that_o very_a sabbath_n day_n where_o of_o god_n speak_v in_o his_o four_o come_v then_o be_v these_o word_n in_o the_o come_v to_o wit_n the_o sabbath_n day_n a_o ceremony_n and_o abolish_v the_o reason_n of_o this_o consequence_n be_v because_o these_o word_n sabbath_n day_n in_o their_o two_o text_n be_v in_o their_o nature_n the_o same_o and_o of_o the_o same_o extent_n with_o the_o like_a or_o same_o word_n sabbath_n day_n in_o the_o four_o come_v and_o it_o must_v be_v so_o for_o they_o oppose_v thes_n word_n sabbath_n day_n in_o their_o two_o text_n unto_o the_o like_a word_n sabbath_n day_n in_o the_o four_o come_v the_o one_o to_o abolish_v the_o other_o this_o be_v so_o i_o proceed_v if_o that_o these_o word_n in_o the_o four_o come_v to_o wit_n sabbath_n day_n be_v a_o

to_o sanctify_v it_o i_o have_v put_v the_o word_n in_o controversy_n in_o a_o parenthesis_n as_o you_o see_v now_o let_v thes_n minister_n take_v a_o way_n those_o word_n in_o the_o parenthesis_n and_o you_o take_v quiet_a away_o the_o very_a subject_a matter_n of_o the_o lord_n speech_n you_o leave_v a_o roof_n with_o out_o a_o foundation_n god_n say_v remember_v the_o sabbathday_n but_o if_o now_o there_o be_v no_o sabbath_n day_n for_o that_o it_o be_v abolish_v as_o they_o say_v how_o then_o shall_v a_o man_n remember_v it_o god_n command_v to_o keep_v the_o sabbath_n day_n deut._n 5.12_o but_o if_o there_o be_v no_o sabbath_n day_n how_o shall_v a_o man_n keep_v it_o again_o god_n say_v sanctify_v it_o but_o how_o shall_v we_o sanctify_v it_o if_o it_o be_v not_o what_o can_v we_o remember_v to_o sanctify_v a_o nothing_o so_o thus_o i_o have_v show_v that_o the_o very_a commandment_n the_o four_o come_v be_v utter_o nullify_v by_o their_o obiectiones_fw-la and_o make_v to_o speak_v nonsense_n or_o a_o nothing_o this_o be_v my_o first_o argument_n my_o second_o argument_n be_v take_v from_o the_o word_n sabbath_n in_o their_o own_o sense_n &_o use_v of_o it_o for_o when_o i_o urge_v they_o with_o the_o name_n sabbath_n in_o the_o four_o come_v they_o turn_v i_o off_o with_o this_o that_o the_o hebrew_n word_n sabbath_n signify_v a_o rest_n in_o english_a well_o be_v it_o so_o a_o rest_n let_v it_o signify_v from_o these_o two_o text_n then_o i_o argue_v again_o thus_o if_o the_o rest_n in_o the_o four_o come_v be_v abolish_v they_o be_v the_o four_o come_v itself_o utter_o abolish_v but_o that_o the_o rest_n in_o the_o four_o come_v be_v abolish_v themselves_o confess_v it_o in_o their_o object_v two_o text_n for_o in_o thes_n text_n be_v the_o word_n sabbath_n see_v exod._n 31.13_o col._n 2.16_o which_o word_n sabbath_n signify_v a_o rest_n now_o they_o do_v oppose_v the_o word_n sabbath_n which_o signify_v a_o rest_n in_o exod._n 31.13_o col._n 2.16_o against_o the_o same_o word_n sabbath_n in_o the_o four_o comm_n which_o signi_v a_o rest_n also_o prove_v unto_o we_o that_o the_o sabbath_n and_o rest_n in_o the_o four_o come_v be_v a_o sign_n and_o a_o shadow_n and_o so_o abolish_v by_o these_o text_n exod._n 31._o col._n 2._o which_o being_n so_o hence_o it_o be_v apparent_a by_o their_o own_o work_n and_o sense_n that_o not_o only_o the_o hebrew_n word_n sabbath_n be_v a_o abolish_v ceremony_n and_o shadow_n but_o also_o that_o the_o rest_n which_o it_o signify_v be_v also_o a_o ceremony_n and_o a_o abolish_v shadow_n and_o so_o i_o come_v to_o prove_v the_o consequence_n namely_o that_o if_o the_o rest_n in_o the_o four_o come_v be_v abolish_v then_o be_v the_o four_o come_v utter_o and_o for_o ever_o abolish_v this_o i_o make_v good_a thus_o if_o that_o rest_n from_o our_o servile_a labour_n be_v abolish_v which_o be_v once_o in_o the_o four_o come_v command_v then_o now_o we_o may_v labour_v in_o our_o

