1Moreover, concerning the Sabbath, it is written in the ten commandments which God spoke to Moses face to face on Mount Sinai.
2And sanctify the Sabbath of the Lord with clean hands and a clean heart.
3And in another place he says: If my children keep the Sabbath, then I will exercise my mercy upon them.
4Of the Sabbath he speaks at the beginning of the creation: And God made in six days the works of his hands.
5And he finished on the seventh day and rested on it and sanctified it.
6Give heed, children, to what it means: He finished in six days.
7It means that in six thousand years the Lord will bring all things to consummation.
8For a day with him means a thousand years, and he himself testifies: Behold, a day of the Lord shall be as a thousand years.
