In the time of the end every divine institution is to be restored. The breach made in the law at the time the Sabbath was changed by man, is to be repaired. God's remnant people, standing before the world as reformers, are to show that the law of God is the foundation of all enduring reform and that the Sabbath of the fourth commandment is to stand as a memorial of creation, a constant reminder of the power of God. In clear, distinct lines they are to present the necessity of obedience to all the precepts of the Decalogue. Constrained by the love of Christ, they are to co-operate with Him in building up the waste places. They are to be repairers of the breach, restorers of paths to dwell in. See verse 12. 679

Reformation

Profeten benytter utvetydige ord for at beskrive den specielle gerning, som skal udføres af den lille håndfuld mennesker, som skal bygge muren. "Varer du din fod på sabbatten, så du ej driver handel på min helligdag, kalder du sabbatten en fryd, Herrens helligdag ærværdig, ærer den ved ikke at arbejde, holder dig fra handel og unyttig snak, da skal du frydes over Herren; jeg lader dig færdes over landets høje og nyde din fader Jakobs eje. Thi Herrens mund har talt." Es. 58, 13-14.
