. For he makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends
rain on the just and on the unjust. 46For if you love those who love you, what
reward do you have? Do not even the tax collectors do the same? 47And if
you greet only your brothers, what more are you doing than others? Do not even
the Gentiles do the same? 48You therefore must be perfect, as your
heavenly Father is perfect.

21¶ You have heard that it was said

is angry with his brother without cause shall be liable to the Judgment. And
whoever says to his brother, Raca, shall be liable to the sanhedrin; but
whoever says, Fool! shall be liable to be thrown into the fire of Hell.
23 Therefore if you offer your gift
on the altar, and remember there that your brother has something against you,
24 leave your gift there before the
altar, and go. First, be reconciled to your brother, and then, coming, offer
your gift.
25 Be well-disposed toward your
opponent quickly, while you are in the way with him, that the opponent not give
you over to the judge, and the judge give you over to the officer, and you be
thrown into prison.
26 Truly, I say to you, you shall
not come out from there, not until you pay the last kodrantes.
27¶ You have heard that it was said
to the ancients: “Do not commit adultery.”†
28 But I say to you, Everyone
looking at a woman to lust after her has already committed adultery with her in
his heart.
29 But if your right eye causes you
to stumble, take it out and throw it from you, for it is profitable to
you that one of your members should be destroyed and all your body not be
thrown into Hell.
30 And if your right hand causes
you to stumble, cut it off and throw it from you, for it is profitable
to you that one of your members should be destroyed and all your body not be

31 It was also said, Whoever puts
away his wife, “let him give her a bill of divorce.”†
32 But I say to you, Whoever puts
away his wife, apart from a matter of fornication, causes her to commit
adultery. And whoever shall marry the one put away commits adultery.
33¶ Again, you have heard that it
was said to the ancients: “You shall not swear falsely, but shall give your

No, no. For the excess of these is from the evil.

the evil; but whoever strikes you on the right cheek, turn the other to him
also.
40 And to him desiring to sue you,
and to take your tunic, allow him also to have the coat.
41 And whoever shall compel you to
go one mile, go with him two;
42 to the one asking you,
Give, and to the one wishing to borrow from you, do not turn away.
43¶ You have heard that it was
said, “You shall love your neighbor” and hate your enemy;†
44 but I say to you, Love your
enemies; bless those cursing you, do well to those hating you; and pray for those
abusing and persecuting you,
45 so that you may become sons of
your Father in Heaven. Because He causes His sun to rise on the evil and
the good, and sends rain on the just and unjust.
46 For if you love those loving
you, what reward do you have? Do not even the taxcollectors do the same?
47 And if you only greet your

so?
48 Therefore, you be perfect even

‘You good-for-nothing,’ shall be guilty before the supreme court; and whoever
says, ‘You fool,’ shall be guilty enough to go into the fiery hell. 23“Therefore
if you are presenting your offering at the altar, and there remember that your
brother has something against you, 24leave your offering there before the altar

your right hand makes you stumble, cut it off and throw it from you; for it is
better for you to lose one of the parts of your body, than for your whole body
to go into hell. 31“It was said, ‘Whoever sends his wife away, let
him give her a certificate of divorce’; 32but I say to you that everyone who
divorces his wife, except for the reason of unchastity, makes her commit
adultery; and whoever marries a divorced woman commits adultery. 33“Again,
you have heard that the ancients were told, ‘You shall not make false vows, but
shall fulfill your vows to the Lord.’ 34“But I say to you, make no oath at all,
either by heaven, for it is the throne of God, 35or by the earth, for it is the footstool

eye, and a tooth for a tooth.’ 39“But I say to you, do not resist an evil
person; but whoever slaps you on your right cheek, turn the other to him also. 40“If
anyone wants to sue you and take your shirt, let him have your coat also. 41“Whoever
forces you to go one mile, go with him two. 42“Give to him who asks of you, and do not
turn away from him who wants to borrow from you. 43“You have heard that it was said, ‘You
shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ 44“But I say to you, love your enemies and
pray for those who persecute you, 45so that you may be sons of your Father who