thus_o i_o have_v finish_v my_o argument_n raise_v out_o of_o their_o two_o text_n wherehy_a i_o have_v prove_v that_o from_o their_o objection_n and_o exposition_n there_o follow_v not_o only_o a_o

and_o providence_n of_o god_n to_o incline_v the_o heart_n of_o our_o church_n to_o give_v god_n a_o sabbath_n unto_o this_o day_n but_o it_o lie_v at_o the_o pit_n brink_n and_o at_o the_o last_o

they_o call_v they_o but_o unto_o the_o clergy_n unto_o minister_n in_o special_a as_o we_o may_v understand_v by_o the_o word_n teach_v man_n so_o so_o then_o this_o portion_n of_o scripture_n it_o be_v direct_v unto_o the_o ministry_n &_o the_o will_n of_o christ_n to_o they_o be_v that_o they_o shall_v both_o teach_v to_o the_o people_n and_o also_o practice_v before_o they_o unto_o the_o world_n end_n every_o jot_n and_o title_n of_o the_o law_n now_o in_o the_o next_o place_n we_o have_v christ_n his_o argument_n to_o move_v &_o persuade_v minister_n to_o these_o two_o duty_n and_o because_o minister_n be_v of_o two_o sort_n some_o though_o but_o a_o small_a some_o will_v teach_v and_o practice_v every_o jot_n &_o title_n of_o the_o law_n to_o the_o utmost_a of_o their_o power_n but_o other_o will_v neither_o teach_v nor_o practice_v the_o same_o therefore_o have_v christ_n fit_v his_o argument_n to_o both_o sort_n &_o by_o name_n to_o such_o minister_n as_o do_v both_o teach_v &_o practice_v to_o they_o our_o saviour_n promise_v this_o blessing_n that_o they_o shall_v be_v call_v great_a in_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n oh_o that_o there_o be_v yet_o many_o more_o

least_o of_o these_o commandment_n suppose_v we_o the_o time_n command_v in_o the_o four_o come_v where_o the_o very_a lest_o of_o the_o commandment_n because_o they_o use_v to_o cale_fw-la it_z but_o a_o circumstance_n and_o the_o like_a why_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o so_o long_o as_o it_o be_v a_o commandment_n though_o the_o least_o of_o all_o the_o commandment_n yet_o christ_n denounce_v this_o curse_n unto_o such_o minister_n as_o refuse_v to_o teach_v the_o people_n this_o least_o come_v and_o refuse_v to_o practice_v it_o before_o the_o people_n they_o have_v please_v to_o miscale_v it_o

then_o he_o will_v have_v a_o account_n of_o his_o whole_a law_n not_o of_o piece_n and_o parcel_n of_o it_o as_o we_o please_v thus_o we_o see_v what_o the_o duty_n of_o minister_n be_v namely_o to_o teach_v the_o people_n to_o observe_v the_o lord_n seven_o day_n sabbath_n which_o be_v one_o of_o the_o commandment_n though_o you_o make_v it_o the_o least_o and_o it_o be_v their_o duty_n also_o

but_o how_o sarre_o off_o be_v the_o practice_n of_o most_o teacher_n from_o observe_v the_o mind_n &_o will_n of_o christ_n in_o stead_n of_o practise_v the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n in_o their_o

