as_o it_o be_v evident_a because_o he_o go_v out_o into_o the_o field_n on_o the_o three_o day_n in_o the_o morning_n which_o say_v the_o text_n be_v at_o the_o time_n appoint_v with_o david_n v._o

do_v end_n at_o midday_n and_o david_n evening_n do_v begin_v at_o midday_n at_o the_o first_o decline_v of_o the_o sun_n now_o jonathan_n can_v not_o have_v come_v quick_o diligent_o exact_o and_o punctual_o to_o the_o place_n appoint_v at_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o evening_n unless_o he_o go_v out_o on_o the_o three_o day_n morning_n that_o be_v to_o say_v a_o little_a before_o the_o evening_n

to_o the_o punctual_a time_n of_o the_o appoint_a evening_n and_o thus_o jonathans_n morning_n and_o david_n evening_n do_v meet_v together_o at_o midday_n and_o no_o other_o resolution_n can_v be_v give_v as_o i_o conceive_v to_o make_v jonathans_n morning_n and_o david_n evening_n to_o agree_v together_o at_o one_o and_o the_o same_o appoint_a time_n but_o this_o object_n 5._o why_o may_v not_o the_o appoint_a evening_n be_v understand_v of_o the_o night-evening_n and_o the_o appoint_a place_n be_v a_o great_a way_n off_o and_o in_o that_o respect_n jonathan_n may_v begin_v his_o journey_n in_o the_o morning_n that_o so_o be_v may_v come_v to_o the_o place_n appoint_v at_o the_o time_n of_o the_o sunset_n evening_n answ_n i_o perceive_v that_o man_n be_v loath_a to_o have_v any_o other_o evening_n but_o the_o night-evening_n and_o therefore_o they_o be_v willing_a to_o raise_v what_o objection_n they_o can_v against_o the_o midday_n evening_n but_o i_o will_v give_v you_o divers_a reason_n why_o the_o appoint_a evening_n can_v be_v mean_v of_o the_o sunset_n evening_n first_o if_o the_o place_n of_o meeting_n have_v be_v so_o far_o off_o as_o to_o cause_n jonathan_n to_o spend_v so_o much_o time_n in_o go_v thither_o as_o from_o morning_n till_o sunset_n than_o jonathan_n can_v not_o have_v have_v time_n enough_o leave_v to_o return_v back_o again_o into_o the_o city_n in_o the_o same_o day_n but_o the_o text_n in_o ver_fw-la 23._o do_v tell_v we_o that_o jonathan_n do_v return_v the_o same_o day_n into_o the_o city_n therefore_o the_o appoint_a evening_n can_v be_v understand_v of_o the_o sunset_a evening_n second_o jonathan_n return_v alone_o without_o any_o company_n with_o he_o for_o he_o have_v send_v his_o boy_n back_o into_o the_o city_n before_o which_o in_o reason_n he_o will_v not_o have_v do_v if_o the_o place_n of_o meeting_n have_v be_v so_o far_o off_o as_o you_o make_v it_o three_o jonathan_n know_v that_o saul_n be_v jealous_a of_o his_o familiarity_n with_o david_n and_o he_o know_v also_o that_o saul_n be_v much_o enrage_v against_o david_n at_o this_o time_n therefore_o in_o wisdom_n jonathan_n will_v not_o be_v so_o long_o absent_a from_o saul_n as_o from_o morning_n till_o sunset_n nay_o it_o will_v have_v be_v midnight_n ere_o he_o can_v have_v return_v if_o the_o place_n appoint_v to_o meet_v at_o have_v be_v so_o far_o off_o as_o you_o will_v make_v it_o and_o then_o saul_n may_v well_o have_v suspect_v that_o jonathan_n may_v have_v have_v some_o other_o errand_n into_o the_o field_n beside_o shoot_v at_o a_o mark_n by_o his_o long_a and_o late_a absence_n but_o jonathan_n pretend_v no_o other_o errand_n but_o to_o shoot_v at_o a_o mark_n and_o therefore_o he_o take_v his_o boy_n with_o he_o to_o witness_v so_o much_o if_o need_n shall_v be_v 1._o hence_o it_o follow_v that_o the_o place_n of_o meeting_n be_v but_o a_o little_a way_n without_o the_o city_n for_o what_o need_n have_v a_o man_n go_v far_o to_o shoot_v at_o a_o mark_n and_o so_o it_o ask_v but_o a_o little_a time_n to_o go_v to_o it_o and_o to_o return_v from_o it_o 2_o hence_o it_o follow_v that_o the_o appoint_a evening_n must_v be_v understand_v of_o the_o midday_n evening_n and_o not_o of_o the_o sunset_n evening_n and_o thus_o jonathans_n morning_n and_o david_n evening_n do_v fit_o agree_v to_o the_o same_o appoint_a hour_n at_o midday_n in_o like_a sort_n one_o evangelist_n say_v that_o christ_n be_v crucify_v at_o the_o three_o hour_n mark_n 15._o 25._o but_o john_n say_v he_o be_v crucify_v

the_o three_o small_a hour_n which_o we_o call_v nine_o a_o clock_n and_o their_o second_o great_a hour_n they_o call_v their_o sixth_o because_o it_o end_v with_o the_o sixth_o small_a hour_n which_o

