What the Fathers say
Western Saints
Jerome
If you turn your foot away from the Sabbath, and do your own will on my holy day, and call the Sabbath a delight, and holy to the glorious Lord, and honor him by not doing your own ways, nor finding your own will, nor speaking idle words. LXX: If you turn your foot away on the Sabbaths, so as not to do your own desires on the holy day. And you shall call the Sabbaths delightful and holy to the Lord: you shall not lift up your foot for work, nor shall you speak a word ÷ in anger from your mouth. …
Thomas Aquinas
1033. If you turn away your foot from the sabbath. Here he sets out counsel as to the worship of religious duty in the observation of the sabbath. And first, he sets out the counsel: if you turn away your foot, lest you do prohibited works; and call the sabbath delightful, that is, celebrating this kind of sabbath, as to the exercise of good works: remember that you keep holy the sabbath day (Exod 20:8). Other versions have: called instead of call, and the sense is the same.
