שבת Sabbath

Observe the Sabbath day, to keep it holy, as the LORD your God commanded you. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the LORD your God. On it you shall not do any work, you or your son or your daughter or your male servant or your female servant, or your ox or your donkey or any of your livestock, or the sojourner who is within your gates, that your male servant and your female servant may rest as well as you. You shall remember that you were a slave in the land of Egypt, and the LORD your God brought you out from there with a mighty hand and an outstretched arm. Therefore the LORD your God commanded you to keep the Sabbath day. Deuteronomy 5:12-15 ESV

Weekly Release from Work: Sabbath Annual Releases from Work during Festivals: Passover Sukkoth Shavuot 7 Year Release of Workers/Debts: Send him off with goods Debts = food 7 Year Release of Working the Land 49 Year Release of Working the Land & Ownership Cycles of Release

Prepare your work outside; get everything ready for yourself in the field, and after that build your house. I passed by the field of a sluggard, by the vineyard of a man lacking sense, and behold, it was all overgrown with thorns; the ground was covered with nettles, and its stone wall was broken down. Then I saw and considered it; I looked and received instruction. A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest, and poverty will come upon you like a robber, and want like an armed man. Proverbs 24:27-34 ESV

Work is work, rarely a “called vocation” Work produces to meet immediate needs Work is fully integrated into love of God and others (grain offering) Famine and draught were frequent adversaries of work Work brings life despite the curse Sabbath and release punctuate work Rest requires trust in God’s provision Ancient Life in Israel
