Beside the sabbaths of the Lord ,.... The seventh day sabbaths, which were of his appointing, and sacred to his service and worship; on which, when any of the feasts fell, it did not hinder the observance of them, or the offering of the several sacrifices on them; nor were those of the sabbath to be omitted on the account of them: and beside your gifts ; either of the whole congregation, or of a private person, which they thought well to give of their own good will on these festivals,... read more

See the note on Exodus 12:2 . Some think creation began at this time. read more
