Rules About the Sabbath

35 Moses gathered all the Israelite community together. He said to them, “These are the things the Lord has commanded you to do. ² You are to work for six days. But the seventh day will be a holy day, a Sabbath of rest to honor the Lord. Anyone who works on that day must be put to death. ³ On the Sabbath day you must not light a fire in any of your houses.”
