have_v exact_o follow_v the_o pattern_n than_o the_o six_o day_n of_o the_o week_n will_v bid_v fair_a for_o the_o day_n of_o rest_n of_o all_o the_o seven_o because_o than_o adam_n must_v have_v work_v six_o day_n before_o his_o holy_a rest_n as_o god_n do_v and_o then_o be_v create_v as_o we_o may_v suppose_v about_o the_o latter_a end_n of_o the_o six_o day_n of_o the_o creation_n he_o must_v have_v wrought_v the_o day_n follow_v which_o be_v the_o seven_o and_o so_o the_o five_o other_o day_n follow_v and_o rest_v upon_o the_o six_o day_n as_o his_o first_o sabbath_n for_o that_o will_v have_v be_v the_o day_n after_o his_o six_o day_n labour_n or_o work_n for_o it_o be_v clear_a that_o the_o seven_o day_n after_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o creation_n though_o it_o be_v so_o with_o respect_n to_o god_n work_n yet_o it_o be_v the_o very_a next_o day_n after_o adam_n be_v and_o can_v not_o but_o be_v within_o a_o very_a few_o hour_n if_o hour_n after_o his_o creation_n see_v it_o begin_v in_o the_o evening_n and_o so_o adam_n and_o eve_n be_v so_o far_o from_o a_o exact_a imitation_n of_o god_n in_o the_o observance_n of_o the_o first_o sabbath_n that_o in_o his_o particular_a they_o be_v contrary_a thereto_o for_o god_n wrought_v six_o day_n first_o and_o then_o rest_v the_o seven_o but_o adam_n rest_v his_o first_o day_n and_o then_o wrought_v the_o six_o day_n follow_v god_n rest_n be_v in_o the_o conclusion_n of_o his_o work_n and_o man_n rest_n be_v in_o the_o begin_n of_o his_o work_n in_o his_o first_o seven_o day_n which_o i_o think_v somewhat_o enervate_v this_o solitary_a plea_n they_o have_v here_o for_o the_o last_o week-day-sabbath_n but_o yet_o we_o will_v suppose_v that_o in_o this_o clause_n god_n do_v there_o enjoin_v the_o last_o day_n of_o the_o creation-week_n to_o be_v the_o sabbath_n but_o then_o we_o say_v this_o be_v pure_o positive_a and_o no_o way_n moral_a at_o all_o neither_o primary_o nor_o secondary_o for_o it_o be_v be_v so_o the_o morality_n thereof_o must_v arise_v from_o the_o reason_n that_o be_v give_v for_o it_o viz._n god_n example_n even_o because_o he_o make_v his_o work_n of_o creation_n in_o six_o day_n and_o rest_v on_o the_o seven_o but_o this_o be_v no_o way_n cogent_a or_o rather_o moral_a not_o such_o a_o thing_n as_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n will_v engage_v we_o to_o for_o 1._o god_n be_v not_o to_o be_v imitate_v by_o we_o in_o all_o that_o he_o do_v neither_o can_v the_o rational_a creature_n conclude_v upon_o god_n revelation_n of_o his_o have_v end_v his_o work_n on_o the_o seven_o day_n that_o therefore_o he_o must_v work_v six_o and_o rest_v the_o seven_o without_o a_o express_a injunction_n which_o therefore_o god_n give_v here_o 2._o if_o we_o can_v suppose_v that_o such_o a_o collection_n of_o imitate_v god_n can_v have_v be_v apprehend_v by_o man_n without_o relevation_n then_o the_o six_o day_n of_o the_o week_n will_v by_o he_o be_v pitch_v upon_o for_o his_o own_o sabbath_n of_o rest_n because_o the_o six_o day_n of_o the_o follow_a week_n will_v have_v be_v his_o seven_o day_n after_o his_o six_o day_n work_v as_o before_o 3._o god_n make_v of_o the_o world_n in_o six_o day_n be_v a_o pure_a revelation_n for_o man_n can_v never_o have_v know_v it_o of_o himself_o no_o not_o in_o the_o estate_n of_o his_o pure_a knowledge_n because_o for_o aught_o he_o can_v know_v god_n may_v have_v make_v the_o world_n simultaneous_o all_o at_o once_o or_o by_o one_o word_n speak_v for_o he_o know_v he_o may_v so_o have_v do_v if_o he_o have_v please_v he_o can_v not_o know_v that_o god_n do_v gradual_o or_o progressive_o make_v the_o creature_n much_o less_o that_o he_o take_v up_o six_o day_n for_o it_o neither_o more_o nor_o less_o indeed_o the_o order_n and_o method_n the_o time_n and_o duration_n of_o the_o work_n of_o creation_n must_v be_v by_o revelation_n to_o man_n see_v he_o be_v create_v the_o last_o of_o all_o the_o creature_n so_o that_o in_o this_o respect_n it_o be_v not_o moral_a neither_o can_v it_o ever_o be_v the_o dictate_v of_o man_n mind_n 4._o god_n can_v proper_o rest_v because_o he_o can_v be_v say_v proper_o to_o