this_o which_o they_o count_v the_o least_o of_o god_n commandment_n &_o urge_v they_o to_o keep_v every_o jot_n and_o title_n of_o god_n law_n &_o so_o the_o lord_n sabbath_n day_n they_o teach_v

gross_o if_o this_o be_v not_o botch_a &_o cobble_v to_o thrust_v this_o new_a sabbath_n day_n into_o a_o old_a commandment_n i_o know_v not_o what_o be_v to_o coble_o be_v to_o put_v a_o piece_n of_o

yearly_a sabbath_n day_n which_o be_v never_o write_v in_o the_o moral_a law_n levit._n 23.24.39_o now_o this_o their_o text_n may_v be_v understod_a only_o of_o these_o yearly_a &_o ceremonial_a

be_v mean_v in_o this_o text_n i_o answer_v that_o this_o all_o may_v be_v mean_v of_o the_o ceremonial_a sabbath_n that_o all_o those_o sabbath_n be_v abolish_v for_o there_o be_v a_o all_o of_o they_o for_o they_o be_v many_o so_o then_o we_o may_v understand_v this_o text_n to_o abolish_v all_o sabbath_n general_o that_o be_v the_o generality_n of_o all_o yearly_a sabbath_n since_o there_o

the_o very_a same_o commandment_n forbid_v we_o to_o labour_v in_o some_o one_o of_o those_o 6_o day_n unlese_v you_o will_v think_v that_o god_n permit_v we_o to_o work_v upon_o a_o day_n and_o revoke_v his_o permission_n again_o and_o all_o under_o one_o breath_n wherefore_o see_v that_o god_n give_v we_o leave_v to_o work_v by_o his_o four_o come_v upon_o all_o those_o 6_o day_n which_o go_v before_o the_o jew_n sabbath_n day_n &_o our_o saturday_n the_o seven_o day_n therefore_o if_o we_o will_v have_v any_o sabbath_n day_n from_o the_o four_o come_v we_o must_v betake_v we_o to_o the_o seven_o day_n our_o saturday_n the_o jew_n sabbath_n day_n &_o that_o because_o god_n have_v permit_v we_o to_o work_v upon_o any_o day_n save_o the_o saturday_n thus_o much_o for_o my_o four_o

be_v a_o seven_o day_n beside_o the_o which_o there_o be_v no_o seven_o day_n that_o day_n must_v be_v our_o sabbath_n day_n but_o saturday_n the_o seven_o day_n be_v a_o seven_o day_n beside_o which_o there_o be_v no_o seven_o day_n therefore_o saturday_n the_o seven_o day_n must_v be_v our_o sabbath_n day_n for_o proof_n of_o the_o mayor_n or_o first_o proposition_n many_o divine_n be_v of_o judgement_n that_o the_o seven_o part_n of_o time_n be_v god_n &_o to_o be_v consecrate_v to_o his_o worship_n &_o service_n as_o moral_n wherefore_o all_o such_o divine_n must_v approve_v of_o

to_o be_v understod_a of_o a_o seven_o day_n and_o so_o they_o will_v have_v a_o seven_o day_n to_o be_v in_o force_n though_o not_o the_o seven_o day_n wherefore_o since_o they_o hold_v a_o seven_o

much_o for_o proof_n of_o the_o major_a i_o come_v now_o unto_o the_o proof_n of_o the_o minor_a or_o second_o proposition_n to_o wit_n that_o saturday_n the_o seven_o day_n be_v a_o seven_o day_n

forasmuch_o as_o we_o embrace_v this_o sermon_n which_o christ_n preach_v upon_o the_o mount_n as_o concern_v we_o &_o our_o time_n we_o must_v therefore_o embrace_v this_o part_n of_o his_o sermon_n

