Exodus 20:8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. 9 Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:
[4] The substitute work week.
One of the bargaining chips on the table currently in negotiations across the nation and across the globe is that of a four-day work week for certain workers. According to the X-perts, persons seem to be more productive overall when they work a short week of four days.
Several countries including Spain, and South Africa are among the nations that have embarked upon a trial of a four-day workweek for certain businesses, companies and workers. In fact, a test run done in the U.K involving almost 3000 workers from a total of 61 companies resulted in 92 % of the employers retaining the four-day work week.
Since the prophecy of Daniel stating that knowledge would increase, the world in general has gradually shifted to a format of less work, less activity, and more free time which has resulted in a spike in the many diseases and illnesses which currently plague the industrial world, and many developed countries.
Exodus 20:10 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 maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates.
May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!