glorious_a and_o some_o of_o they_o more_o great_a glorious_a than_o be_v the_o work_n of_o creation_n so_o that_o in_o this_o respect_n this_o argument_n be_v not_o moral_a not_o such_o a_o motive_n as_o can_v have_v be_v find_v out_o by_o the_o mind_n of_o man._n last_o if_o this_o be_v such_o a_o cogent_a reason_n in_o itself_o or_o a_o moral_a motive_n for_o the_o sanctification_n of_o the_o

insert_v that_o it_o be_v therefore_o because_o he_o save_v they_o that_o he_o command_v they_o to_o keep_v the_o sabbath-day_n what_o this_o shall_v signify_v i_o can_v well_o see_v unless_o god_n will_v hereby_o teach_v we_o that_o the_o salvation_n of_o his_o church_n be_v a_o far_o more_o great_a and_o glorious_a work_n in_o itself_o and_o far_o more_o beneficial_a and_o happy_a to_o we_o than_o that_o of_o the_o creation_n for_o the_o deliverance_n of_o israel_n out_o of_o egypt_n by_o the_o hand_n of_o moses_n be_v a_o type_n of_o the_o deliverance_n of_o the_o universal_a church_n from_o the_o devil_n from_o sin_n from_o hell_n from_o the_o curse_n from_o death_n and_o the_o grave_a by_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o that_o when_o this_o shall_v be_v complete_v as_o we_o

glorification_n where_o he_o will_v procure_v it_o apply_v and_o effect_v it_o than_o the_o reason_n annex_v to_o the_o four_o command_n from_o the_o cease_v the_o work_n of_o creation_n shall_v in_o a_o sense_n be_v lie_v by_o and_o that_o of_o the_o redemption_n of_o the_o church_n be_v substitute_v in_o its_o place_n and_o so_o consequent_o as_o the_o seventh-day-sabbath_n be_v observe_v in_o

when_o that_o supreme_a of_o all_o the_o work_n of_o god_n our_o redemption_n shall_v be_v rest_v from_o on_o that_o day_n i_o do_v very_o believe_v god_n neglect_v the_o work_n of_o creation_n and_o

