The man led me to the outer gate at the east side of the Temple area. The gate was closed,

He is to provide the sin offerings, the grain offerings, the offerings to be burned whole, and the fellowship offerings, to take away the sins of the people of Israel."

On every New Moon Festival and every Sabbath people of every nation will come to worship me here in Jerusalem," says the LORD.

For those who receive that rest which God promised will rest from their own work, just as God rested from his.
