twofold_n first_o because_o god_n rest_v upon_o that_o day_n and_o second_o because_o we_o be_v to_o rest_v upon_o that_o day_n the_o seven_o proposition_n be_v this_o that_o all_o that_o it_o be_v in_o the_o four_o commandment_n be_v not_o essential_a to_o the_o commandment_n the_o four_o commandment_n deliver_v only_o these_o two_o thing_n first_o that_o god_n will_v have_v a_o seven_o day_n second_o that_o this_o seven_o day_n be_v to_o be_v the_o day_n of_o god_n rest_n this_o be_v the_o whole_a meaning_n of_o the_o four_o commandment_n now_o all_o other_o particular_n in_o the_o four_o commandment_n be_v not_o essential_a to_o the_o four_o commandment_n as_o that_o god_n make_v heaven_n and_o earth_n in_o six_o day_n and_o rest_v the_o seven_o day_n etc._n etc._n it_o be_v not_o essential_a to_o the_o four_o commandment_n but_o because_o at_o that_o time_n when_o god_n deliver_v the_o decalogue_n there_o be_v no_o great_a work_n than_o the_o creation_n and_o the_o rest_n from_o that_o work_n be_v the_o rest_n from_o the_o great_a work_n in_o the_o world_n therefore_o it_o be_v keep_v upon_o the_o last_o day_n of_o the_o week_n upon_o which_o god_n rest_v from_o the_o creation_n now_o the_o meaning_n of_o the_o four_o commandment_n be_v in_o the_o eight_o verse_n all_o the_o other_o particular_n be_v but_o commentary_n to_o open_v it_o to_o the_o jew_n remember_v the_o sabbath_n day_n to_o keep_v it_o holy_a this_o be_v the_o four_o commandment_n the_o sabbath_n that_o be_v the_o day_n that_o god_n rest_v on_o and_o the_o day_n that_o we_o be_v to_o rest_v upon_o this_o be_v the_o holy_a day_n that_o be_v devote_v to_o the_o lord_n now_o it_o be_v keep_v upon_o the_o last_o day_n of_o the_o week_n because_o god_n create_v heaven_n and_o earth_n and_o rest_v upon_o that_o day_n and_o the_o creation_n of_o heaven_n and_o earth_n be_v the_o great_a work_n that_o god_n then_o have_v do_v but_o than_o you_o will_v say_v why_o do_v the_o commandment_n quest_n say_v that_o in_o six_o day_n god_n create_v heaven_n and_o earth_n and_o rest_v the_o seven_o day_n i_o answer_v it_o be_v no_o strange_a thing_n to_o see_v some_o 1._o thing_n in_o the_o commandment_n which_o be_v not_o essential_a to_o they_o because_o the_o commandment_n be_v deliver_v to_o the_o jew_n though_o they_o concern_v the_o whole_a world_n yet_o the_o person_n that_o actual_o stand_v before_o god_n when_o the_o decalogue_n be_v deliver_v be_v only_o the_o jew_n deut._n 5._o 22._o god_n speak_v to_o the_o jew_n now_o no_o wonder_n god_n speak_v to_o the_o jew_n do_v speak_v divers_a particular_n according_a to_o they_o and_o in_o their_o phrase_n which_o if_o we_o have_v be_v alive_a and_o they_o to_o succeed_v we_o god_n will_v have_v speak_v according_a to_o we_o as_o he_o do_v according_a to_o they_o 2._o second_o we_o see_v plain_o there_o be_v some_o thing_n in_o the_o commandment_n which_o do_v not_o concern_v the_o whole_a world_n but_o only_o the_o nation_n of_o the_o jew_n as_o in_o the_o first_o commandment_n i_o have_v bring_v thou_o out_o of_o the_o land_n of_o egypt_n out_o of_o the_o house_n of_o bondage_n thou_o shall_v have_v no_o other_o god_n but_o i_o that_o be_v the_o commandment_n but_o though_o they_o together_o with_o the_o other_o be_v put_v into_o the_o table_n of_o stone_n yet_o it_o concern_v only_o the_o jew_n it_o be_v true_a indeed_o it_o be_v a_o type_n of_o our_o deliverance_n that_o we_o be_v deliver_v from_o hell_n and_o sin_n and_o satan_n as_o they_o be_v deliver_v out_o of_o egypt_n and_o the_o house_n of_o bondage_n but_o literal_o these_o word_n belong_v only_o to_o the_o jew_n and_o the_o commandment_n be_v this_o thou_o shall_v have_v no_o other_o god_n but_o i_o so_o it_o be_v for_o the_o four_o commandment_n again_o there_o be_v something_o in_o the_o five_o commandment_n that_o do_v not_o concern_v we_o but_o only_o they_o honour_v thy_o father_n and_o thy_o mother_n etc._n etc._n that_o thy_o day_n may_v be_v long_o in_o the_o land_n which_o the_o thy_o god_n give_v thou_o that_o belong_v only_o to_o the_o jew_n it_o be_v mean_v particular_o of_o the_o land_n of_o canaan_n this_o then_o be_v the_o effect_n of_o the_o commandment_n honour_v thy_o father_n and_o thy_o mother_n that_o thy_o day_n may_v be_v long_o in_o the_o land_n of_o canaan_n so_o that_o the_o first_o word_n be_v the_o commandment_n and_o the_o latter_a part_n belong_v only_o to_o