The Sabbath commandment is one of the Ten Commandments.
Here are some scriptures that speak of the six days in which work can be done, and the Sabbath day.
Here are scriptures that speak of the Sabbath.
Here we have scripture about the new covenant from the prophet Jeremiah.
The following scripture may be important but I'm not sure just how or if it pertains to the Sabbath or not. Some may have faith but don't observe the Sabbath. Otherwise, if that is not the case, this verse is not speaking about the Sabbath. Leaving it out though would not help. The question is if the new covenant, which is for the house of Israel and the house of Judah, and is God's law written upon hearts and minds, includes the Sabbath, the Ten Commandments, and the whole of old covenant law, or the Law given to the nation of Israel at Mount Sinai, His covenant He made with them, of which as a proselyte or convert to Israel and Judaism while remaining a United States Citizen and a Christian, I have an interest, in being a new covenant believer and having chosen to observe Torah even though I have never been to Israel. At the present time I observe outside the land of Israel. But I am also hoping people come to a correct understanding with the entirety of God's word whether they are of Israel or not, in the church the body of Christ or not.
Is this that some have learned to observe and some haven't? Is it that some who are of faith are of Israel and some are not? Is it that a person of faith may or may not observe the Sabbath? Is it that if you have faith in God you may observe the Sabbath but you are not saved by it (as with all of the law you are not saved by keeping it or being perfect) so if you do so you ought to obey (or observe it) in faith? These might be some questions people ask or questions which may be important to people whether they have come into observing Torah or not. It is even a commandment that may be observed by a person wanting to be obedient to God, who is learning about the laws of the nation of Israel or his relationship to God's law or wanting to observe God's law. God accepts those who obey (who obey Him) in faith.
Remember, salvation is in Yeshua (Jesus) as with the new covenant. In Jeremiah we read about the new covenant, and in the gospels we see that the new covenant came in Jesus.

Here we have scripture about the new covenant from the prophet Jeremiah.
Jeremiah 31:31-34 NASB - 31 "Behold, days are coming," declares the LORD, "when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah, 32 not like the covenant which I made with their fathers in the day I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt, My covenant which they broke, although I was a husband to them," declares the LORD. 33 "But this is the covenant which I will make with the house of Israel after those days," declares the LORD, "I will put My law within them and on their heart I will write it; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people. 34 "They will not teach again, each man his neighbor and each man his brother, saying, 'Know the LORD,' for they will all know Me, from the least of them to the greatest of them," declares the LORD, "for I will forgive their iniquity, and their sin I will remember no more."
The following scripture may be important but I'm not sure just how or if it pertains to the Sabbath or not. Some may have faith but don't observe the Sabbath. Otherwise, if that is not the case, this verse is not speaking about the Sabbath. Leaving it out though would not help. The question is if the new covenant, which is for the house of Israel and the house of Judah, and is God's law written upon hearts and minds, includes the Sabbath, the Ten Commandments, and the whole of old covenant law, or the Law given to the nation of Israel at Mount Sinai, His covenant He made with them, of which as a proselyte or convert to Israel and Judaism while remaining a United States Citizen and a Christian, I have an interest, in being a new covenant believer and having chosen to observe Torah even though I have never been to Israel. At the present time I observe outside the land of Israel. But I am also hoping people come to a correct understanding with the entirety of God's word whether they are of Israel or not, in the church the body of Christ or not.
Romans 14:5 NASB - 5 One person regards one day above another, another regards every day alike. Each person must be fully convinced in his own mind.
Is this that some have learned to observe and some haven't? Is it that some who are of faith are of Israel and some are not? Is it that a person of faith may or may not observe the Sabbath? Is it that if you have faith in God you may observe the Sabbath but you are not saved by it (as with all of the law you are not saved by keeping it or being perfect) so if you do so you ought to obey (or observe it) in faith? These might be some questions people ask or questions which may be important to people whether they have come into observing Torah or not. It is even a commandment that may be observed by a person wanting to be obedient to God, who is learning about the laws of the nation of Israel or his relationship to God's law or wanting to observe God's law. God accepts those who obey (who obey Him) in faith.
Remember, salvation is in Yeshua (Jesus) as with the new covenant. In Jeremiah we read about the new covenant, and in the gospels we see that the new covenant came in Jesus.
