A16523	The doctrine of the sabbath plainely layde forth, and soundly proued by testimonies both of holy scripture, and also of olde and new ecclesiasticall writers. Declaring first from what things God would haue vs straightly to rest vpon the Lords day, and then by what meanes we ought publikely and priuatly to sanctifie the same: together with the sundry abuses of our time in both these kindes, and how they ought to bee reformed. Diuided into two bookes, by Nicolas Bownde, Doctor of Diuinitie.	Bownd, Nicholas, d. 1613.	1595 (1595)	STC 3436; ESTC S113231	229,943	300

it_o appear_v by_o the_o circumstance_n of_o the_o story_n that_o this_o be_v then_o ordinary_a though_o not_o in_o all_o place_n at_o the_o first_o for_o this_o meeting_n be_v not_o upon_o this_o

a_o usual_a thing_n in_o the_o church_n to_o receive_v it_o every_o sabbath_n and_o upon_o this_o occasion_n paul_n preach_v and_o because_o he_o be_v to_o depart_v on_o the_o next_o day_n and_o so_o they_o know_v not_o when_o they_o shall_v hear_v he_o again_o therefore_o he_o continue_v preach_v so_o long_o as_o he_o do_v unto_o which_o may_v be_v adjoin_v that_o which_o he_o write_v to_o the_o

poor_a which_o be_v the_o fit_a day_n for_o that_o purpose_n and_o therefore_o no_o doubt_n choose_v out_o by_o the_o apostle_n both_o for_o that_o reason_n he_o allege_v that_o the_o week_n be_v end_v and_o a_o man_n see_v how_o god_n have_v bless_v he_o in_o it_o he_o may_v according_o extend_v his_o liberality_n and_o chief_o because_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v then_o when_o wen_n hear_v the_o

receive_v most_o mercy_n at_o god_n hand_n that_o out_o of_o their_o abundance_n they_o may_v supply_v the_o necessity_n of_o other_o see_v then_o in_o the_o wisdom_n of_o the_o spirit_n it_o seem_v good_a unto_o the_o apostle_n that_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o common_a gather_n among_o the_o corinthian_n as_o well_o as_o among_o other_o for_o the_o persecute_a saint_n we_o must_v needs_o

the_o church_n be_v meet_v together_o they_o be_v ocupy_v in_o so_o many_o part_n of_o god_n service_n which_o may_v move_v their_o heart_n to_o great_a pity_n and_o liberality_n and_o see_v he_o appoint_v this_o collection_n to_o be_v make_v the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n we_o may_v be_v most_o assure_v that_o this_o day_n be_v allot_v out_o unto_o all_o the_o forename_a thing_n
