answer_v that_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n or_o lord_n day_n have_v take_v foot_n among_o the_o convert_n gentile_n to_o who_o the_o apostle_n write_v he_o may_v with_o less_o scruple_n use_v the_o word_n sabbath_n absolute_o without_o exception_n consider_v that_o all_o sabbath_n eo_fw-la nomine_fw-la be_v outlaw_v though_o now_o as_o the_o case_n stand_v we_o in_o these_o time_n be_v force_v to_o reassume_a the_o name_n sabbath_n not_o thereby_o to_o shoulder_v out_o the_o more_o worthy_a name_n of_o lord_n day_n but_o to_o vindicate_v the_o authority_n of_o the_o four_o commandment_n and_o to_o testify_v our_o judgement_n touch_v the_o new_a sabbath_n like_v as_o the_o primitive_a time_n be_v report_v to_o take_v up_o the_o wear_n of_o the_o cross_n to_o testify_v their_o profession_n and_o confession_n of_o a_o crucify_a christ_n against_o their_o opposer_n 2._o to_o your_o second_o reason_n i_o answer_v that_o our_o warrant_n to_o work_v on_o the_o jew_n seven_o day_n be_v the_o four_o commandment_n which_o proportion_v we_o out_o six_o day_n for_o our_o worldly_a affair_n and_o the_o seven_o for_o a_o holy_a rest_n which_o be_v the_o total_a and_o moral_a sense_n and_o sum_n of_o that_o commandment_n and_o which_o we_o still_o observe_v the_o order_n be_v occasional_a and_o temporary_a but_o the_o number_n moral_a and_o perpetual_a as_o i_o have_v prove_v before_o and_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n do_v imply_v a_o nullity_n of_o the_o one_o by_o the_o bring_n in_o of_o the_o other_o according_a to_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o commandment_n and_o the_o prophecy_n of_o isaiah_n 65._o 16._o so_o that_o if_o you_o think_v it_o meet_v to_o retain_v the_o lord_n day_n in_o our_o church_n as_o you_o do_v in_o your_o premonition_n then_o must_v you_o grant_v the_o order_n to_o be_v change_v for_o it_o be_v never_o the_o apostle_n meaning_n nor_o in_o their_o power_n when_o god_n by_o a_o perpetual_a law_n from_o the_o beginning_n have_v give_v we_o six_o day_n for_o labour_n and_o destine_v the_o seven_o to_o a_o holy_a rest_n to_o have_v turn_v it_o into_o five_o day_n labour_n and_o two_o day_n rest._n for_o among_o the_o jew_n when_o holiday_n be_v so_o frequent_a there_o be_v never_o any_o weekly_a holy_a day_n ordain_v to_o go_v cheek_n by_o jowl_n with_o the_o sabbath_n but_o either_o monthly_a or_o yearly_o so_o that_o as_o moses_n his_o serpent_n eat_v up_o the_o sorcerer_n so_o have_v our_o seven_o day_n eat_v up_o they_o excel_v they_o as_o the_o apostle_n say_v in_o another_o case_n 2_o cor_n 3._o 10._o even_o that_o which_o be_v make_v glorious_a have_v no_o glory_n in_o this_o respect_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o glory_n which_o excel_v generatio_fw-la unius_fw-la est_fw-la corruptio_fw-la alterius_fw-la our_o new_a heaven_n and_o new_a earth_n have_v give_v we_o a_o new_a sabbath_n and_o new_a rest._n for_o old_a thing_n be_v pass_v away_o and_o all_o thing_n be_v become_v new_a 3._o to_o your_o three_o reason_n i_o answer_v that_o paul_n in_o like_a case_n speak_v in_o divers_a place_n of_o minister_n maintenance_n and_o yet_o say_v never_o a_o word_n to_o clear_v the_o controversy_n of_o tithe_n whether_o they_o be_v or_o be_v not_o jure_fw-la divino_fw-la but_o he_o preach_v the_o substance_n to_o wit_n a_o meet_a maintenance_n to_o be_v necessary_a so_o in_o paul_n discourse_n of_o time_n and_o day_n as_o also_o of_o other_o thing_n although_o he_o satisfy_v not_o our_o fancy_n who_o can_v see_v afar_o of_o yet_o do_v he_o answer_v the_o will_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n who_o for_o reason_n whereof_o we_o be_v uncapable_a spare_v to_o do_v what_o we_o expect_v and_o indeed_o the_o reason_n of_o paul_n not_o preach_v the_o sabbath_n alteration_n may_v be_v because_o it_o be_v neither_o safe_a nor_o convenient_a for_o it_o must_v needs_o have_v give_v great_a offence_n to_o the_o jew_n see_v it_o have_v a_o place_n among_o the_o moral_a commandment_n who_o be_v so_o precise_a in_o the_o punctisioe_n of_o time_n as_o that_o they_o will_v have_v be_v of_o your_o opinion_n that_o either_o their_o seven_o day_n or_o none_o be_v moral_a and_o so_o will_v have_v take_v advantage_n to_o vilify_v his_o doctrine_n as_o if_o he_o have_v go_v about_o to_o overthrow_v as_o well_o the_o moral_a as_o ceremonial_a law_n the_o sun_n shine_v of_o the_o gospel_n be_v too_o bright_a for_o their_o weak_a eye_n to_o behold_v all_o at_o once_o and_o therefore_o the_o aposile_n condescend_v to_o their_o infirmity_n choose_v rather_o to_o insinuate_v the_o lord_n day_n tacit_o by_o his_o practice_n then_o by_o his_o doctrine_n for_o so_o i●_n behove_v he_o in_o those_o time_n wherein_o he_o become_v all_o to_o all_o that_o he_o may_v win_v some_o and_o therefore_o do_v he_o take_v occ●●●on_n on_o the_o i●●ish_a sabbath_n to_o preach_v the_o gospel_n in_o their_o synagogue_n when_o yet_o we_o see_v how_o that_o private_o he_o sanctify_v the_o lord_n day_n with_o christians_n therefore_o i_o conclude_v that_o this_o scripture_n be_v nothing_o concern_v the_o weekly_a sabbath_n whereof_o he_o write_v nothing_o at_o all_o direct_o for_o the_o reason_n aforesaid_a but_o of_o the_o jewish_a ceremonial_a sabbath_n which_o he_o must_v needs_o cry_v down_o if_o he_o set_v up_o christ._n the_o shadow_n must_v vanish_v when_o the_o substance_n come_v in_o place_n and_o of_o this_o the_o convert_a jew_n be_v most_o as_o well_v persuade_v without_o offence_n as_o the_o convert_a gentile_n but_o of_o this_o sort_n be_v not_o the_o weekly_a sabbath_n as_o i_o have_v prove_v elsewhere_o and_o as_o further_o be_v evident_a from_o the_o 92._o psal_n which_o be_v dedicate_v to_o the_o sabbath_n day_n but_o none_o of_o the_o

the_o militant_a church_n unto_o the_o world_n end_n as_o may_v appear_v by_o the_o apostle_n exhortation_n it_o seem_v not_o consonant_a to_o reason_n that_o a_o part_n of_o god_n perpetual_a

and_o shall_v have_v more_o occasion_n hereafter_o to_o enlarge_v it_o among_o those_o two_o or_o three_o which_o justify_v the_o morality_n of_o the_o sabbath_n i_o will_v have_v you_o take_v in_o
