assembly_n wherein_o they_o do_v no_o servile_a labour_n v._o 6.7_o and_o this_o be_v a_o sabbath_n day_n to_o wit_v a_o ceremonial_a sabbath_n day_n now_o the_o jew_n kill_v their_o passover_o on_o

and_o it_o have_v not_o respect_n unto_o the_o moral_a sabbath_n now_o the_o reason_n move_v i_o to_o say_v so_o be_v 1._o because_o this_o parascue_n or_o preparation_n be_v not_o any_o where_o

of_o the_o passover_o not_o the_o preparation_n to_o the_o sabbath_n as_o they_o will_v 2._o we_o read_v of_o a_o preparation_n ever_o on_o the_o day_n before_o the_o 15_o day_n of_o the_o month_n the_o sabbath_n on_o the_o first_o day_n of_o unleavened_a bread_n but_o of_o none_o before_o the_o weekly_a sabbath_n see_v luk._n 22.8.9_o and_o you_o know_v there_o must_v be_v a_o preparation_n of_o the_o passover_o before_o it_o be_v eat_v for_o it_o must_v be_v kill_v and_o roast_v first_o exod._n 12.6.8_o and_o a_o place_n where_o it_o must_v be_v eat_v in_o must_v be_v prepare_v too_o

but_o this_o need_v no_o labour_n since_o it_o be_v apparent_a god_n sanctify_v the_o 7_o day_n and_o last_o day_n of_o the_o week_n that_o day_n which_o follow_v his_o 6._o day_n work_n 2._o we_o be_v to_o inquire_v after_o the_o reason_n move_v god_n to_o sanctify_v this_o day_n of_o the_o week_n before_o any_o other_o and_o this_o be_v plain_o lay_v down_o in_o the_o last_o clause_n of_o the_o 4_o comm_n and_o again_o in_o genes_n 2.3_o so_o god_n bless_v the_o 7_o day_n and_o sanctify_v it_o because_o that_o in_o it_o he_o have_v rest_v from_o all_o his_o work_n where_o you_o see_v god_n render_v the_o special_a reason_n move_v he_o to_o bless_v and_o to_o sanctify_v the_o sabbath_n day_n and_o it_o be_v because_o that_o on_o that_o day_n himself_o have_v rest_v use_v 1._o may_v be_v to_o show_v we_o that_o god_n in_o his_o 4_o comm_n enjoin_v not_o a_o day_n at_o random_n but_o a_o particular_a day_n such_o a_o day_n as_o have_v this_o reason_n of_o god_n rest_n belong_v to_o it_o now_o this_o belong_v only_o to_o the_o 7_o day_n of_o the_o week_n not_o to_o the_o 8_o day_n nor_o to_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n our_o lord_n day_n for_o god_n the_o creator_n rest_v not_o upon_o our_o lord_n day_n when_o he_o have_v finish_v the_o work_n of_o creation_n but_o upon_o our_o saturday_n the_o seven_o day_n which_o go_v next_o before_o the_o lord_n day_n use_v 2._o may_v be_v to_o show_v we_o that_o the_o four_o come_v can_v not_o be_v urge_v or_o apply_v to_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n our_o lord_n day_n because_o that_o reason_n of_o god_n rest_n upon_o the_o 7_o day_n which_o move_v he_o to_o sanctify_v it_o neither_o do_v nor_o can_v belong_v to_o the_o lord_n day_n now_o since_o that_o reason_n of_o god_n rest_n which_o be_v a_o part_n of_o the_o 4_o com_n can_v not_o belong_v to_o our_o lord_n day_n no_o more_o can_v the_o whole_a com_n belong_v unto_o it_o use_v 3._o and_o i_o think_v the_o reason_n of_o god_n institution_n shall_v say_v some_o thing_n for_o the_o morality_n and_o perpetuity_n of_o the_o sabbath_n for_o as_o sine_fw-la move_v god_n to_o bring_v death_n into_o the_o world_n at_o the_o first_o upon_o adam_n rom._n 5.12_o so_o the_o same_o continue_v move_v god_n still_o to_o continue_v death_n in_o the_o world_n upon_o adam_n posterity_n so_o god_n rest_v upon_o the_o 7_o day_n move_v he_o at_o first_o to_o sanctify_v it_o the_o same_o reason_n remain_v to_o world_n end_n shall_v move_v god_n to_o continue_v the_o sanctification_n of_o the_o 7_o day_n for_o ever_o the_o ground_n of_o which_o consequence_n be_v take_v from_o that_o axiom_n that_o god_n be_v immutable_a and_o unchangeable_a &_o ever_o the_o same_o so_o as_o if_o thing_n be_v the_o same_o towards_o he_o he_o again_o be_v the_o same_o towards_o they_o hence_o it_o be_v we_o thus_o argue_v do_v god_n so_o to_o abraham_n to_o david_n to_o pharaoh_n etc._n etc._n if_o thou_o be_v to_o god_n as_o they_o be_v so_o god_n will_v be_v to_o thou_o as_o he_o be_v to_o they_o now_o as_o god_n be_v ever_o the_o same_o so_o be_v god_n rest_n on_o the_o 7_o day_n and_o so_o we_o have_v speak_v of_o the_o duty_n of_o the_o day_n and_o of_o the_o time_n next_o we_o shall_v come_v to_o speak_v of_o the_o duty_n in_o the_o day_n and_o in_o the_o time_n the_o duty_n in_o the_o day_n be_v 2._o holiness_n and_o rest_v