it_o to_o wise_a head_n only_o from_o what_o have_v be_v here_o speak_v i_o will_v conclude_v that_o this_o part_n be_v pure_o positive_a both_o the_o seven_o week-day-sabbath_n and_o this_o motive_n upon_o which_o it_o be_v ground_v god_n work_v six_o day_n and_o rest_v the_o seven_o which_o be_v a_o motive_n to_o we_o to_o observe_v it_o as_o well_o as_o it_o seem_v a_o reason_n in_o god_n to_o require_v it_o wherefore_o here_o i_o will_v fain_o demand_v of_o this_o gentleman_n why_o he_o shall_v be_v so_o exceed_o zealous_a for_o the_o perpetuity_n of_o the_o seventh-day-sabbath_n when_o it_o be_v both_o a_o ceremonial_a and_o positive_a precept_n ceremonial_a as_o it_o signify_v god_n own_o rest_n from_o his_o work_n past_a and_o as_o it_o signify_v our_o future_a rest_n in_o heaven_n from_o all_o our_o labour_n in_o this_o present_a life_n and_o pure_o positive_a see_v all_o the_o former_a ceremonial_a and_o positive_a precept_n
concern_v worship_n be_v abolish_v by_o the_o come_n of_o christ_n why_o shall_v this_o then_o solitary_o be_v exclude_v and_o stand_v in_o its_o strength_n and_o vigour_n when_o all_o its_o other_o companion_n be_v throw_v to_o the_o ground_n and_o vanish_v i_o know_v no_o reason_n but_o because_o this_o be_v write_v by_o the_o singer_n of_o god_n upon_o stone_n but_o this_o alter_v not_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o command_n itself_o neither_o can_v it_o from_o hence_o plead_v a_o great_a privilege_n for_o all_o the_o former_a have_v god_n for_o their_o author_n as_o well_o as_o this_o and_o god_n mouth_n be_v as_o authoritative_a as_o his_o finger_n wherefore_o we_o may_v well_o conclude_v that_o see_v there_o be_v no_o reason_n can_v be_v give_v why_o the_o seventh-day-sabbath_n shall_v not_o recede_v and_o give_v place_n as_o well_o as_o all_o other_o ceremonial_a and_o positive_a precept_n to_o our_o lord_n christ_n at_o his_o come_n and_o his_o new_a and_o more_o glorious_a administration_n that_o it_o be_v and_o aught_o to_o be_v exclude_v with_o they_o and_o give_v place_n to_o a_o more_o glorious_a day_n in_o commemoration_n of_o a_o more_o glorious_a work_n and_o god_n rest_v from_o it_o even_o the_o first_o day_n our_o lord_n glorious_a triumph_a day_n the_o other_o two_o reason_n of_o this_o four_o command_n follow_v which_o be_v god_n bless_v the_o sabbath_n day_n and_o hallow_v it_o where_o it_o be_v worthy_a our_o observance_n though_o this_o author_n deem_v it_o a_o triffe_n that_o it_o be_v the_o sabbath_n day_n not_o the_o seven_o day_n of_o the_o week_n that_o be_v here_o bless_a and_o hallow_a as_o if_o god_n will_v hint_n that_o the_o sabbath_n upon_o what_o day_n soever_o of_o his_o own_o appointment_n shall_v be_v bless_v even_o the_o first_o as_o well_o as_o the_o seven_o day_n of_o the_o week_n when_o in_o the_o latter_a day_n his_o son_n glorious_a rest_n shall_v authorize_v that_o day_n and_o as_o it_o shall_v alter_v

thus_o by_o god_n help_n and_o i_o hope_v his_o guidance_n i_o have_v consider_v all_o his_o argument_n that_o he_o urge_v for_o his_o sabbatarian_n opinion_n and_o have_v show_v their_o invalidity_n

seventh-day-sabbath_n do_v so_o for_o it_o begin_v when_o god_n have_v end_v his_o work_n of_o creation_n which_o be_v the_o evening_n before_o the_o sunrising_n of_o the_o seven_o day_n but_o i_o judge_v that_o now_o the_o best_a time_n to_o begin_v our_o lord_n day_n with_o be_v in_o the_o morning_n because_o 1._o it_o be_v on_o that_o time_n of_o the_o day_n early_o in_o the_o morning_n about_o break_v of_o day_n that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n rest_v from_o his_o work_n of_o redemption_n wherefore_o if_o the_o forego_n evening_n of_o the_o old_a testament-sabbath_n be_v its_o most_o

other_o such_o convenient_a time_n and_o place_n for_o it_o but_o that_o he_o keep_v that_o sabbath_n we_o utter_o deny_v for_o than_o he_o will_v have_v do_v it_o among_o the_o gentile_n as_o well_o as_o among_o the_o jew_n which_o yet_o we_o never_o read_v he_o do_v or_o if_o he_o say_v he_o do_v let_v he_o prove_v it_o which_o we_o be_v sure_a from_o scripture_n he_o can_v never_o do_v nor_o after_o the_o former_a chapter_n that_o ever_o he_o do_v go_v so_o much_o as_o to_o the_o jewish_a synagogue_n for_o this_o be_v all_o the_o proof_n of_o his_o keep_n it_o upon_o the_o seven_o day_n but_o here_o we_o find_v that_o the_o disciple_n come_v together_o von_n the_o first_o day_n and_o paul_n come_v to_o they_o and_o associate_v with_o they_o in_o religious_a duty_n and_o why_o be_v the_o first_o day_n now_o name_v and_o the_o seven_o never_o after_o as_o the_o solemn_a dedicate_v day_n to_o their_o worship_n but_o because_o it_o be_v never_o so_o from_o that_o time_n but_o yet_o this_o be_v not_o all_o the_o condition_n upon_o which_o he_o will_v be_v so_o exceed_o kind_a to_o we_o as_o to_o grant_v the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n to_o be_v sunday_n or_o our_o lord_n

