Definitions for Exodus 35:3
Clarke's Exodus 35:3 Bible Commentary
Ye shall kindle no fire - The Jews understand this precept as forbidding the kindling of fire only for the purpose of doing work or dressing victuals; but to give them light and heat, they judge it lawful to light a fire on the Sabbath day, though themselves rarely kindle it-they get Christians to do this work for them.
Barnes's Exodus 35:3 Bible Commentary
This prohibition is here first distinctly expressed, but it is implied Exodus 16:23.
Wesley's Exodus 35:3 Bible Commentary
35:3 Ye shall kindle no fire - For any servile work, as that of smiths or plumbers. We do not find that ever this prohibition extended farther.
