because_o as_o i_o say_v your_o paper_n give_v i_o no_o occasion_n to_o say_v any_o thing_n of_o it_o however_o this_o i_o must_v say_v for_o the_o proof_n of_o what_o have_v be_v say_v i_o can_v

certain_a it_o be_v that_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n after_o his_o passion_n week_n be_v and_o be_v the_o three_o day_n after_o his_o passion_n the_o lord_n of_o life_n lay_v down_o his_o life_n and_o be_v obedient_a unto_o death_n the_o six_o day_n of_o the_o forego_n week_n which_o with_o we_o be_v call_v friday_n lay_v in_o the_o grave_a the_o remain_a part_n of_o that_o day_n that_o night_n and_o all_o the_o seven_o day_n when_o the_o old_a sabbath_n i_o think_v be_v bury_v with_o he_o and_o then_o that_o night_n and_o arise_v early_o the_o next_o morning_n which_o be_v the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n after_o his_o passion_n so_o that_o his_o bless_a body_n continue_v in_o the_o grave_a two_o whole_a night_n one_o whole_a day_n and_o some_o part_n of_o the_o two_o other_o day_n the_o six_o and_o the_o first_o of_o the_o week_n follow_v in_o all_o about_o thirty_o six_o hour_n and_o this_o be_v account_v three_o day_n and_o three_o night_n according_a to_o the_o allow_a dialect_n of_o that_o nation_n as_o one_o of_o the_o most_o learned_a in_o the_o jewish_a antiquity_n i_o think_v this_o nation_n afford_v by_o several_a instance_n make_v good_a and_o indeed_o there_o seem_v to_o be_v something_o in_o the_o scripture_n for_o it_o esther_n fast_o be_v for_o three_o day_n and_o three_o night_n yet_o on_o the_o three_o day_n after_o her_o feast_n begin_v she_o present_v herself_o before_o the_o king_n and_o invite_v he_o to_o a_o banquet_n est_z 5.1_o this_o then_o be_v evident_a the_o resurrection_n of_o christ_n notwithstanding_o any_o thing_n that_o i_o think_v can_v be_v say_v against_o the_o translation_n be_v upon_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n beside_o what_o have_v be_v say_v already_o the_o scripture_n be_v express_v for_o it_o luk._n 24.13_o the_o same_o day_n i._n e._n the_o day_n of_o christ_n resurrection_n the_o two_o disciple_n be_v travel_v to_o emaus_n and_o vers_fw-la 21._o they_o say_v this_o day_n be_v the_o three_o day_n thus_o the_o resurrection_n of_o christ_n be_v upon_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n though_o to_o speak_v proper_o it_o be_v not_o so_o much_o the_o ground_n as_o the_o occasion_n of_o the_o choice_n of_o the_o day_n because_o than_o it_o be_v manifest_v that_o the_o price_n of_o our_o redemption_n be_v both_o pay_v and_o accept_v the_o day_n of_o christ_n passion_n can_v not_o give_v the_o like_a occasion_n because_o though_o the_o price_n be_v pay_v the_o surety_n be_v not_o discharge_v the_o grave_n be_v a_o part_n of_o his_o humiliation_n he_o be_v not_o raise_v from_o all_o the_o sorrow_n of_o death_n till_o he_o be_v raise_v from_o the_o grave_a act_v 2.24_o and_o as_o the_o day_n of_o christ_n passion_n can_v not_o for_o this_o cause_n give_v this_o occasion_n for_o the_o change_n of_o the_o day_n so_o neither_o can_v the_o day_n of_o his_o ascension_n on_o that_o day_n indeed_o he_o enter_v into_o the_o place_n of_o rest_n to_o sit_v down_o on_o the_o right_a hand_n of_o the_o father_n but_o it_o be_v on_o the_o day_n of_o his_o resurrection_n that_o he_o enter_v into_o the_o state_n of_o rest_n and_o this_o day_n as_o i_o say_v on_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n give_v as_o fair_a and_o strong_a a_o ground_n for_o fix_v of_o the_o day_n of_o holy_a rest_n on_o the_o first_o day_n of_o seven_o as_o god_n rest_v from_o the_o work_n of_o the_o creation_n do_v for_o fix_v it_o at_o first_o upon_o the_o last_o of_o seven_o if_o it_o be_v say_v by_o this_o mean_v we_o blot_v out_o the_o memory_n of_o the_o creation_n which_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v do_v is_n be_v true_a it_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v do_v that_o marvellous_a great_a work_n