therefore_o the_o promise_n of_o this_o land_n can_v belong_v unto_o we_o christian_n hereunto_o i_o answer_v that_o the_o apostle_n do_v apply_v this_o promise_n unto_o christianes_n that_o live_v not_o in_o canaan_n as_o you_o may_v read_v eph._n 6.1.2.3_o neither_o do_v the_o lord_n say_v that_o thy_o day_n may_v be_v long_o in_o the_o land_n of_o canaan_n but_o general_o thus_o that_o thy_o

this_o her_o prayer_n to_o ratify_v the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n which_o be_v the_o jew_n sabbath_n hereunto_o i_o reply_v that_o by_o this_o her_o prayer_n she_o must_v be_v understod_a to_o pray_v to_o god_n to_o incline_v our_o heart_n either_o to_o the_o keep_n of_o the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n or_o to_o the_o keep_n of_o the_o lord_n day_n sabbath_n now_o strong_o i_o be_o persuade_v that_o the_o reverend_a bishope_n of_o our_o church_n will_v not_o say_v that_o the_o four_o come_v do_v command_v we_o to_o keep_v the_o lord_n day_n &_o therefore_o when_o we_o pray_v to_o god_n to_o incline_v our_o heart_n to_o the_o keep_n of_o the_o four_o come_v we_o can_v understand_v our_o prayer_n to_o be_v mean_v of_o the_o lord_n day_n for_o it_o be_v not_o the_o day_n call_v lord_n day_n which_o the_o four_o com._n injoin_v but_o it_o be_v the_o day_n call_v sabbath_n day_n as_o you_o see_v in_o the_o commandment_n and_o it_o be_v not_o the_o lord_n day_n which_o the_o minister_n pronounce_v in_o read_v the_o four_o come_v but_o it_o be_v the_o sabbath_n day_n which_o he_o speak_v of_o neither_o be_v it_o the_o 8_o day_n or_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n which_o the_o four_o come_v speak_v of_o but_o it_o be_v the_o seven_o day_n and_o last_o day_n of_o the_o week_n which_o the_o commandment_n mention_v neither_o be_v it_o the_o 8_o day_n or_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n or_o lord_n day_n where_o in_o god_n rest_v at_o the_o creation_n but_o it_o be_v the_o seven_o day_n wherein_o god_n rest_v as_o the_o commandment_n say_v neither_o be_v it_o the_o lord_n day_n which_o the_o commandment_n say_v god_n bless_v and_o hallow_v but_o it_o be_v the_o day_n call_v sabbath_n day_n which_o god_n bless_a and_o hallow_a as_o the_o four_o commandment_n speak_v wherefore_o when_o the_o minister_n say_v remember_v to_o sanctify_v the_o sabbath_n day_n if_o then_o we_o shall_v pray_v thus_o lord_n incline_v our_o heart_n to_o keep_v the_o lord_n day_n do_v we_o not_o so_o make_v answer_n as_o sometime_o deaf_a man_n do_v who_o when_o a_o man_n cale_v for_o a_o knife_n they_o bring_v he_o the_o sheath_n &_o when_o the_o minister_n tell_v the_o people_n which_o day_n be_v the_o sabbath_n day_n say_v but_o the_o seven_o day_n be_v the_o sabbath_n of_o the_o lord_n if_o then_o we_o shall_v pray_v thus_o lord_n incline_v our_o heart_n to_o keep_v the_o 8_o day_n be_v we_o not_o then_o like_o those_o that_o come_v to_o church_n when_o the_o sermon_n be_v do_v &_o that_o go_v to_o sell_v comodity_n the_o day_n after_o the_o fair_a yea_o be_v not_o this_o to_o babble_n with_o god_n and_o to_o profane_v this_o holy_a