Home cleaning

1. Why did this conditional ban arise?
   Its roots go back to the time when people lived strictly according to the biblical calendar. Cleaning, as well as other physical activities, were not welcomed on the sixth day of the week. This is why people celebrate Shabbat every Saturday in Israel. Why are we talking about abstinence from work on Sunday? The reason for this was the peculiarities of the modern calendar, in which the last day of the week is Sunday.
   
   
   
   
   
2. Is it possible to work on this day?
   Church ministers do not forbid to work on this day, with one caveat that work will be directed to the spiritual development of a person. It is best to devote your free time to attending services, liturgies and prayers with your family. In addition to the above, you can visit relatives who have not seen for a long time, as well as engage in charitable assistance to those in need. As for cleaning, it is better to transfer this lesson to any weekday. Washing, washing or ironing is permitted only if failure to do so could lead to sin.
   
   
   
   
   
3. What else is forbidden?
   On Sunday, the church advises to refrain from any actions that lead to corruption of the soul. This applies to games on gadgets, watching a variety of TV series and films, as well as listening to music. There is not only a religious background here: for a whole week people do what they give in to various passions. Therefore, in order to protect yourself from self-destruction, you should devote at least one day a week to spiritual development.
   
   
   
   
   The clergy advise on this day to distract from worldly problems: forget about offenses, misunderstandings and petty quarrels. Under no circumstances should we quarrel. This is how you express your disrespect for God.
   
   
   

So we can summarize the above. Sunday cleaning is not something seditious and strictly forbidden. But if a person has the ability to distribute his schedule so that the restoration of order does not have to be on the weekend, then why not do it?





However, if this is not possible, do not postpone household chores to the detriment of order. Who would be better off if they lived in an untidy house or were left without delicious food?
