Ezekiel 20:12 - Exposition

I gave them my sabbaths, etc. As in Exodus 31:12-17 , the sabbath is treated as the central sign (we might almost say sacrament) of the Jewish Church, not only as a mark differencing them from other nations, but as between Jehovah and them , a witness of their ideal relation to each other, a means of making that ideal relation a reality.
