SEV Biblia, Chapter 23:12

Seis días harás tus hechos, y al séptimo día reposarás, a fin que descanse tu buey y tu asno, y tome refrigerio el hijo de tu sierva, y el extranjero.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Exodus 23:12

Verse 12. Six days thou shalt do thy work] Though they were thus bound to keep the sabbatical year, yet they must not neglect the seventh day's
rest or weekly Sabbath; for that was of perpetual obligation, and was paramount to all others. That the sanctification of the Sabbath was of great consequence in the sight of God, we may learn from the various repetitions of this law; and we may observe that it has still for its object, not only the benefit of the soul, but the health and comfort of the body also. Doth God care for oxen? Yes; and he mentions them with tenderness, that thine ox and thine ass may rest. How criminal to employ the labouring cattle on the Sabbath, as well as upon the other days of the week! More cattle are destroyed in England than in any other part of the world, in proportion, by excessive and continued labour. The noble horse in general has no Sabbath! Does God look on this with an indifferent eye? Surely he does not. "England," said a foreigner, "is the paradise of women, the purgatory of servants, and the hell of horses.

The son of thy handmaid, and the stranger-be refreshed.] pny yinnaphesh may be respirited or new-souled; have a complete renewal both of bodily and spiritual strength. The expression used by Moses here is very like that used by St. Paul, Acts iii. 19: "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing (kairoi anayuxewv, the times of re-souling) shall come from the presence of the Lord;" alluding, probably, to those times of refreshing and rest for body and soul originally instituted under the law.


Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 10-19 - Every seventh year the land was to rest. They must not plough or so it; what the earth produced of itself, should be eaten, and not lai up. This law seems to have been intended to teach dependence of Providence, and God's faithfulness in sending the larger increase whil they kept his appointments. It was also typical of the heavenly rest when all earthly labours, cares, and interests shall cease for ever All respect to the gods of the heathen is strictly forbidden. Sinc idolatry was a sin to which the Israelites leaned, they must blot ou the remembrance of the gods of the heathen. Solemn religious attendanc on God, in the place which he should choose, is strictly required. The must come together before the Lord. What a good Master do we serve, wh has made it our duty to rejoice before him! Let us devote with pleasur to the service of God that portion of our time which he requires, an count his sabbaths and ordinances to be a feast unto our souls. The were not to come empty-handed; so now, we must not come to worship God empty-hearted; our souls must be filled with holy desires toward him and dedications of ourselves to him; for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.