come_v within_o the_o compass_n of_o that_o text_n psalm_n 111.4_o which_o ought_v to_o be_v have_v in_o remembrance_n and_o the_o serious_a consideration_n of_o it_o be_v a_o great_a relief_n in_o difficult_a case_n for_o what_o can_v he_o do_v that_o make_v heaven_n and_o earth_n of_o nothing_o thus_o they_o reason_v their_o heart_n into_o a_o believe_a frame_n psalm_n 124._o ult_n that_o their_o hope_n and_o their_o help_n do_v stand_v in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n that_o make_v heaven_n and_o earth_n we_o ought_v therefore_o as_o elihu_n say_v to_o magnify_v god_n in_o his_o work_n which_o man_n behold_v joh._n 36.24_o 25._o only_o the_o work_n of_o

be_v forget_v so_o the_o change_n of_o the_o day_n give_v no_o cause_n for_o it_o for_o as_o the_o first_o day_n of_o seven_o preserve_v the_o memory_n of_o our_o redemption_n so_o one_o of_o seven_o preserve_v the_o memory_n of_o our_o creation_n only_a preeminence_n be_v give_v to_o the_o work_n of_o our_o redemption_n but_o it_o will_v still_o be_v inquire_v where_o be_v the_o word_n of_o

express_a word_n in_o so_o many_o letter_n and_o word_n or_o syllable_n for_o the_o institution_n of_o the_o first_o day_n of_o seven_o but_o we_o have_v several_a particular_n which_o not_o take_v apart_o but_o lay_v altogether_o will_v clear_o and_o i_o think_v undeniable_o imply_v it_o and_o which_o be_v observe_v in_o the_o four_o proposition_n which_o way_n soever_o god_n speak_v his_o mind_n to_o we_o we_o ought_v not_o to_o despise_v he_o that_o speak_v from_o heaven_n now_o among_o all_o these_o particular_n i_o desire_v these_o may_v be_v in_o all_o sobriety_n and_o seriousness_n take_v into_o consideration_n 1._o the_o first_o be_v this_o which_o i_o think_v none_o will_v deny_v that_o jesus_n christ_n the_o mediator_n have_v power_n to_o change_v the_o day_n i_o do_v not_o i_o dare_v not_o say_v that_o he_o hah_o power_n to_o change_v the_o moral_a substance_n of_o the_o commandment_n for_o it_o be_v not_o in_o his_o commission_n he_o come_v not_o to_o destroy_v the_o law_n but_o to_o fulfil_v it_o not_o to_o change_v the_o day_n from_o one_o of_o seven_o but_o that_o he_o have_v power_n to_o change_v from_o one_o day_n of_o seven_o to_o another_o day_n that_o text_n which_o you_o quote_v three_o several_a time_n sufficient_o prove_v it_o he_o be_v lord_n of_o the_o sabbath_n i._n e._n of_o the_o day_n and_o may_v do_v with_o his_o own_o what_o he_o please_v even_o as_o he_o be_v lord_n of_o the_o vineyard_n and_o may_v let_v it_o out_o to_o what_o husbandman_n he_o please_v matth._n 21._o and_o that_o which_o we_o read_v john_n 5._o carry_v a_o probable_a appearance_n that_o even_o then_o he_o begin_v to_o manifest_v that_o he_o have_v a_o purpose_n to_o change_v the_o day_n for_o there_o we_o read_v that_o have_v heal_v the_o poor_a disease_a man_n who_o have_v be_v bedrid_a for_o thirty_o eight_o year_n together_o he_o bid_v he_o take_v up_o his_o bed_n and_o walk_v but_o why_o do_v he_o so_o this_o be_v express_o against_o the_o letter_n of_o the_o law_n there_o be_v no_o necessity_n of_o it_o for_o the_o evidence_n of_o the_o miracle_n that_o may_v have_v be_v do_v by_o his_o leap_v and_o walk_v and_o the_o like_a be_v act_v 3._o and_o act_n 14._o he_o may_v have_v go_v home_o and_o come_v again_o for_o his_o bed_n the_o next_o day_n why_o then_o may_v it_o not_o be_v to_o show_v that_o he_o have_v power_n and_o authority_n over_o that_o day_n equal_a to_o what_o he_o have_v over_o the_o disease_n to_o this_o purpose_n it_o be_v worthy_a our_o observation_n that_o all_o along_o in_o that_o chapter_n he_o justify_v his_o act_n against_o the_o cavil_v jew_n by_o assert_v his_o power_n as_o may_v be_v see_v verse_n 17._o to_o the_o end_n of_o verse_n 22._o as_o it_o appear_v by_o this_o that_o he_o have_v power_n to_o change_v the_o day_n what_o if_o it_o shall_v be_v say_v that_o he_o do_v according_a to_o his_o power_n actual_o change_v the_o day_n though_o when_o and_o how_o it_o be_v not_o