the_o jew_n so_o deut._n 5._o 14._o the_o four_o commandment_n it_o be_v put_v into_o the_o table_n of_o stone_n thus_o remember_v the_o seven_o day_n to_o keep_v it_o holy_a for_o the_o seven_o day_n be_v the_o sabbath_n of_o the_o lord_n thy_o god_n in_o it_o thou_o shall_v do_v no_o manner_n of_o work_n thou_o nor_o thy_o son_n nor_o thy_o daughter_n etc._n etc._n that_o thy_o manservant_n and_o thy_o maid-servant_n may_v rest_v as_o well_o as_o thou_o that_o belong_v to_o we_o as_o well_o as_o to_o they_o but_o than_o it_o follow_v remember_v thou_o be_v a_o servant_n in_o the_o land_n of_o egypt_n here_o you_o see_v the_o jew_n have_v another_o argument_n beside_o the_o argument_n that_o we_o have_v but_o though_o we_o have_v not_o that_o argument_n yet_o the_o commandment_n stand_v still_o and_o the_o commandment_n be_v only_o thus_o much_o namely_o that_o there_o must_v be_v a_o seven_o day_n and_o that_o seven_o day_n god_n rest_v upon_o now_o whereas_o the_o jew_n keep_v the_o last_o day_n of_o the_o week_n that_o be_v only_o by_o a_o temporary_a commandment_n because_o the_o make_n of_o heaven_n and_o earth_n be_v the_o great_a thing_n that_o god_n have_v then_o do_v and_o god_n rest_v from_o that_o upon_o that_o day_n but_o now_o if_o god_n work_v a_o great_a work_n than_o the_o create_v of_o heaven_n and_o earth_n and_o rest_n from_o that_o then_o by_o virtue_n of_o the_o four_o commandment_n we_o be_v to_o keep_v that_o day_n holy_a upon_o which_o he_o rest_v from_o that_o work_n now_o i_o come_v to_o the_o eight_o proposition_n that_o church_n this_o four_o commandment_n concern_v a_o sabbath_n day_n concern_v the_o keep_n of_o a_o seven_o day_n holy_a it_o be_v a_o continual_a commandment_n always_o to_o abide_v in_o the_o church_n of_o god_n i_o will_v prove_v it_o by_o divers_a argument_n that_o it_o be_v not_o to_o continue_v only_o in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o jew_n but_o it_o be_v to_o abide_v always_o in_o the_o church_n to_o the_o come_n of_o the_o son_n of_o man_n there_o be_v not_o a_o jot_n of_o ceremony_n in_o the_o four_o commandment_n the_o first_o reason_n be_v because_o god_n do_v institute_v 1._o the_o sabbath_n before_o there_o be_v any_o room_n for_o ceremony_n it_o be_v command_v to_o adam_n in_o his_o innocency_n now_o all_o ceremony_n do_v prefigure_v christ_n and_o before_o adam_n fall_v there_o be_v no_o promise_n of_o the_o seed_n of_o the_o woman_n nor_o no_o need_n of_o it_o and_o so_o no_o need_n of_o a_o figure_n to_o represent_v it_o but_o before_o adam_n fall_v the_o sabbath_n be_v prescribe_v gen._n 2._o 2_o 3._o on_o the_o seven_o day_n god_n rest_v from_o all_o that_o he_o have_v make_v so_o that_o god_n bless_v the_o seven_o day_n and_o sanctify_v it_o so_o that_o you_o see_v god_n have_v rest_v upon_o this_o day_n he_o sanctify_v it_o and_o put_v holiness_n upon_o it_o therefore_o we_o be_v not_o to_o name_v that_o common_a which_o he_o have_v name_v holy_a now_o though_o we_o do_v not_o read_v of_o adam_n keep_v this_o day_n nor_o abel_n nor_o enoch_n nor_o noah_n nor_o abraham_n nor_o isaac_n nor_o jacob_n yet_o it_o do_v not_o follow_v it_o be_v not_o keep_v for_o moses_n do_v not_o take_v in_o hand_n to_o set_v down_o the_o action_n of_o the_o father_n but_o only_o general_o for_o you_o see_v what_o a_o short_a story_n we_o have_v of_o methushelah_n a_o good_a man_n though_o he_o live_v a_o thousand_o year_n almost_o yet_o we_o have_v scarce_o three_o syllable_n concern_v he_o now_o since_o moses_n do_v not_o undertake_v to_o set_v down_o all_o that_o they_o do_v therefore_o they_o may_v keep_v the_o sabbath_n though_o he_o do_v not_o set_v it_o down_o neither_o afterward_o do_v he_o set_v it_o down_o for_o 319._o year_n and_o 111._o year_n which_o 430._o year_n to_o the_o time_n of_o the_o judge_n we_o have_v nothing_o speak_v of_o concern_v the_o sabbath_n therefore_o see_v god_n do_v institute_n it_n to_o adam_n in_o his_o innocency_n that_o be_v enough_o but_o what_o though_o the_o father_n have_v not_o keep_v it_o holy_a do_v it_o therefore_o follow_v that_o we_o must_v not_o keep_v it_o holy_a they_o have_v many_o wife_n do_v it_o therefore_o follow_v that_o we_o must_v have_v
one_o part_n of_o it_o namely_o the_o cup_n which_o be_v put_v for_o the_o whole_a and_o be_v make_v all_o to_o drink_v of_o the_o same_o cup_n we_o be_v all_o of_o one_o and_o the_o self_n same_o

