Why did Bnei Yisrael (the Children of Israel) have to observe Shabbat (Sabbath)? |
In order to test their faith in God's ability to sustain them even if they did not work for one day a week
In order to give them a chance to learn Torah on Shabbat
In order to remember that they were slaves in Mitzrayim (Egypt) and God brought them out
Because God loved them and wanted to give them a day off