in_o the_o sabbath_n all_o their_o labour_n will_v be_v lose_v as_o i_o trust_v in_o god_n it_o will_v appear_v at_o the_o last_o what_o they_o say_v against_o the_o 7_o day_n sabbath_n i_o reduce_v to_o two_o head_n the_o former_a shall_v consist_v of_o text_n of_o scripture_n and_o artificial_a argument_n the_o latter_a of_o testimony_n and_o authority_n of_o man_n for_o their_o text_n of_o

day_n sabbath_n be_v a_o sign_n and_o that_o of_o the_o everlasting_a sabbath_n in_o heaven_n and_o therefore_o the_o ceremonial_a and_o temporary_a hereto_o i_o answer_v 1._o that_o this_o phrase_n of_o speech_n in_o this_o text_n be_v obscure_a and_o dark_a some_o to_o we_o for_o what_o shall_v be_v mean_v by_o these_o word_n from_o month_n to_o month_n whereof_o be_v these_o a_o sign_n now_o

out_o by_o a_o other_o text_n which_o be_v in_o metaphoricale_n phrase_n &_o of_o a_o doubtful_a sense_n 2._o if_o this_o sabbath_n be_v a_o sign_n of_o heaven_n it_o be_v so_o far_o from_o be_v a_o temporary_a ceremony_n as_o rather_o it_o be_v perpetual_a moral_a to_o last_v till_o heaven_n come_v as_o have_v be_v say_v before_o for_o the_o sign_n or_o shadow_n be_v to_o last_v until_o the_o

upon_o their_o deliverance_n out_o of_o egypt_n it_o follow_v if_o that_o deliverance_n out_o of_o egypt_n be_v but_o ceremonial_a as_o a_o thing_n proper_a to_o the_o jew_n then_o so_o be_v the_o

down_o into_o egypt_n genes_n 2.3_o neither_o be_v or_o can_v the_o deliverance_n out_o of_o egypt_n be_v the_o sole_a cause_n nor_o the_o chief_a cause_n of_o the_o sabbath_n institution_n for_o

christian_n therefore_o show_v the_o sabbath_n belong_v not_o to_o we_o neither_o then_o may_v we_o by_o as_o good_a reason_n abolish_v not_o the_o sabbath_n alone_o but_o the_o whole_a moral_a law_n

creation_n or_o at_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o world_n redemption_n it_o be_v groundless_a to_o set_v any_o other_o beginning_n now_o sunday_n be_v the_o common_a repute_a day_n for_o the_o

where_o he_o leave_v out_o a_o high_a place_n for_o the_o sabbath_n day_n as_o the_o king_n &_o prince_n of_o all_o day_n it_o be_v lik_o therefore_o that_o our_o lord_n day_n be_v keep_v as_o we_o