which_o be_v a_o peculiar_a company_n of_o man_n and_o woman_n out_o of_o all_o nation_n under_o heaven_n predestinate_v to_o eternal_a life_n gather_v together_o by_o the_o word_n and_o make_v all_o

god_n say_v col._n 1._o 18._o he_o be_v the_o head_n of_o the_o body_n the_o church_n so_o that_o the_o church_n be_v the_o body_n of_o christ_n that_o same_o peculiar_a company_n of_o man_n and_o

the_o world_n and_o be_v not_o of_o this_o brotherhood_n now_o i_o call_v this_o invisible_a for_o though_o their_o person_n and_o course_n and_o manner_n of_o life_n be_v see_v and_o know_v and_o they_o may_v be_v know_v who_o they_o be_v yet_o all_o of_o they_o be_v never_o know_v nor_o ever_o will_v be_v there_o may_v be_v more_o than_o we_o can_v tell_v and_o few_o than_o we_o think_v of_o

company_n as_o be_v gather_v out_o nation_n of_o all_o nation_n under_o heaven_n as_o saint_n john_n speak_v rev._n 7._o 9_o after_o this_o behold_v and_o lo_o i_o see_v a_o great_a multitude_n of_o all_o nation_n &_o country_n and_o tongue_n etc._n etc._n though_o it_o be_v a_o little_a flock_n in_o respect_n of_o the_o reprobate_n yet_o it_o be_v a_o great_a multitude_n consider_v in_o itself_o and_o they_o stand_v before_o the_o throne_n &_o before_o the_o lamb_n with_o long_a white_a robe_n and_o with_o palm_n in_o their_o hand_n this_o white_a robe_n be_v the_o righteousness_n of_o

a_o set_a day_n that_o the_o lord_n have_v call_v for_o to_o be_v devote_v unto_o he_o the_o very_a schoolman_n themselves_o do_v acknowledge_v this_o and_o the_o very_a heathen_a have_v find_v it_o out_o they_o have_v set_v a_o day_n apart_o for_o the_o service_n of_o their_o god_n which_o they_o call_v their_o holy_a day_n wherein_o they_o lie_v aside_o all_o other_o business_n and_o set_v themselves_o a_o part_n to_o honour_n and_o worship_v their_o image_n and_o idol_n according_a to_o their_o manner_n now_o i_o will_v make_v this_o good_a by_o many_o argument_n that_o god_n will_v have_v a_o set_a day_n beside_o the_o every_o day_n sabbath_n he_o will_v have_v a_o set_v particular_a sabbath_n for_o his_o worship_n and_o service_n the_o first_o reason_n be_v because_o he_o

now_o god_n will_v have_v a_o little_a picture_n of_o this_o among_o his_o saint_n here_o upon_o earth_n you_o know_v there_o remain_v a_o rest_n for_o the_o people_n of_o god_n heb._n 4._o 9_o it_o

yet_o they_o ever_o keep_v a_o sabbath_n day_n yea_o it_o be_v certain_a many_o of_o the_o heathen_a themselves_o keep_v the_o sabbath_n after_o their_o manner_n alexandrinus_n a_o godly_a father_n that_o live_v but_o a_o little_a after_o christ_n say_v that_o the_o heathen_a do_v count_v the_o seven_o day_n a_o holy_a day_n and_o it_o be_v relate_v of_o alexander_n severus_n emperor_n of_o

i_o conclude_v the_o proof_n of_o this_o point_n with_o the_o say_n of_o our_o saviour_n christ_n mat._n 5._o 18._o heaven_n and_o earth_n shall_v pass_v away_o but_o not_o one_o jot_n or_o title_n
