Exodus 20:8-11 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.… Truly it should be a matter of grief to us to see so much Sabbath profanation. When one of Darius' eunuchs saw Alexander setting his feet on a rich table of Darius', he fell a-weeping; Alexander asked him why he wept? He said it was to see the table which his master so highly esteemed to be now made a footstool. So we may weep to see the Sabbath, which God so highly esteems, and has so honoured and blessed, made a footstool, and trampled upon by the feet of sinners. ( T. Watson.)
