'Work' in the Bible

“This shall be a permanent statute for you: in the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, you shall humble your souls and not do any work, whether the native, or the alien who sojourns among you;

‘For six days work may be done, but on the seventh day there is a sabbath of complete rest, a holy convocation. You shall not do any work; it is a sabbath to the Lord in all your dwellings.

On the first day you shall have a holy convocation; you shall not do any laborious work.

But for seven days you shall present an offering by fire to the Lord. On the seventh day is a holy convocation; you shall not do any laborious work.’”

On this same day you shall make a proclamation as well; you are to have a holy convocation. You shall do no laborious work. It is to be a perpetual statute in all your dwelling places throughout your generations.

You shall not do any laborious work, but you shall present an offering by fire to the Lord.’”

You shall not do any work on this same day, for it is a day of atonement, to make atonement on your behalf before the Lord your God.

As for any person who does any work on this same day, that person I will destroy from among his people.

You shall do no work at all. It is to be a perpetual statute throughout your generations in all your dwelling places.

On the first day is a holy convocation; you shall do no laborious work of any kind.

For seven days you shall present an offering by fire to the Lord. On the eighth day you shall have a holy convocation and present an offering by fire to the Lord; it is an assembly. You shall do no laborious work.