resurrection, therefore, of the seven, whose wife will she be? For they all had

15In those days I saw in Judah people
treading winepresses on the Sabbath, and bringing in heaps of grain and loading
them on donkeys, and also wine, grapes, figs, and all kinds of loads, which
they brought into Jerusalem on the Sabbath day. And I warned them on the day
when they sold food. 16Tyrians also, who lived in the city, brought in
fish and all kinds of goods and sold them on the Sabbath to the people of
Judah, in Jerusalem itself! 17Then I confronted the nobles of Judah and
said to them, “What is this evil thing that you are doing, profaning the
Sabbath day? 18Did not your fathers act in this way, and did not
our God bring all this disaster on us and on this city? Now you are bringing
more wrath on Israel by profaning the Sabbath.” 19As soon as it began to grow dark at the
gates of Jerusalem before the Sabbath, I commanded that the doors should be
shut and gave orders that they should not be opened until after the Sabbath.
And I stationed some of my servants at the gates, that no load might be brought
in on the Sabbath day. 20Then the merchants and sellers of all kinds of
wares lodged outside Jerusalem once or twice. 21But I warned them and said to them, “Why
do you lodge outside the wall? If you do so again, I will lay hands on you.”
From that time on they did not come on the Sabbath. 22Then I commanded the Levites that they
should purify themselves and come and guard the gates, to keep the Sabbath day
holy. Remember this also in my favor, O my God, and spare me according to the
greatness of your steadfast love.
Nehemiah 13:15-22 (KJ3) Back
15¶ In those days I saw in Judah
ones treading wine presses on the Sabbath, and bringing in sheaves and loading
asses; and also wine, grapes, and figs, and all burdens, which they brought
into Jerusalem on the Sabbath day. And I testified against them on the
day they sold food.
16 Men of Tyre also lived in it,
who brought fish and all wares, and were selling on the Sabbath to the sons of
Judah, even in Jerusalem.
17 And I contended with the nobles
of Judah and said to them, What is this evil thing that you do, defiling
the Sabbath day?
18 Did not your fathers do this,
and did not our God bring all this evil on us and on this city? Yet you bring
more wrath on Israel by defiling the Sabbath.
19 And it happened, when the gates
of Jerusalem began to be dark before the Sabbath, I said that the gates should
be shut, and said that they should not be opened until after the Sabbath. And I
stationed some of my servants at the gates, so that there should be no
burden brought in on the Sabbath day.
20 And the merchants and sellers of
all the wares stayed the night outside Jerusalem once or twice.
21 Then I testified against them
and said to them, Why are you staying around the wall? If you do it again,
I will send a hand against you. From that time they did not come on the
Sabbath.
22 And I said to the Levites that
they should be cleansing themselves, and they should come guarding the gates,
to sanctify the Sabbath day. O my God, remember me for this also and spare me
according to the greatness of Your mercy.
Nehemiah 13:15–22 (NASB95) Back
15In those days I saw in Judah some who were
treading wine presses on the sabbath, and bringing in sacks of grain and
loading them on donkeys, as well as wine, grapes, figs and all kinds of loads,
and they brought them into Jerusalem on the sabbath day. So I admonished them
on the day they sold food. 16Also men of Tyre were living there who
imported fish and all kinds of merchandise, and sold them to the sons of Judah
on the sabbath, even in Jerusalem. 17Then I reprimanded the nobles of Judah and
said to them, “What is this evil thing you are doing, by profaning the sabbath
day? 18“Did not your fathers do the same, so that our God brought on us and on
this city all this trouble? Yet you are adding to the wrath on Israel by profaning
the sabbath.” 19It came about that just as it grew dark at the
gates of Jerusalem before the sabbath, I commanded that the doors should be
shut and that they should not open them until after the sabbath. Then I
stationed some of my servants at the gates so that no load would enter on the
sabbath day. 20Once or twice the traders and merchants of every
kind of merchandise spent the night outside Jerusalem. 21Then I warned them and said to them, “Why
do you spend the night in front of the wall? If you do so again, I will use
force against you.” From that time on they did not come on the sabbath. 22And I
commanded the Levites that they should purify themselves and come as
gatekeepers to sanctify the sabbath day. For this also remember me, O my God,
and have compassion on me according to the greatness of Your lovingkindness.
Nehemiah 13:15-22 (WEB) Back
15 In those days I saw some men treading