i_o have_v give_v you_o the_o sense_n wherein_o i_o conceive_v the_o word_n be_v to_o be_v understand_v thus_o we_o must_v not_o understand_v this_o proper_o according_a to_o the_o letter_n for_o the_o infinite_a glorious_a divine_a essence_n cease_v no_o more_o to_o work_v than_o he_o cease_v to_o be_v god_n neither_o do_v he_o rest_v as_o man_n do_v because_o he_o be_v weary_a isa_n 40.28_o we_o be_v therefore_o to_o understand_v his_o cease_n to_o create_v from_o the_o work_n of_o providence_n order_v and_o dispose_v all_o thing_n that_o he_o have_v make_v he_o never_o rest_v according_a to_o that_o joh._n 5.17_o have_v thus_o give_v you_o the_o sense_n now_o i_o shall_v give_v you_o my_o reason_n why_o i_o conceive_v that_o this_o example_n of_o god_n rest_v be_v not_o allege_v here_o to_o lay_v a_o obligation_n upon_o the_o conscience_n that_o the_o same_o day_n wherein_o he_o rest_v which_o be_v the_o last_o of_o seven_o aught_o to_o be_v observe_v for_o ever_o 1._o first_o it_o seem_v to_o i_o to_o relate_v to_o what_o god_n himself_o do_v rather_o than_o any_o way_n propound_v as_o a_o argument_n to_o prove_v that_o for_o which_o you_o urge_v it_o i_o will_v give_v you_o a_o parallel_n scripture_n wherein_o the_o example_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n be_v thus_o to_o be_v understand_v 1._o cor._n 11.23_o we_o have_v there_o the_o institution_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n when_o and_o how_o it_o be_v institute_v repeat_v out_o of_o the_o evangelist_n and_o christ_n example_n be_v relate_v as_o to_o the_o time_n when_o that_o it_o be_v not_o only_o in_o the_o night_n but_o in_o that_o particular_a night_n in_o which_o he_o be_v betray_v now_o this_o be_v not_o record_v as_o a_o bind_a rule_n for_o our_o imitation_n for_o then_o night_n administration_n shall_v not_o only_o of_o absolute_a necessity_n be_v observe_v but_o that_o particular_a night_n in_o which_o he_o be_v betray_v which_o be_v common_o call_v with_o we_o thursday_n night_n which_o be_v more_o than_o ever_o i_o hear_v that_o any_o one_o practise_v as_o a_o necessary_a duty_n i_o be_o sure_a the_o apostle_n paul_n do_v not_o act_n 20.7_o this_o example_n of_o christ_n then_o seem_v to_o be_v historical_o relate_v and_o whether_o the_o like_a may_v not_o be_v say_v of_o god_n example_n in_o the_o commandment_n let_v it_o be_v consider_v but_o 2._o second_o though_o god_n exemple_n be_v historical_o relate_v yet_o it_o must_v be_v acknowledge_v to_o be_v relate_v for_o some_o special_a end_n and_o purpose_n as_o the_o example_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o forementioned_a scripture_n be_v without_o all_o doubt_n mention_v upon_o the_o high_a ground_n of_o reason_n which_o to_o speak_v of_o here_o though_o it_o may_v be_v of_o good_a use_n yet_o it_o will_v be_v a_o digression_n from_o the_o matter_n in_o hand_n and_o the_o special_a end_n and_o purpose_n why_o god_n example_n be_v here_o relate_v seem_v to_o be_v this_o even_o to_o show_v that_o what_o be_v require_v in_o the_o commandment_n be_v equal_a and_o reasonable_a and_o for_o man_n good_a the_o holy_a law_n of_o god_n be_v often_o call_v judgement_n as_o for_o other_o reason_n so_o special_o i_o think_v for_o this_o to_o show_v that_o god_n require_v nothing_o but_o what_o be_v just_a and_o equal_a thus_o god_n reason_n the_o case_n with_o those_o ezek._n 18_o 25._o hear_v you_o i_o o_o house_n of_o israel_n be_v not_o my_o way_n equal_a and_o therefore_o certain_o the_o sense_n of_o the_o argument_n from_o god_n example_n which_o do_v best_a show_v the_o equity_n of_o the_o commandment_n and_o to_o be_v for_o the_o good_a of_o those_o that_o observe_v it_o be_v the_o best_a and_o true_a sense_n now_o to_o argue_v that_o because_o god_n wrought_v the_o six_o first_o day_n of_o seven_o and_o then_o rest_v the_o last_o of_o seven_o this_o carry_v no_o convince_a reason_n with_o it_o that_o therefore_o we_o ought_v first_o