Also the seventh day Sabbath, proved from the beginning, from the law, from the prophets, from Christ, from his apostles, to be a duty yet incumbent upon saints and sinners. / By a lover of peace with truth Edward Stennet.

imagination_n concern_v the_o cause_n of_o god_n institute_v the_o sabbath_n see_v god_n so_o plain_o declare_v it_o himself_o namely_o that_o he_o bless_v the_o seven_o day_n and_o sanctify_v it_o
