Today is day 292 and we are studying The Fourth Commandment.

292. Why was Israel to rest on the Sabbath?

Israel was called to rest in remembrance that God had freed them

from slavery and that God rested from his work of creation, bringing joyful balance and rhythm to life, work, and worship. (Genesis

2:1–2; Exodus 20:11; 23:12; Deuteronomy 5:12–15)

We will conclude today by praying the Heth Stanza of Psalm 119 (verses 57-64) found on page 615 of the Book of Common Prayer (2019).
