Deuteronomy 5:12-15

Here is another way that the Sabbath sanctifies you. The emphasis here in the Fourth Commandment is that it be kept so that you and I will remain free. He says, "Remember on this day that you were a slave." The implication is obvious. The Sabbath draws one to a remembrance of the past, and our spiritual slavery in Egypt, and where we are headed. We are headed towards the Land.

The Sabbath looks back, and it looks forward—but with somewhat different perspective than it did in Exodus 20. Before it was merely tied to the Creation. The fact was that God does still have a creative process going on. But now we find that His creative process is designed to produce freedom. That is, to continue the liberty from sin—and from Satan, and from this world—that God accomplished through the death of Jesus Christ.
