All that openeth the matrix is mine; and every firstling among thy cattle, whether ox or sheep, that is male.

But the firstling of an ass thou shalt redeem with a lamb: and if thou redeem him not, then shalt thou break his neck. All the firstborn of thy sons thou shalt redeem. And none shall appear before me empty.

Six days thou shalt work, but on the seventh day thou shalt rest: in earing time and in harvest thou shalt rest.

Thrice in the year shall all your men children appear before the Lord God, the God of Israel.

Sabbath Commandment

While the verse commands rest on the seventh day, it does not explicitly state that this command is part of the Ten Commandments or the broader Mosaic Law, nor does it use the specific term "Sabbath."

Seventh-Day Sabbath

While the verse explicitly mentions rest on the seventh day, it does not use the term "Sabbath," which is part of the theme's definition.