ordinance_n of_o prayer_n when_o the_o prayer_n of_o the_o church_n can_v be_v take_v but_o ij_o way_n it_o be_v a_o very_a absurd_a thing_n &_o uncharitable_a for_o any_o man_n to_o expound_v they_o in_o the_o worse_a sense_n which_o be_v a_o false_a and_o absurd_a sense_n wherefore_o since_o the_o lord_n day_n can_v be_v mean_v in_o our_o public_a prayer_n therefore_o the_o sabbath_n day_n must_v be_v mean_v for_o there_o be_v none_o other_o but_o one_o of_o these_o two_o that_o can_v be_v imagine_v and_o thus_o i_o have_v prove_v the_o 3d_o branch_n of_o my_o minor_n to_o wit_n that_o our_o church_n do_v pray_v to_o god_n daily_o to_o incline_v our_o heart_n to_o keep_v the_o sabbath_n day_n &_o so_o these_o 3_o point_n be_v prove_v 1._o that_o the_o apostle_n keep_v the_o sabbath_n day_n 2._o that_o the_o primitive_a church_n after_o they_o keep_v it_o 3._o that_o our_o church_n daily_o pray_v to_o god_n to_o keep_v it_o wherefore_o if_o the_o constant_a practice_n of_o the_o apostle_n &_o the_o religiouse_a practice_n of_o the_o most_o ancient_a and_o primi_fw-la tive_a church_n after_o the_o apostle_n &_o the_o daily_a prayer_n of_o our_o church_n will_v any_o thing_n avail_v with_o we_o then_o must_v we_o sanctify_v the_o seven_o day_n saturday_n sabbath_n argum._n xiii_o i_o have_v think_v to_o have_v add_v no_o more_o by_o way_n of_o proof_n for_o confirmation_n of_o the_o sabbath_n day_n but_o further_a search_n have_v minister_v unto_o i_o more_o argument_n &_o these_o they_o be_v which_o follow_v my_o 13_o argument_n for_o confirmation_n of_o the_o seven_o sabbath_n be_v because_o we_o must_v imitate_v god_n who_o keep_v the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n and_o thus_o i_o frame_v it_o whosoever_o must_v imitate_v god_n in_o his_o keep_n of_o the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n they_o must_v keep_v the_o saturday_n seven_o day_n sabbath_n but_o we_o must_v imitate_v god_n in_o his_o keep_n of_o tho_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n therefore_o we_o must_v keep_v the_o saturday_n seven_o day_n sabbath_n for_o the_o mayor_n it_o be_v clear_a for_o since_o god_n keep_v the_o saturday_n seven_o day_n sabbath_n if_o we_o must_v imitate_v he_o then_o must_v we_o keep_v the_o same_o day_n in_o order_n when_o iâ—_n come_v and_o so_o do_v
because_o we_o may_v together_o with_o antinomians_n libertine_n &_o anabaptist_n as_o well_o abolish_v all_o the_o moral_a law_n by_o the_o scripture_n as_o with_o they_o abolish_v the_o saturday_n sabbath_n and_o thus_o i_o argue_v if_o we_o may_v together_o with_o libertine_n antinomian_o &_o anabaptist_n abolish_v by_o the_o scripture_n the_o saturday_n sabbath_n as_o a_o jewish_a ceremony_n then_o may_v we_o with_o they_o also_o abolish_v by_o the_o scripture_n the_o whole_a law_n of_o god_n even_o all_o the_o ten_o commandment_n as_o jewish_a ceremony_n but_o neither_o we_o may_v nor_o yet_o may_v those_o lawless_a christian_n of_o libertine_n antinomian_o &_o anabaptist_n abolish_v by_o the_o scripture_n the_o whole_a law_n of_o god_n ten_o commandment_n as_o jewish_a ceremony_n

