THE THIRD COMMANDMENT.

Remember the Sabbath-day, to keep it holy.

[Six days shalt thou labor, and do all thy work; 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 man-servant, nor thy maid-servant,
nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: for in six
days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is,
and rested the seventh day; wherefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day,
and hallowed it.]

_What is meant by this Commandment?_

_Ans._ We should so fear and love God as not to despise His Word and the
preaching of the Gospel, but deem it holy, and willing to hear and learn
it.

THE FOURTH COMMANDMENT.

Honor thy father and thy mother, that thy days may be long upon the land
which the Lord thy God giveth thee.

_What is meant by this Commandment?_

_Ans._ We should so fear and love God as not to despise nor displease our
parents and superiors, but honor, serve, obey, love, and esteem them.
