Question 57

Which is the fourth Commandment?

The fourth Commandment is, [Remember the Sabbath day to keep it holy, six days shalt thou labour and do all thy works: but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maid-servant, nor thy cattel, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: for in six days the Lord made Heaven and Earth, the Sea, and all that is in them is, and rested the seventh day; wherefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day, and hallowed it.]