all_o sabbath_n not_o but_o that_o they_o keep_v the_o lord_n day_n as_o a_o sabbath_n together_o with_o those_o protestant_a church_n among_o who_o they_o live_v but_o they_o keep_v it_o only_o as_o

without_o offence_n to_o any_o they_o will_v and_o do_v profess_v it_o that_o they_o will_v but_o to_o keep_v any_o sabbath_n as_o a_o divine_a institution_n and_o as_o a_o ordinance_n of_o god_n and_o by_o virtue_n of_o the_o four_o commandment_n this_o they_o do_v reject_v as_o jewish_a and_o ceremonial_a and_o for_o their_o warrant_n among_o other_o text_n of_o scripture_n as_o we_o do_v

and_o so_o the_o whole_a law_n be_v abolish_v both_o moral_a and_o ceremonial_a well_o then_o hence_o i_o thus_o reason_n if_o the_o sabbath_n in_o the_o moral_a law_n be_v abolish_v by_o col._n 2.17_o because_o there_o be_v mention_n of_o sabbath_n abolish_v then_o must_v not_o the_o moral_a law_n be_v abolish_v also_o by_o eph._n 2.15_o col._n 2.14_o &_o heb._n 7.12_o because_o here_o be_v

sabbath_n in_o the_o ceremonial_a law_n unto_o the_o sabbath_n enjoin_v in_o the_o moral_a law_n why_o may_v not_o they_o extend_v the_o word_n law_n which_o be_v only_o understode_v of_o the_o

2.14_o there_o be_v mention_n of_o ordinance_n &_o commandment_n in_o the_o plural_a number_n and_o therefore_o be_v all_o god_n ordinance_n and_o all_o god_n commandment_n whither_o in_o the_o

the_o moral_a law_n as_o to_o join_v with_o they_o in_o cast_v away_o the_o sabbath_n day_n command_v in_o the_o moral_a law_n we_o may_v as_o well_o cast_v away_o by_o the_o scripture_n misapply_v even_o all_o god_n commandment_n and_o all_o god_n ordinance_n as_o god_n sabbath_n day_n we_o may_v as_o well_o turn_v anabaptist_n in_o

the_o saturday_n sabbath_n be_v that_o it_o must_v be_v moral_a because_o if_o you_o abolish_v the_o sabbath_n day_n by_o the_o scripture_n you_o must_v also_o by_o the_o scripture_n abolish_v the_o law_n of_o the_o sabbath_n day_n which_o be_v the_o four_o commandment_n and_o thus_o i_o argue_v if_o by_o the_o interpretation_n of_o the_o scripture_n you_o abolish_v the_o saturday_n or_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n then_o by_o the_o interpretation_n of_o the_o scripture_n must_v you_o also_o abolish_v the_o law_n of_o the_o saturday_n or_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n which_o be_v the_o four_o come_v but_o no_o man_n may_v by_o the_o interpretation_n of_o the_o scripture_n abolish_v the_o law_n of_o the_o saturday_n or_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n which_o be_v the_o four_o commandment_n therefore_o no_o man_n may_v by_o the_o interpretation_n of_o the_o scripture_n abolish_v the_o saturday_n or_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n for_o the_o minor_a it_o be_v out_o of_o question_n for_o every_o man_n grant_v that_o the_o law_n of_o the_o sabbath_n the_o four_o come_v be_v moral_a and_o that_o it_o be_v horrible_a impiety_n to_o abolish_v it_o any_o more_o than_o to_o abolish_v any_o of_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o decalogue_n and_o how_o be_v it_o they_o say_v that_o something_o in_o this_o law_n be_v abolish_v as_o the_o time_n of_o the_o seven_o day_n yet_o as_o for_o the_o law_n it_o

command_v in_o the_o four_o come_v and_o you_o take_v away_o the_o four_o come_v also_o there_o be_v many_o law_n in_o the_o old_a testament_n which_o be_v now_o abolish_v let_v my_o adversary_n

the_o apostle_n abolish_n those_o yearly_a sabbath_n in_o v._o 16._o do_v also_o abolish_v the_o law_n of_o those_o yearly_a sabbath_n in_o v._o 14._o &_o that_o under_o the_o name_n of_o