to_o work_n six_o day_n of_o the_o week_n and_o then_o to_o rest_v the_o last_o day_n of_o the_o week_n and_o to_o keep_v it_o holy_a to_o the_o lord_n reason_n right_a reason_n if_o that_o alone_o be_v to_o judge_v will_v rather_o judge_v it_o fit_a to_o keep_v the_o first_o of_o seven_o holy_a to_o the_o lord_n and_o see_v by_o divine_a allowance_n we_o have_v six_o for_o one_o take_v the_o six_o last_o to_o ourselves_o in_o reason_n we_o may_v hope_v that_o the_o work_n on_o earth_n will_v speed_v best_a when_o our_o work_n for_o heaven_n be_v do_v first_o but_o now_o to_o argue_v from_o god_n example_n that_o it_o bind_v neither_o to_o the_o first_o of_o seven_o nor_o to_o the_o last_o of_o seven_o but_o to_o one_o of_o seven_o carry_v very_o great_a reason_n in_o it_o for_o if_o the_o great_a god_n who_o need_v not_o one_o moment_n either_o for_o rest_n or_o for_o work_n who_o never_o faint_v who_o never_o be_v weary_a wrought_v six_o day_n and_o rest_v one_o how_o much_o more_o shall_v poor_a frail_a man_n hold_v

refreshment_n and_o thus_o much_o you_o say_v yourself_o have_v be_v already_o note_v thus_o you_o have_v my_o reason_n why_o i_o conceive_v there_o be_v nothing_o in_o god_n example_n that_o afford_v any_o help_n to_o afford_v your_o proposition_n 3._o three_o i_o find_v as_o little_a in_o god_n blessing_n and_o sanctify_v the_o sabbath-day_n for_o that_o which_o you_o allege_v it_o 1._o first_o to_o give_v the_o sense_n he_o sanctify_v it_o i._n e._n separate_v it_o from_o common_a use_n to_o be_v fill_v up_o with_o such_o duty_n as_o he_o appoint_v and_o then_o bless_a it_o i._n e._n appoint_v it_o to_o be_v a_o day_n of_o blessing_n a_o day_n natural_o consider_v be_v capable_a of_o no_o other_o blessing_n but_o only_o to_o be_v a_o mean_n of_o blessing_n according_a to_o divine_a appointment_n but_o his_o blessing_n and_o sanctify_v it_o secure_v the_o blessing_n to_o the_o right_a observer_n of_o it_o now_o for_o my_o reason_n why_o herein_o i_o dissent_v from_o you_o it_o be_v this_o he_o bless_a and_o sanctify_v it_o but_o not_o as_o it_o be_v the_o last_o day_n of_o seven_o but_o as_o it_o be_v the_o day_n of_o his_o rest_n declare_v thereby_o creation-work_n to_o be_v perfect_v neither_o be_v his_o rest_n so_o far_o as_o i_o can_v see_v the_o ground_n of_o his_o blessing_n and_o sanctify_v it_o but_o as_o consider_v in_o conjunction_n with_o the_o reason_n of_o his_o rest_n his_o finish_v the_o creation_n and_o also_o with_o the_o result_n and_o consequence_n of_o his_o rest_n viz._n his_o magnify_v and_o honour_v that_o day_n for_o the_o time_n be_v above_o all_o other_o day_n for_o the_o great_a work_n than_o in_o be_v whether_o this_o blessing_n be_v applicable_a to_o no_o other_o day_n but_o this_o as_o you_o say_v it_o be_v not_o in_o the_o three_o branch_n of_o the_o first_o reason_n for_o the_o confirm_v your_o proposition_n shall_v be_v consider_v of_o when_o it_o come_v to_o be_v speak_v to_o in_o order_n as_o

forego_v it_o be_v not_o say_v i_o mean_v in_o that_o place_n that_o he_o bless_v and_o sanctify_v the_o seven_o day_n though_o it_o be_v say_v that_o he_o do_v bless_v it_o gen._n 2._o in_o the_o sense_n that_o be_v give_v above_o but_o he_o bless_v and_o sanctify_v the_o sabbath_n day_n what_o shall_v be_v the_o reason_n of_o the_o sudden_a change_n of_o the_o expression_n i_o conceive_v it_o may_v be_v this_o and_o i_o think_v it_o may_v not_o be_v unworthy_a of_o your_o serious_a consideration_n it_o may_v be_v this_o i_o say_v because_o the_o command_n for_o the_o sabbath-day_n be_v to_o be_v of_o a_o large_a extent_n than_o the_o last_o day_n of_o seven_o i_o can_v but_o think_v that_o if_o god_n have_v intend_v to_o bind_v his_o church_n in_o all_o age_n to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n to_o the_o last_o day_n of_o seven_o as_o you_o conceive_v he_o have_v do_v he_o will_v have_v fix_v upon_o that_o day_n in_o the_o conclusion_n of_o the_o commandment_n thus_o sir_n i_o
