The Purpose of the Sabbath

It was a reminder that the Lord is our Creator.

It was a reminder that the Lord is the One who sanctifies us.

It was to day to worship the one who created and redeemed us.

It was a reminder that we need rest.

It was a reminder that we are dependent on the Lord, and He will provide for us.

It was a sign of the Old Covenant.

It pointed to the One who would give eternal rest.
