A77209 An answer to M. Cawdry's two books of the Sabbath, lately come forth Wherein the author doth two things: 1. He vindicates himselfe from Mr Cawdrie's unfriendly abuse of him, in fathering upon him three texts of scripture, and three arguments deduced from them, to prove the perpetuity of the antient Sabbath, ... Wherein the author hath 1. Answered and confuted all that Mr. Cawdry hath wrote to corrupt the sense and meaning of the Commandement. 2. He hath restored the antient, genuine, and proper sense of the Commandement: and confirmed it by sundry undeniable arguments. By Theophilus Brabourne. Brabourne, Theophilus, b. 1590. 1654 (1654) Wing B4088; ESTC R229562 39,309 117

so_o long_o
time_n for_o ecclesiastical_a h●storians_n ancient_o use_v the_o name_n sabbath_n day_n for_o saturday_n the_o latin_n do_v so_o to_o this_o day_n and_o in_o england_n as_o in_o the_o case_n of_o a_o

namely_o saturday_n therefore_o the_o four_o commandment_n must_v be_v expound_v of_o this_o one_o day_n saturday_n the_o seven_o and_o last_o day_n of_o the_o week_n and_o not_o of_o a_o sabbath_n day_n indefinite_o as_o uncertain_a which_o day_n it_o be_v thus_o you_o have_v see_v this_o argument_n prove_v but_o it_o will_v be_v say_v be_v not_o our_o lord_n day_n common_o call_v sabbath_n

they_o please_v every_o fast_a day_n every_o thanksgiving_n day_n &_o every_o christmas_n day_n but_o sure_o i_o be_o this_o be_v but_o a_o novelty_n of_o yesterday_n stand_v and_o as_o the_o name_n

and_o of_o the_o same_o authority_n with_o good_a friday_n the_o passion_n day_n christmas_n day_n and_o o_o her_o holy_a day_n of_o the_o church_n and_o therefore_o these_o man_n can_v not_o think_v in_o their_o time_n the_o lord_n day_n be_v a_o sabbath_n or_o call_v the_o lord_n day_n sabbath_n day_n as_o we_o do_v in_o reference_n to_o the_o four_o commandment_n 3._o in_o the_o five_o year_n of_o edward_n the_o six_o a_o act_n be_v make_v for_o the_o keep_n of_o holy_a day_n as_o sunday_n st_n matthews_n day_n st_n mark_v day_n and_o the_o other_o holy_a day_n in_o which_o act_n both_o

and_o lord_n day_n sabbath_n day_n and_o to_o keep_v it_o as_o a_o sabbath_n be_v but_o a_o novelty_n and_o spring_v up_o but_o since_o edward_n the_o six_o his_o day_n 4._o i_o be_o sixty_o four_o

that_o thus_o keep_v it_o can_v not_o think_v it_o be_v a_o sabbath_n day_n or_o call_v it_o a_o sabbath_n day_n so_o far_o of_o my_o five_o argument_n argument_n the_o six_o if_o the_o four_o

than_o to_o expound_v it_o as_o moses_n and_o the_o prophet_n do_v ancient_o if_o therefore_o the_o four_o commandment_n be_v ancient_o expound_v for_o saturday_n it_o must_v be_v so_o expound_v still_o and_o in_o our_o time_n take_v a_o ceremonial_a law_n as_o that_o of_o circumcision_n or_o the_o passeover_n and_o if_o you_o will_v expound_v and_o open_v the_o sense_n of_o it_o now_o you_o

of_o the_o month_n not_o of_o the_o fourteen_o day_n of_o the_o year_n and_o so_o you_o must_v deal_v with_o every_o of_o the_o ten_o moral_a commandment_n or_o else_o you_o deal_v false_o with_o

this_o that_o have_v no_o precept_n for_o the_o lord_n day_n in_o the_o new_a testament_n and_o none_o but_o poor_a probable_a reason_n ab_fw-la exemplo_fw-la therefore_o he_o will_v fain_o

to_o borrow_v a_o pair_n of_o leg_n from_o the_o four_o commandment_n and_o then_o it_o shall_v be_v able_a to_o stand_v in_o the_o opinion_n of_o the_o delude_a multitude_n as_o for_o his_o

this_o be_v sufficient_a to_o take_v off_o the_o aspersion_n of_o novelty_n from_o our_o interpretation_n and_o exposition_n of_o the_o four_o commandment_n and_o to_o show_v it_o to_o be_v