Jerusalem on the Sabbath day; and I testified against them in the day in which
they sold food.
16 Some men of Tyre also lived there, who
brought in fish and all kinds of wares, and sold on the Sabbath to the children
of Judah, and in Jerusalem.
17 Then I contended with the nobles of Judah,
and said to them, “What evil thing is this that you do, and profane the Sabbath
day?
18 Didn’t your fathers do this, and didn’t our
God bring all this evil on us, and on this city? Yet you bring more wrath on
Israel by profaning the Sabbath.”
19 It came to pass that when the gates of
Jerusalem began to be dark before the Sabbath, I commanded that the doors
should be shut, and commanded that they should not be opened until after the
Sabbath. I set some of my servants over the gates, so that no burden should be
brought in on the Sabbath day.
20 So the merchants and sellers of all kinds of
wares camped outside of Jerusalem once or twice.
21 Then I testified against them, and said to
them, “Why do you stay around the wall? If you do so again, I will lay hands on
you.” From that time on, they didn’t come on the Sabbath.
22 I commanded the Levites that they should
purify themselves, and that they should come and keep the gates, to sanctify

Matthew 12:1–13 (ESV) Back
1At that time Jesus went through the
grainfields on the Sabbath. His disciples were hungry, and they began to pluck
heads of grain and to eat. 2But when the Pharisees saw it, they said
to him, “Look, your disciples are doing what is not lawful to do on the
Sabbath.” 3He said to them, “Have you not read what David did
when he was hungry, and those who were with him: 4how he entered the house of God and ate
the bread of the Presence, which it was not lawful for him to eat nor for those
who were with him, but only for the priests? 5Or have you not read in the Law how on the
Sabbath the priests in the temple profane the Sabbath and are guiltless? 6I tell
you, something greater than the temple is here. 7And if you had known what this means, ‘I
desire mercy, and not sacrifice,’ you would not have condemned the guiltless. 8For the
Son of Man is lord of the Sabbath.” 9He went on from there and entered their
synagogue. 10And a man was there with a withered hand. And they
asked him, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?”—so that they might accuse
him. 11He said to them, “Which one of you who has a sheep, if it falls into a pit
on the Sabbath, will not take hold of it and lift it out? 12Of how much more value is a man than a
sheep! So it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath.” 13Then he said to the man, “Stretch out your
hand.” And the man stretched it out, and it was restored, healthy like the
other.

not read what David did, when he and those with him hungered?
4 How he entered into the house of
God, and he ate the Loaves of the Presentation, which it was not lawful for him
to eat, nor for the ones with him, but for the priests only?

that on the sabbaths the priests in the temple profane the sabbath and are
guiltless?

into their synagogue.
10 And, behold, a man having a withered
hand was there. And they asked Him, saying, Is it lawful to heal on the
sabbaths? (that they might accuse Him).
11 But He said to them, What man of
you will be who will have one sheep, and if this one fall into a pit on the
sabbaths, will he not lay hold of it and raise it up?
12 How much more, then, does a man
excel a sheep! So that it is lawful to do well on the sabbath.

out your hand! And he stretched out. And it was restored sound as the other.

his companions, 4how he entered the house of God, and they ate the
consecrated bread, which was not lawful for him to eat nor for those with him,

they questioned Jesus, asking, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?”—so that
they might accuse Him. 11And He said to them, “What man is there among you

hold of it and lift it out? 12“How much more valuable then is a man than
