6 17 18 More specially of som Iericho was after this maner by Iosuah abandoned Those that do appertain more specially to som by reason of their special profession are especially but of two sorts such as appertained to the preests and such as appertained to the Nazarites The preests were such as God had chosen from among the rest of the people neerer unto him and to have much dealing with him on the peoples behalfe Vnto them therfore he praescribeth certain rules of special sanctification somwhat more streightly than unto others As namely first generally to al that they should r Le. 10 8-11 not drink wine or any strong drink when it was their course to be about the office of their administration to the end that they might the better be able to judge betwixt the holie and unholie between the clean and unclean and better teach the children of Israel as they ought And that ſ Lev. 21 16-24 none of them of the seed of Aaron having a blemish in any part of their bodie might execute the preests office and yet might live with them and take their part of the holie offerings as much as others Two other laws there were appointed to the preests but not unto everie of them alike the one of marrieng the other of moorning and other duties to frinds departed Concerning marrieng the law that was given was to restrain the abuse of unseemly marrieng of themselves The t Lev. 21 13-15 high preest mght not marrie any that had plaid the harlot or been divorced or was a widow but only a maid The u Lev. 21 7 8. inferior preests might marrie widows but not such as had been polluted or defamed or before divorced from any other Concerning moorning and such other funeral duties the high preest might x Lev. 21 10-12 not moorn for any or do such things at funerals as others commonly were woont and might The inferior preests had som more libertie but y Lev. 21 1-6 yet restrained to certain persons that were neer unto them as father mother son daughter brother and unmarried sister otherwise they might not have ought to do with the funerals of any no not of the magistrate As also not only Aaron the high preest z Lev. 10 6 7. but Eleazar and Ithamar likewise being under preests though heer they have libertie to moorn for their brethren yet there they were forbid to moorn for those two of their brethren that were then suddēly destroied with fire for their sin belike bicause they were taken away in Gods displeasure and they could not wel moorn for them but that they must seem somwhat to repine against the severitie of Gods judgements The Nazarites were such as tooke upon them a special vow of holines not cōstrained but as it were of their own accord Seeing therof that needs they would be Nazarites that is separate from the common sort and drawing neerer for the time unto the Lord he gave unto them also certain outward observations of special holines that so in that voluntarie separation of theirs they might not so easily take in vain the name of God but do indeed as they did praetend and tooke upon them to observe And the law that was given to the a Nu. 6 1-21 Nazarite was no more but to teach how or in what maner to b Vers 1-5 consecrate himselfe how in the time of his separation he might c Vers 6-9 be defiled how that pollution was to be d Vers 9-12 clensed again and how he had to e Vers 13-21 finish his vow of separation But the soldier also hath a special charge f De. 23 9-11 if he know himselfe to be unclean to avoid himselfe out of the camp for the time 24 The other point of this their dutie And that they must be zealous withal that was to be directed to the person of God is that they should be zealous towards God or earnestly bent to the way of godlines and religion so to cal them from the common corruption of the world in being so carelesse of religion or so faint in the worship of God or any good work and yet marvelous earnestly bent on the vain and corruptible things of this praesent world The things that do appertain heerunto are three First the requiring of the seventh dais rest then the commending of the scriptures unto them last of al the allowing of vowes Concerning the seventh dais rest it was ordeined First in the sabbaoth that a Ex. 20 8-11 23 12.31 13-17 34 21.35 1-3 Lev. 19 3 30.26 2. Deu. 5 12-15 everie seventh day should be a sabbaoth that is a day of rest the meaning wherof was that the people themselves withal their families their cattel also and that al such strangers as dwelt among them with their families and cattel should that day cease from al maner of their usual labors and keep it an holie rest unto the Lord. To the end they might the better observe it he doth both give them to understand that as he doth therby b Lev. 19 2 3. require holines of them so doth he himselfe c Exo. 20 11. 31 13. sanctifie those that truly observe it and so performeth in them his own request and although he do so praecisely require it that he alloweth not so much as the d Exo. 35 3. kindeling of a fire on that day no not e Exo. 34 21. in seed time nor in harvest yet maketh he the f Exo. 31 14 15. 35 2. breach therof to be death As also he sheweth them another commoditie that hangeth theron which himselfe to their own use requireth that is that he wil have that a rest-day g Exo. 20 10. 23 12. that themselves their servants and cattel may rest theron from their woonted labors which must needs make them a great deal more fresh to continu their labor Then in the studie of the scriptures The scriptures were commended unto them that they should have a special regard of them and be very studious both to know to do the law of the Lord. To this they were lead three maner of wais The first was that they should have the words of the law written and that verie plainly k Deut. 27 2 3 4 8. first upon certain great stones set up and plastered for the same purpose at the entrance of the land so soone as they shal com thither then l Deu. 6 5-9 in their own houses upon the gates and posts therof yea and to have the same m Deut. 11 18-21 bound to their hands and as a frontlet between their eies to put them in better remembrance therof The next was that they were commanded to have n Num. 15 37-41 Deu. 22 12. fringes and ribbands of blew silk upon their garments to put them in remembrance of the law of the Lord to do after it
