121問 為什麼在第四條誡命的一開始就用 了「記念」一詞？
王志勇版
121問：為什麼在第四條誡命的一開始就用 了「記念」一詞？
答：在第四條誡命的一開始就用了「記念」一詞（出20:8），
（1）部分是因為：記念此日有極大的益處，使我們由此得幫助，預備遵守（出16:23；路23:54，56；可15:42；尼 13:19），而且，在遵守的時候，使我們能夠更好地遵行 其它誡命（詩92標題，比較詩 92:13－14；結20:12，19－20），不斷地以 感恩的心記念創造與救贖的大德，這二者是基督教信仰的總結（創2:2－3；詩118:22，24，比較徒4:10－11；啟1:10）；
（2）部分是因為：我們容易忘卻此日（結22:26），因為自然之光對此日鮮有反映（尼9:14），而且守安息日限制 了我們天然的自由，也就是平日合乎上帝律法的事情此日卻不能行（出34:21）；安息日七天內 才有一天，中間世務繁多，常常使我們的心思意念無暇顧及此日，更不用說提前預備，守為聖日了（申5:14－15；摩8:5）；再者，撒但與牠的僕役也是辛苦作工，妄圖抹掉此日的榮耀，甚至想把此日從人的記憶中完全抹除，以 便塞進各種各樣的反宗教、不敬虔之事（哀1:7；耶17:21－23；尼13:15－23）。

問121：為何第四誡命是以「當記念」開始呢？
答：第四誡命以「當記念」開始，首先，是因為記念安息日帶來極大的益處：
（一）我們藉着「記念」，得到幫助來預備守這誡命；並且遵行了這誡命，就使我們更能遵守其他一切誡命；
（二）繼之以感恩的心，來記念「創造」與「救贖」兩大恩福，這是敬虔信仰的總結；
另外，是因為我們很容易忘記遵守安息日：
（一） 我們的本性不容易記住要守安息，因為我們不受拘束的天然本性，不斷的想去作在其他六日中合法的事，此誡命乃是要限制我們的放縱；
（二） 安息日是七日中唯一之日，我們在六日中忙於許多世俗之事，使我們常忘記思想此日，既沒有為守此日預備好心，也沒有分別此日為聖；
（三） 撒但與其黨羽處心積慮，想要剝奪安息日的榮美，甚至想盡辦法去除人心中對此日的記憶，導致一切不虔不義之事。

Q. 121. Why is the word Remember set in the beginning of the fourth commandment?
A. The word Remember is set in the beginning of the fourth commandment, partly, because of the great benefit of remembering it, we being thereby helped in our preparation to keep it, and, in keeping it, better to keep all the rest of the commandments, and to continue a thankful remembrance of the two great benefits of creation and redemption, which contain a short abridgment of religion; and partly, because we are very ready to forget it, for that there is less light of nature for it, and yet it restraineth our natural liberty in things at other times lawful; that it cometh but once in seven days, and many worldly businesses come between, and too often take off our minds from thinking of it, either to prepare for it, or to sanctify it; and that Satan with his instruments much labor to blot out the glory, and even the memory of it, to bring in all irreligion and impiety.

Q. 121. Why is the word Remember set in the beginning of the fourth commandment?
A. The word Remember is set in the beginning of the fourth commandment,[637] partly, because of the great benefit of remembering it, we being thereby helped in our preparation to keep it,[638] and, in keeping it, better to keep all the rest of the commandments,[639] and to continue a thankful remembrance of the two great benefits of creation and redemption, which contain a short abridgment of religion;[640] and partly, because we are very ready to forget it,[641] for that there is less light of nature for it,[642] and yet it restraineth our natural liberty in things at other times lawful;[643] that it cometh but once in seven days, and many worldly businesses come between, and too often take off our minds from thinking of it, either to prepare for it, or to sanctify it;[644] and that Satan with his instruments labours much to blot out the glory, and even the memory of it, to bring in all irreligion and impiety.[645]

Thus saith the LORD; Take heed to yourselves, and bear no burden on the sabbath day, nor bring it in by the gates of Jerusalem; Neither carry forth a burden out of your houses on the sabbath day, neither do ye any work, but hallow ye the sabbath day, as I commanded your fathers. But they obeyed not, neither inclined their ear, but made their neck stiff, that they might not hear, nor receive instruction. Nehemiah 13:15-22. In those days saw I in Judah some treading wine presses on the sabbath, and bringing in sheaves, and lading asses; as also wine, grapes, and figs, and all manner of burdens, which they brought into Jerusalem on the sabbath day: and I testified against them in the day wherein they sold victuals. There dwelt men of Tyre also therein, which brought fish, and all manner of ware, and sold on the sabbath unto the children of Judah, and in Jerusalem. Then I contended with the nobles of Judah, and said unto them, What evil thing is this that ye do, and profane the sabbath day? Did not your fathers thus, and did not our God bring all this evil upon us, and upon this city? yet ye bring more wrath upon Israel by profaning the sabbath. And it came to pass, that when the gates of Jerusalem began to be dark before the sabbath, I commanded that the gates should be shut, and charged that they should not be opened till after the sabbath: and some of my servants set I at the gates, that there should no burden be brought in on the sabbath day. So the merchants and sellers of all kind of ware lodged without Jerusalem once or twice. Then I testified against them, and said unto them, Why lodge ye about the wall? if ye do so again, I will lay hands on you. From that time forth came they no more on the sabbath. And I commanded the Levites that they should cleanse themselves, and that they should come and keep the gates, to sanctify the sabbath day. Remember me, O my God, concerning this also, and spare me according to the greatness of thy mercy.
