This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Exo_16:30 So the people rested on the seventh day.
Ver. 30. So the people rested.] According to their custom, though probably intermitted for a season in Egypt, during their hard servitude. Sed rationem reddat qui potest, aith a learned doctor; {a} are, ante legem promulgatam, in die septimo cessavit manna, nisi quia, ad exemplum Domini, ab ipsius mundi primordi invaluisset sabbati obserratio. This ceasing of manna on the seventh day shows that the Sabbath was kept from the beginning.
{a} Dr Prideaux.
