COMMAND

Exodus 20:9 KJV – 9 Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:

Deuteronomy 5:13 KJV – 13 Six days thou shalt labour, and do all thy work:

OTHER VERSES

[NOTE: The verses are cut short of completion. With all these passages the emphasis after the “six days thou shalt do thy work”, is about the Sabbath rest. The focus of the 9th commandment is that you SHALL WORK. Its unclear if the command is:

  1. “You should do any work you have to in these 6 days”. or
  2. “You must for for 6 days”.

Commandment 8 dealt with the Sabbath Rest. This is just about the work]
