Matthew 11:29
Jesus is here alluding to Jeremiah 6:16, which talks about rest for the souls of the people as well. Jesus is literally saying that his genuineness as opposed to the hypocrisy of the current religious establishment would bring rest and peace to people. God’s Truth must be obeyed, hence the yoke, but it is to be a delightful labor, not a drudgery.
