thou_o keep_v holy_a the_o sabbath_n day_n xâ—_n exo._n xâ—_n syxe_v day_n shall_v thou_o work_v and_o the_o seven_o be_v the_o sabbath_n of_o the_o lord_n thy_o god_n thou_o shall_v do_v no_o work_n there_o on_o sabbath_n justitution_n of_o the_o sabbath_n in_o this_o speech_n god_n principal_o show_v to_o the_o people_n of_o israel_n that_o a_o man_n can_v not_o be_v sanctify_v nor_o justify_v by_o his_o own_o work_n but_o prove_v that_o to_o come_v to_o holiness_n behove_v to_o keep_v goostly_a sabbath_n this_o be_v purport_n and_o intent_n of_o this_o commandment_n namely_o that_o we_o ought_v to_o be_v dead_a to_o the_o work_n of_o our_o own_o flesh_n for_o bear_v and_o rest_n from_o sin_n and_o continual_o have_v our_o meditation_n &_o study_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n practice_v ourselves_o in_o this_o goostly_a rest_n we_o sanctify_v the_o christian_a sabbath_n for_o this_o consyderation_n it_o be_v i_o think_v that_o austen_n write_v unto_o januarius_n say_v 12._o lib._n 2._o ca._n 12._o that_o this_o commandment_n of_o the_o sabbath_n be_v figurative_a &_o a_o shadow_n touch_v the_o outward_a keep_v of_o the_o day_n which_o be_v clean_o abrogate_a together_o with_o all_o other_o shadow_n and_o ceremony_n of_o moses_n by_o the_o death_n of_o jesu_n christ_n wherefore_o ancient_a writer_n say_v sabbath_n three_o cause_n of_o the_o sabbath_n that_o god_n appoint_v the_o commandment_n of_o the_o sabbath_n for_o three_o cause_n cause_n first_o cause_n first_o because_o the_o lord_n under_o the_o commandment_n of_o the_o bodily_a rest_n will_v have_v understand_v the_o spiritual_a &_o goostly_a quiet_a wherein_o the_o faithful_a surcease_n from_o fleshly_a work_n &_o geve_v place_n to_o god_n to_o work_v in_o they_o the_o work_n of_o the_o holy_a goost_n cause_n second_o cause_n the_o second_o cause_n why_o the_o sabbath_n be_v command_v to_o the_o jew_n be_v that_o the_o people_n of_o the_o hebrews_n may_v have_v a_o appoint_v to_o hear_v the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n the_o three_o cause_n be_v that_o servant_n cause_n third_o cause_n and_o such_o as_o be_v in_o subjection_n and_o under_o the_o commandment_n or_o rule_n of_o other_o may_v have_v some_o ease_n and_o discontinuaunce_n of_o labour_n thus_o albeit_o that_o we_o find_v how_o the_o sabbath_n be_v institute_v for_o three_o cause_n aforesaid_a yet_o nevertheless_o the_o principal_a and_o chief_a cause_n why_o this_o ceremonial_a commandment_n be_v give_v be_v because_o it_o shall_v sygnify_v &_o import_v to_o we_o the_o rest_n from_o sin_n &_o hallow_v of_o our_o soul_n and_o mind_n for_o this_o cause_n we_o read_v in_o the_o old_a testament_n that_o there_o be_v no_o commandment_n so_o precise_o and_o straight_o give_v to_o the_o jew_n xxxv_o exo._n xxxv_o as_o the_o keep_v of_o the_o sabbath_n be_v when_o god_n complain_v that_o all_o religion_n be_v destroy_v and_o waste_v among_o the_o jew_n xvii_o hier._n xvii_o he_o lament_v that_o this_o sabbath_n be_v break_v xx_o qezech_n xx_o that_o it_o be_v not_o keep_v not_o sanctify_v as_o though_o the_o lord_n shall_v say_v religion_n sabbath_n be_v all_o religion_n that_o when_o the_o sabbath_n be_v defile_v &_o despise_v there_o remain_v no_o other_o thing_n wherwyth_o god_n can_v be_v honour_v wherefore_o the_o lord_n command_v the_o religion_n of_o the_o sabbath_n above_o all_o other_o spiritual_a work_n speak_v to_o his_o people_n on_o this_o wise_a take_v head_n o_o you_o child_n of_o israel_n that_o you_o keep_v my_o sabbath_n xixi._n exo._n xixi._n because_o it_o be_v a_o sign_n between_o i_o and_o you_o through_o out_o your_o generation_n that_o you_o may_v know_v that_o i_o be_o the_o lord_n that_o sanctify_v you_o keep_v the_o sabbath_n for_o it_o be_v holy_a unto_o you_o it_o be_v a_o everlasting_a covenaunt_n between_o i_o &_o the_o people_n of_o israel_n and_o a_o perpetual_a sign_n by_o these_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v well_o perceave_v that_o the_o sabbath_n be_v a_o sign_n whereby_o the_o people_n of_o israel_n may_v know_v that_o god_n be_v their_o sanctifier_n a_o christian_a man_n can_v not_o become_v holy_a onlesse_a first_o of_o all_o he_o crucify_v the_o evil_a desire_n of_o his_o carnal_a will_n therefore_o the_o straight_o keep_v of_o the_o ceremonial_a sabbath_n be_v not_o the_o thing_n that_o can_v make_v we_o holy_a but_o it_o be_v a_o shadow_n and_o sign_n which_o teach_v we_o to_o leave_v of_o from_o our_o fleshly_a work_n that_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n may_v work_v in_o we_o the_o true_a sanctification_n sabbath_n goostlye_o sabbath_n so_o that_o the_o carnal_a will_n of_o the_o christian_a man_n shall_v geve_v place_n to_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n his_o worldly_a heart_n to_o the_o will_n of_o god_n our_o body_n with_o all_o the_o carnal_a membre_n thereof_o shall_v rest_n from_o voice_n &_o all_o dishonest_a work_n that_o god_n may_v do_v in_o we_o his_o holy_a and_o goostly_a