14._o &_o thus_o you_o see_v it_o clear_o prove_v that_o take_v away_o god_n sabbath_n &_o you_o take_v away_o the_o law_n of_o god_n sabbath_n which_o be_v the_o four_o come_v here_o by_o the_o way_n note_n that_o since_o antisabbatharians_a will_v have_v nothing_o in_o the_o four_o come_v moral_a but_o the_o duty_n of_o rest_n &_o holy_a exercise_n therefore_o let_v they_o know_v they_o shall_v

that_o so_o way_n may_v be_v make_v for_o holy_a exercise_n then_o so_o it_o be_v enjoin_v in_o the_o second_o commandment_n also_o for_o when_o the_o second_o commandment_n injoin_v god_n worship_n

the_o four_o con_v in_o this_o point_n be_v but_o a_o tautology_n and_o needless_a repetition_n of_o what_o be_v else_o where_o enjoin_v in_o other_o of_o the_o 10_o commandment_n the_o three_o &_o

nor_o can_v they_o show_v we_o any_o thing_n in_o it_o as_o now_o which_o be_v not_o else_o where_o command_v in_o the_o decalogue_n thus_o you_o see_v if_o you_o hold_v the_o old_a sabbath_n day_n to_o be_v abolish_v
then_o be_v this_o four_o commandment_n a_o tautology_n and_o needless_a repetition_n of_o thing_n before_o command_v or_o if_o you_o will_v suppose_v that_o that_o particular_a time_n in_o the_o

doctrine_n which_o affirm_v the_o old_a sabbath_n day_n to_o be_v a_o jewish_a ceremony_n be_v false_a &_o erroniouse_a the_o contrary_a whereto_o be_v the_o very_a truth_n argum_fw-la xx._n my_o 20_o

to_o wit_n the_o 5_o november_n &_o it_o be_v absurd_a to_o think_v that_o the_o rest_n from_o work_n shall_v tend_v to_o the_o public_a praise_n of_o god_n but_o the_o day_n shall_v tend_v to_o

of_o never_o 2000_o year_n after_o and_o not_o for_o the_o patriarch_n also_o who_o live_v before_o the_o flood_n or_o can_v we_o think_v that_o the_o father_n before_o the_o flood_n have_v

to_o prove_v that_o the_o sabbath_n be_v from_o the_o creation_n be_v because_o the_o four_o come_v must_v be_v suppose_v to_o be_v as_o ancient_a as_o be_v the_o other_o nine_o commandment_n of_o

be_v absurd_o suppose_v that_o the_o decalogue_n have_v not_o always_o 10_o commandment_n in_o it_o as_o it_o have_v deut._n 10.4_o if_o then_o the_o four_o come_v be_v as_o ancient_a as_o be_v the_o

object_v that_o there_o be_v no_o mention_n of_o the_o sabbath_n day_n until_o the_o law_n be_v give_v upon_o mount_n sinai_n exod._n 20._o or_o at_o soon_o in_o the_o wilderness_n of_o sin_n exo_n 16.1.23_o well_o be_v it_o so_o but_o do_v it_o follow_v that_o because_o it_o be_v not_o soon_o mention_v it_o be_v not_o therefore_o soon_o in_o use_n the_o law_n against_o murder_n it_o be_v not_o

with_o the_o other_o commandment_n of_o the_o decalogue_n iii_o my_o three_o reason_n that_o the_o sabbath_n be_v from_o the_o creation_n be_v because_o we_o find_v not_o the_o spiritual_a work_n of_o the_o sabbath_n day_n particular_o express_v in_o the_o four_o come_v give_v upon_o mount_n sinai_n exod._n 20._o nor_o yet_o in_o the_o mention_n of_o the_o same_o law_n before_o in_o the_o

after_o what_o manner_n and_o where_o withal_o they_o shall_v sanctify_v this_o day_n the_o same_o be_v also_o confirm_v by_o the_o first_o word_n of_o the_o four_o come_v remember_v remember_v the_o

this_o point_n the_o lord_n need_v not_o say_v any_o more_o unto_o they_o but_o remember_v it_o etc._n etc._n i_o have_v often_o marvel_v in_o myself_o why_o it_o shall_v please_v god_n so_o

of_o the_o sabbath_n which_o be_v the_o more_o excellent_a doubtless_o the_o reason_n be_v because_o the_o sanctification_n of_o the_o sabbath_n do_v not_o then_o begin_v when_o the_o law_n be_v
