very_o solemn_a of_o itself_o yea_o great_a than_o all_o other_o feast_n for_o the_o jew_n may_v not_o so_o much_o as_o dress_v their_o meat_n on_o the_o sabbath_n which_o be_v lawful_a for_o they_o to_o do_v in_o other_o feast_n though_o never_o so_o great_a unless_o it_o fall_v on_o the_o sabbath_n thus_o the_o sabbath_n only_o have_v its_o preparation_n that_o be_v a_o day_n to_o make_v

from_o some_o pharisaical_a tradition_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o rich_a booty_n they_o have_v from_o the_o multitude_n of_o people_n that_o then_o flock_v thither_o from_o all_o part_n from_o whence_o also_o it_o be_v call_v the_o sabbath_n of_o the_o passover_n not_o that_o the_o feast_n of_o the_o passover_n be_v on_o that_o day_n but_o because_o it_o fall_v out_o in_o the_o passover-week_n as_o we_o use_v to_o say_v now_o the_o three_o four_o five_o day_n of_o easter_n brief_o the_o jew_n call_v every_o sixth_o day_n the_o preparation_n though_o some_o feast_n fall_v thereon_o so_o the_o paschal_n feast_n or_o solemnity_n happen_v on_o this_o sixth_o day_n which_o very_a day_n be_v also_o the_o preparation_n of_o the_o follow_a sabbath_n it_o be_v certain_a therefore_o that_o christ_n be_v crucify_v on_o the_o very_a feast_n day_n nor_o do_v it_o prove_v the_o contrary_a in_o that_o they_o say_v 26.5_o mat._n 26.5_o not_o on_o the_o feast_n day_n etc._n etc._n for_o they_o regard_v not_o the_o feast_n but_o be_v rather_o afraid_a leave_v the_o multitude_n shall_v hinder_v their_o wicked_a design_n therefore_o they_o do_v not_o say_v not_o on_o the_o feast_n day_n because_o it_o be_v not_o lawful_a but_o lest_o there_o be_v a_o uproar_n among_o the_o people_n nay_o they_o have_v not_o forbear_v their_o purpose_n the_o sabbath_n follow_v though_o it_o be_v a_o great_a one_o if_o there_o have_v not_o be_v some_o other_o occasion_n such_o be_v their_o rage_n they_o may_v as_o doubtless_o they_o do_v pretend_v that_o god_n can_v not_o be_v better_o serve_v or_o have_v a_o
