'Work' in the Bible

Furthermore, anything on which they fall when they're dead becomes unclean, whether on an article of wood, clothing, skin, or a sack. And any vessel used for any work is to be washed in water, because it has become unclean until evening.

"This is to be a perpetual statute for you: On the tenth day of the seventh month, you (including both the native born and the resident alien) are to humble yourselves by not doing any work,

Six days you may work, but the seventh day is a Sabbath of rest, a sacred assembly. You are not to do any work. It's a Sabbath to the LORD wherever you live.

On the first day that you hold the sacred assembly, you are to do no servile work.

Instead, you are to bring an offering made by fire to the LORD daily for seven days. On the seventh day, you are also to hold a sacred assembly during which you are to do no servile work."

"On the same day, proclaim a sacred assembly for yourselves. You are not to do any servile work and this is to be an eternal ordinance wherever you live throughout your generations.

You are not to do any servile work. Instead, bring an offering made by fire to the LORD."

You are not to do any work that same day. It's the Day of Atonement, because your atonement is made in the presence of the LORD your God.

I'll eliminate anyone who does work that day from among his people.

You are not to do any work. This is to be an eternal ordinance throughout your generations, wherever you live.

On the first day, you are to hold a sacred assembly, when you are not to do any servile work.

For seven days, bring offerings made by fire to the LORD. The eighth day is also to be a sacred assembly for you. Bring offerings made by fire to the LORD. It's a sacred assembly. You are not to do any servile work.