or_o seven_o day_n from_o the_o time_n of_o the_o evening_n sacrifice_n and_o forward_o 2_o hence_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o the_o hebrew_n doctor_n do_v not_o esteem_v any_o part_n of_o the_o evening_n before_o their_o sabbath_n to_o be_v as_o holy_a as_o the_o day_n follow_v because_o they_o do_v neither_o scourge_n nor_o excommunicate_v any_o man_n for_o work_v in_o the_o evening_n before_o their_o sabbath_n as_o they_o do_v for_o work_v in_o the_o passeover_n evening_n and_o the_o reason_n be_v plain_a because_o they_o esteem_v both_o the_o part_n of_o the_o passeover-evening_n to_o be_v the_o very_a day_n of_o the_o passeover_n itself_o but_o it_o seem_v they_o do_v not_o esteem_v the_o evening_n before_o the_o sabbath_n to_o be_v any_o true_a part_n of_o the_o sabbath_n itself_o for_o doubtless_o if_o they_o have_v esteem_v it_o as_o a_o true_a part_n of_o the_o sabbath_n itself_o they_o will_v not_o only_o have_v scourge_v and_o excommunicate_v such_o person_n that_o do_v presume_v to_o work_v in_o the_o evening_n before_o the_o sabbath_n but_o also_o they_o will_v have_v stone_v they_o to_o death_n if_o they_o have_v presumptuous_o break_v the_o rest_n of_o the_o holy_a sabbath_n numb_a 15._o 35._o and_o as_o maymony_n make_v the_o evening_n of_o the_o passeover_n not_o like_o the_o evening_n that_o go_v before_o their_o festival_n sabbath_n nor_o like_o the_o evening_n that_o go_v before_o their_o weekly_a sabbath_n so_o i_o may_v say_v of_o the_o evening_n that_o go_v before_o the_o day_n of_o atonement_n that_o it_o be_v more_o strict_a for_o holy_a rest_n than_o the_o evening_n that_o go_v before_o any_o of_o the_o other_o sabbath_n from_o all_o the_o premise_n i_o conclude_v that_o no_o day_n in_o all_o the_o year_n be_v command_v to_o be_v of_o such_o a_o length_n for_o strict_a rest_n as_o this_o day_n be_v for_o the_o strict_a rest_n of_o this_o day_n and_o the_o strict_a fast_o of_o this_o day_n begin_v in_o the_o sacrifice_n evening_n or_o else_o at_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o latter_a evening_n of_o the_o nine_o day_n and_o it_o continue_v not_o only_o till_o a_o little_a after_o the_o sunset_n evening_n of_o the_o ten_o day_n as_o maymony_n say_v but_o also_o it_o continue_v long_o for_o some_o of_o the_o holy_a duty_n of_o the_o ten_o day_n can_v not_o be_v finish_v till_o midnight_n after_o for_o 1_o the_o priest_n must_v eat_v their_o part_n of_o the_o public_a sin-offering_a num._n 29._o 11._o which_o must_v be_v eat_v in_o the_o same_o day_n in_o which_o it_o be_v offer_v leu._n 6._o 26._o as_o other_o sacrifice_n be_v leu._n 7._o 15_o 18._o and_o yet_o the_o priest_n can_v not_o eat_v the_o holy_a flesh_n of_o this_o public_a sin-offering_a till_o after_o sunset_n for_o the_o fast_o of_o this_o day_n be_v not_o full_o end_v till_o after_o sunset_n and_o therefore_o also_o they_o may_v not_o begin_v to_o cook_n that_o holy_a flesh_n until_o the_o fast_a be_v full_o end_v hence_o it_o follow_v that_o the_o same_o day_n do_v still_o continue_v till_o after_o sunset_n yea_o until_o it_o be_v midnight_n 2_o the_o priest_n have_v another_o work_n to_o do_v within_o the_o limit_n of_o this_o ten_o day_n namely_o they_o must_v burn_v all_o the_o fat_v and_o piece_n of_o all_o the_o public_a evening-sacrifice_n of_o this_o day_n which_o be_v many_o and_o some_o of_o their_o evening-sacrifice_n be_v also_o offer_v near_o unto_o sunset_n and_o therefore_o this_o work_n and_o duty_n of_o burn_a will_v require_v not_o only_o the_o more_o diligence_n but_o also_o the_o more_o

thereof_o more_o at_o large_a in_o leu._n 6._o 9_o 3_o it_o appear_v that_o some_o of_o the_o work_n which_o appertain_v to_o the_o morning-sacrifice_n of_o this_o ten_o day_n must_v begin_v at_o

the_o burn_a of_o all_o the_o evening-sacrifice_n of_o this_o day_n till_o midnight_n as_o i_o have_v show_v above_o from_o leu._n 6._o 9_o and_o yet_o over_o and_o above_o this_o full_a day_n from_o

to_o be_v a_o extraordinary_a long_a fasting-sabbath_n hence_o i_o conclude_v that_o the_o beginning_n of_o this_o day_n can_v be_v allege_v as_o a_o exemplary_a pattern_n neither_o for_o the_o

this_o they_o allege_v the_o example_n of_o nehemiah_n he_o be_v say_v to_o shut_v up_o the_o gate_n of_o jerusalem_n when_o it_o begin_v to_o be_v dark_a before_o the_o sabbath_n neh._n 13._o 19_o they_o expound_v the_o word_n before_o and_o the_o word_n dark_a in_o favour_n of_o their_o opinion_n thus_o 1_o the_o word_n before_o the_o sabbath_n they_o say_v do_v mean_a just_a before_o the_o
