pen_n of_o any_o learned_a man_n and_o from_o this_o to_o conclude_v that_o the_o servant_n do_v not_o sin_n because_o in_o that_o sabbaticall_a reformation_n nehemiah_n do_v contest_v with_o the_o master_n and_o not_o with_o they_o by_o name_n but_o what_o if_o we_o prove_v out_o of_o this_o very_a chapter_n that_o nehemiah_n do_v contest_v with_o all_o servants_z and_o all_o look_v but_o into_o the_o 15._o verse_n and_o there_o we_o read_v that_o nehemiah_n see_v some_o tread_v winepresses_a on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n and_o these_o be_v confess_v to_o be_v servant_n and_o bring_v in_o sheaf_n and_o lade_n ass_n as_o also_o wine_n grape_n and_o fig_n and_o all_o manner_n of_o burden_n which_o they_o bring_v into_o jerusalem_n on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n all_o these_o or_o the_o most_o of_o these_o i_o be_o sure_a be_v servant_n for_o who_o use_v to_o bear_v burden_n but_o the_o servant_n and_o be_v not_o these_o in_o fault_n else_o why_o do_v nehemiah_n contest_v with_o they_o he_o be_v to_o deal_v wise_o and_o just_o the_o text_n say_v that_o he_o testify_v against_o they_o and_o therefore_o not_o only_o the_o work_n be_v do_v by_o they_o but_o a_o peccati_fw-la sin_n be_v commit_v by_o they_o as_o good_a a_o argument_n as_o the_o former_a may_v have_v arise_v to_o infer_v that_o only_a servant_n be_v in_o the_o sin_n because_o he_o testify_v against_n the_o servant_n and_o not_o the_o master_n by_o name_n but_o the_o thing_n we_o look_v be_v not_o to_o be_v deny_v and_o that_o be_v because_o here_o ver_fw-la 15._o nehemiah_n testify_v against_o the_o servant_n that_o do_v bear_v burden_n that_o therefore_o they_o do_v sin_n for_o we_o have_v it_o confess_v that_o they_o will_v not_o have_v tread_v the_o winepresses_a nor_o carry_v the_o burden_n except_o their_o master_n have_v command_v they_o and_o therefore_o albeit_o their_o master_n do_v charge_v they_o to_o do_v it_o just_a and_o wise_a nehemiah_n do_v testify_v against_o those_o servant_n for_o those_o work_n on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n which_o work_v they_o do_v in_o obedience_n to_o their_o master_n and_o out_o of_o this_o he_o that_o have_v half_o a_o eye_n may_v see_v that_o the_o servant_n do_v sin_n he_o do_v look_v beside_o the_o book_n then_o who_o do_v and_o dare_v write_v that_o nehemiah_n do_v not_o reprove_v the_o servant_n by_o who_o employment_n and_o labour_n these_o thing_n be_v do_v for_o the_o text_n be_v express_v that_o nehemiah_n do_v testify_v first_o against_o they_o the_o servant_n that_o do_v tread_v the_o press_n and_o bear_v the_o burden_n ver_fw-la 15._o and_o then_o the_o noble_n ver_fw-la 17._o once_o more_o from_o the_o very_a text_n in_o hand_n i_o prove_v that_o servant_n as_o servant_n be_v in_o the_o same_o sin_n with_o their_o master_n though_o not_o in_o the_o same_o point_n and_o degree_n of_o sin_v i_o say_v in_o the_o sin_n as_o sin_n to_o shut_v out_o all_o cavil_n for_o it_o