20.11_o the_o reason_n then_o move_v god_n to_o adorn_v and_o beautify_v the_o 7_o day_n so_o with_o holiness_n and_o rest_n be_v because_o god_n have_v once_o rest_v on_o that_o day_n so_o as_o the_o

be_v this_o that_o since_o the_o ceremonial_a sabbath_n whilst_o in_o force_n do_v bind_v as_o strict_o as_o do_v the_o moral_a sabbath_n therefore_o there_o be_v the_o same_o reason_n and_o the_o regard_n of_o the_o ceremonial_a and_o of_o the_o moral_a sabbath_n for_o strictness_n of_o observation_n and_o therefore_o it_o follow_v by_o like_a reason_n as_o far_o as_o man_n may_v judge_v that_o if_o a_o dispensation_n be_v grant_v in_o case_n of_o necessity_n for_o a_o change_n of_o that_o day_n so_o a_o dispensation_n likewise_o in_o like_a case_n be_v grant_v for_o a_o change_n of_o the_o moral_a sabbath_n so_o long_o as_o that_o necessity_n avoidable_o last_v unless_o groundless_o we_o shall_v think_v god_n be_v more_o strict_a towards_o christian_n about_o the_o sabbath_n than_o he_o be_v towards_o jew_n about_o the_o sabbath_n of_o the_o passeover_n one_o objection_n more_o what_o and_o if_o we_o can_v have_v public_a assembly_n in_o the_o congregation_n may_v be_v we_o not_o bind_v to_o keep_v the_o sabbath_n as_o we_o can_v private_o every_o man_n in_o his_o own_o family_n i_o answer_v since_o god_n have_v ordain_v the_o sabbath_n to_o be_v keep_v with_o public_a assembly_n and_o with_o the_o help_n of_o priest_n or_o minister_n as_o have_v be_v show_v therefore_o i_o judge_v it_o better_a to_o alter_v the_o day_n until_o the_o time_n of_o reformation_n that_o so_o we_o may_v enjoy_v the_o public_a assembly_n and_o benefit_n of_o a_o able_a minister_n on_o a_o other_o day_n then_o without_o these_o to_o keep_v the_o very_a self_n same_o day_n that_o this_o opinion_n be_v justifiable_a see_v the_o like_a practice_n of_o the_o good_a king_n hezekiah_n fore_o mention_v 2._o chron._n 30.1.2.3_o who_o because_o the_o priest_n be_v not_o prepare_v to_o keep_v the_o passeover_n in_o the_o first_o month_n nor_o be_v the_o people_n public_o assemble_v together_o in_o the_o same_o month_n for_o these_o two_o cause_n the_o king_n with_o his_o prince_n alter_v the_o day_n of_o the_o passeover_n to_o the_o second_o month_n if_o any_o shall_v object_v or_o doubt_n that_o i_o strain_v thing_n to_o far_o when_o i_o will_v justify_v the_o change_n of_o the_o sabbath_n by_o the_o change_n of_o the_o passeover_n because_o these_o two_o be_v thing_n of_o a_o different_a kind_n etc._n etc._n and_o because_o the_o reason_n move_v we_o to_o change_v the_o sabbath_n be_v not_o the_o same_o that_o god_n mention_v in_o the_o law_n of_o the_o passover_n change_v numb_a 9.10_o for_o satisfaction_n of_o the_o weak_a in_o this_o point_n i_o thus_o answer_v 1._o to_o the_o latter_a touch_v the_o reason_n of_o our_o change_n they_o be_v not_o the_o same_o indeed_o every_o way_n yet_o if_o they_o be_v as_o they_o be_v as_o necessary_a to_o enforce_v a_o change_n as_o thes_n numb_a 9.10_o it_o be_v sufficient_a and_o for_o proof_n