The Sabbath Is Given For Our Benefit.
Through history, the practical application of these Sabbath commandments has varied. We know that there was no such thing as a Synagogue before the return from the Babylonian Captivity. Hence, there was no Synagogue service.
We see little indication in either the Torah or Jewish literature that any sort of public worship was a part of Sabbath observance before the return from captivity.
People stayed at home and read the Torah.
They rested.
They centered their attention on YAHUAH.
No Scripture specifically defines “remembering the Sabbath day” and keeping it holy as gathering together on that day for public worship.
Participating in a public gathering for worship is not the only way which we may remember the Sabbath and keep it Kodesh (Holy)!
We should not argue, or destroy one another over the issue of how we are to observe the day.
