the_o subsequent_a antiquity_n will_v more_o abundant_o manifest_a that_o this_o meeting_n of_o the_o disciple_n at_o troas_n and_o paul_n preach_v to_o they_o begin_v at_o evening_n the_o sole_a

if_o any_o for_o my_o own_o part_n i_o conceive_v clear_o that_o it_o be_v upon_o saturday_n night_n as_o we_o false_o call_v it_o not_o the_o ensue_a sunday_n night_n for_o admit_v the_o lordsday_n

the_o christian_n at_o troas_n observe_v this_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n as_o their_o sabbath_n no_o doubt_n but_o this_o their_o meeting_n to_o solemnize_v it_o and_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n on_o it_o be_v rather_o that_o evening_n which_o begin_v than_o that_o which_o end_v the_o lordsday_n in_o their_o account_n else_o they_o shall_v have_v begin_v its_o solemnization_n only_o when_o it_o end_v whiâh_n be_v improbable_a but_o our_o sunday_n evening_n on_o which_o some_o affirm_v this_o meeting_n end_v not_o commence_v the_o lordsday_n in_o their_o account_n they_o ever_o begin_v their_o day_n the_o evening_n before_o as_o the_o premise_n manifest_a therefore_o this_o assembly_n be_v on_o our_o saturday_n evening_n there_o be_v no_o mention_n of_o any_o meeting_n the_o day_n or_o evening_n before_o 2._o because_o the_o christian_n in_o the_o next_o succeed_a age_n as_o i_o shall_v prove_v by_o the_o follow_a testimony_n do_v ever_o begin_v their_o lordsday_n assembly_n and_o solemnity_n on_o saturday_n evening_n solemnize_n it_o from_o evening_n to_o evening_n because_o the_o first_o observer_n of_o it_o do_v so_o therefore_o it_o be_v more_o than_o probable_a that_o these_o christian_n at_o troas_n do_v so_o too_o 3._o because_o saint_n luke_n record_v that_o it_o be_v upon_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n when_o this_o meeting_n be_v and_o this_o sermon_n of_o paul_n make_v therefore_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v on_o the_o saturday_n not_o on_o our_o sunday_n evening_n since_o the_o sunday_n evening_n in_o s._n luke_n and_o scripture_n account_n be_v no_o part_n of_o the_o first_o but_o of_o the_o second_o day_n the_o day_n ever_o beginning_n and_o end_n at_o evening_n in_o their_o computation_n as_o the_o premise_n evidence_n 4._o all_o my_o opposite_n confess_v that_o the_o disciple_n meet_v at_o this_o time_n upon_o the_o first_o day_n of_o purpose_n to_o sanctify_v it_o for_o a-sabbath_n and_o can_v they_o then_o think_v that_o they_o will_v defer_v their_o meeting_n till_o our_o sunday_n evening_n when_o all_o the_o day_n in_o their_o account_n and_o the_o best_a the_o chief_a part_n of_o it_o in_o their_o compute_v who_o begin_v it_o at_o midnight_n or_o morning_n be_v expire_v certain_o this_o have_v be_v to_o make_v the_o lordsday_n no_o festival_n day_n at_o all_o or_o at_o most_o not_o so_o much_o as_o a_o half-holy_a day_n which_o we_o can_v presume_v these_o disciple_n and_o s._n paul_n will_v dodid_v they_o observe_v it_o as_o their_o sabbath_n from_o all_o which_o reason_n i_o may_v more_o than_o probable_o conclude_v that_o it_o be_v the_o saturday_n evening_n when_o the_o lordsday_n begin_v not_o the_o sunday_n night_n when_o it_o end_v when_o this_o divine_a assembly_n be_v keep_v the_o rather_o because_o they_o receive_v not_o the_o sacrament_n nor_o break_v this_o bread_n till_o after_o midnight_n as_o the_o text_n affirm_v and_o so_o after_o the_o lordsday_n end_v even_o in_o the_o account_n of_o such_o who_o affirm_v it_o end_n at_o midnight_n and_o because_o this_o beginning_n of_o their_o assembly_n when_o the_o day_n begin_v make_v most_o for_o the_o apostolical_a divine_a institution_n and_o sanctification_n of_o the_o lord_n day_n for_o the_o which_o this_o text_n will_v little_o avail_v if_o this_o assembly_n on_o it_o be_v on_o our_o sunday_n night_n when_o the_o day_n be_v either_o whole_o or_o for_o the_o most_o part_n expire_v and_o so_o this_o meeting_n no_o warrant_n for_o its_o total_a sanctification_n but_o against_o this_o it_o will_v be_v object_v first_o that_o saint_n paul_n depart_v from_o troâ_n the_o very_a next_o morning_n at_o daybreak_n objection_n which_o he_o will_v not_o have_v do_v have_v it_o be_v part_n of_o the_o lordsday_n for_o he_o will_v not_o have_v take_v this_o journey_n then_o lâst_a he_o shall_v have_v profane_v it_o beside_o the_o text_n say_v that_o he_o be_v ready_a to_o depart_v on_o the_o

monday_n the_o next_o day_n after_o it_o to_o this_o i_o answer_v first_o that_o it_o be_v clear_a by_o act_n 20._o 6._o that_o saint_n paul_n âame_v to_o troas_n upon_o the_o lordsday_n for_o he_o

and_o so_o may_v sanctify_v the_o rest_n of_o the_o day_n a_o ship_n board_n as_o our_o mariner_n and_o passenger_n who_o sail_v on_o the_o lordsday_n as_o well_o as_o other_o day_n use_v to_o do_v because_o the_o wind_n and_o âide_n then_o serve_v and_o the_o ship_n in_o which_o he_o be_v to_o sail_v be_v to_o depart_v that_o morning_n there_o be_v a_o necessity_n for_o he_o then_o to_o go_v