hereof_o see_v it_o in_o the_o practice_n of_o king_n hezekiah_n who_o change_v the_o day_n of_o the_o passeover_n 2._o chron._n 30.3_o not_o upon_o these_o very_a particular_a ground_n which_o god_n specify_v in_o numb_a 9.10_o for_o god_n specify_v only_o these_o two_o defilment_n by_o a_o dead_a corpse_n and_o be_v in_o a_o far_a journey_n but_o hezekiah_n by_o like_a reason_n gathete_v that_o they_o may_v alter_v the_o day_n upon_o other_o ground_n also_o if_o as_o weighty_a as_o those_o first_o and_o namely_o upon_o these_o 1._o because_o the_o priest_n be_v not_o sanctify_v 2._o because_o the_o people_n be_v not_o assemble_v so_o thes_n two_o differ_v both_o in_o the_o person_n and_o also_o in_o the_o thing_n as_o may_v be_v see_v by_o compare_v those_o two_o text_n together_o second_o i_o answer_v to_o the_o former_a and_o i_o justify_v my_o argue_v from_o the_o passeover_n to_o the_o sabbath_n from_o the_o practice_n of_o our_o saviour_n who_o argue_v from_o david_n eat_v the_o shewbread_n to_o the_o sabbath_n math._n 1.12.2.3_o which_o be_v thing_n far_o more_o different_a than_o the_o passeover_n day_n &_o the_o sabbath_n day_n for_o both_o these_o be_v of_o day_n and_o time_n but_o those_o be_v of_o bread_n and_o time_n further_n by_o this_o practice_n of_o christ_n i_o find_v it_o lawful_a for_o we_o to_o reason_n from_o a_o ceremonial_a as_o the_o show_n bread_n be_v or_o by_o like_a reason_n from_o a_o ceremonial_a as_o the_o passeover_n be_v to_o a_o moral_a as_o the_o sabbath_n be_v conclude_v that_o the_o same_o exception_n and_o dispensation_n belong_v to_o the_o moral_a sabbath_n which_o god_n grant_v to_o the_o ceremonial_a law_n of_o shewbread_n or_o to_o the_o law_n of_o passeover_n if_o there_o be_v necessity_n in_o the_o one_o as_o be_v in_o the_o other_o for_o a_o conclusion_n let_v i_o stop_n up_o one_o gap_n where_o at_o i_o perceive_v some_o will_v be_v ready_a to_o breek_v out_o say_v since_o that_o we_o have_v not_o now_o the_o very_a day_n which_o god_n sanctify_v but_o a_o other_o day_n in_o its_o room_n we_o be_v not_o tie_v so_o strict_o to_o keep_v this_o day_n in_o the_o duty_n of_o rest_n and_o holiness_n as_o we_o shall_v be_v if_o we_o have_v the_o right_a day_n and_o therefore_o we_o may_v take_v liberty_n etc._n etc._n where_o unto_o i_o answer_v how_o ever_o the_o right_a day_n be_v to_o be_v desire_v principal_o and_o before_o any_o other_o and_o all_o good_a mean_n to_o be_v use_v for_o obtain_v it_o yet_o until_o a_o time_n of_o reformation_n i_o hold_v this_o day_n ought_v as_o strict_o to_o be_v sanctify_v as_o that_o other_o suppose_v a_o debtor_n bind_v in_o a_o bond_n to_o pay_v 10li._o on_o the_o seven_o day_n of_o march_n and_o his_o creditor_n see_v he_o in_o a_o straight_a and_o necessity_n be_v upon_o he_o so_o as_o he_o he_o can_v bring_v the_o money_n just_a upon_o the_o day_n in_o mercy_n the_o creditor_n permit_v he_o to_o make_v payment_n on_o the_o next_o day_n after_o on_o the_o 8_o day_n of_o march_n shall_v now_o this_o unthankful_a debtor_n thus_o
