“Ye shall keep my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuary: I am the Jehovah.”
Leviticus 26:2
"The seventh day Sabbaths",
and the seventh
year sabbaths; especially the former are meant. In which religious worship was
given to the one true and living God. And therefore, the observance of them is
strictly enjoined. And hence this law follows closely upon the former, though Aben
Ezra restrains it to the sabbatical years, or seventh year sabbaths, as he
applies the sanctuary in the following clause to the jubilee year, which is
said to be holy (Lev. 26:12). Supposing that this refers unto and stands in
strict connection with the laws of the preceding chapter, concerning the
sabbatical (Lev. 25:1), and jubilee years (Lev. 25:8).