which_o he_o take_v for_o grant_v and_o i_o be_o sure_a do_v but_o guess_v that_o his_o opponent_n do_v that_o it_o be_v in_o the_o evening_n after_o the_o seven_o day_n which_o he_o take_v for_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o first_o day_n and_o so_o paul_n preach_v till_o the_o midnight_n and_o break_v bread_n and_o discourse_v only_o till_o the_o light_n of_o the_o first_o day_n but_o perform_v no_o religious_a duty_n upon_o the_o morning_n of_o that_o day_n at_o all_o but_o as_o soon_o as_o ever_o the_o first_o daylight_n begin_v to_o dawn_n he_o betake_v himself_o to_o what_o be_v

for_o it_o be_v the_o light_n that_o god_n call_v day_n and_o the_o dakness_n he_o call_v night_n gen._n 1.5_o and_o so_o to_o contradict_v the_o express_a word_n of_o the_o text._n beside_o i_o will_v fain_o know_v of_o he_o which_o be_v the_o chief_a part_n of_o a_o natural_a day_n either_o the_o dark_a part_n of_o it_o which_o we_o with_o scripture_n call_v night_n or_o the_o light_a part_n of_o it_o which_o with_o it_o we_o call_v day_n if_o the_o light_a part_n as_o i_o think_v a_o unprejudiced_a mind_n will_v grant_v why_o shall_v he_o suppose_v that_o all_o the_o religious_a duty_n of_o that_o day_n shall_v be_v do_v in_o the_o dark_a thereof_o and_o not_o in_o the_o light_n again_o we_o think_v that_o the_o lord_n day_n do_v not_o begin_v at_o even_o but_o rather_o in_o the_o morning_n when_o our_o lord_n rise_v out_o of_o the_o grave_a that_o be_v the_o great_a occasion_n of_o its_o sanctification_n to_o sacred_a duty_n and_o its_o be_v employ_v therein_o by_o those_o disciple_n and_o paul_n and_o for_o this_o we_o have_v express_v scripture_n i_o mean_v for_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n beginning_n in_o the_o morning_n as_o mat._n 28.1_o in_o the_o end_n of_o the_o sabbath_n as_o it_o begin_v to_o dawn_n towards_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n where_o the_o scripture_n determine_v the_o sabbath_n to_o end_v with_o the_o darkness_n of_o the_o night_n before_o the_o firstday_n morning_n and_o the_o lord_n day_n to_o begin_v at_o the_o dawn_n of_o the_o morning_n of_o the_o first_o day_n so_o far_o be_v it_o from_o truth_n that_o the_o evening_n and_o night_n before_o the_o morning_n of_o it_o be_v part_n of_o that_o day_n at_o least_o in_o this_o scripture_n phrase_n and_o hence_o we_o say_v that_o paul_n begin_v to_o preach_v to_o they_o in_o the_o light_a part_n of_o that_o day_n as_o the_o beginning_n thereof_o and_o continue_v with_o they_o till_o the_o follow_a midnight_n yea_o throughout_o that_o night_n and_o so_o the_o next_o morning_n be_v the_o second_o day_n on_o monday_n take_v his_o journey_n as_o a_o proper_a day_n for_o it_o and_o now_o we_o have_v another_o of_o our_o guess_n which_o be_v that_o the_o break_n of_o bread_n here_o speak_v of_o be_v the_o lord_n supper_n and_o we_o will_v fain_o know_v what_o other_o break_n of_o bread_n shall_v be_v mean_v can_v it_o be_v imagine_v that_o all_o the_o disciple_n shall_v come_v together_o to_o feast_n it_o with_o paul_n and_o that_o too_o in_o the_o night-season_n as_o he_o will_v fain_o have_v it_o they_o have_v house_n of_o their_o own_o to_o eat_v and_o drink_v in_o and_o they_o will_v doubtless_o rather_o choose_v to_o receive_v the_o consecrate_a bread_n from_o the_o apostle_n that_o day_n be_v the_o last_o he_o be_v to_o tarry_v with_o they_o have_v as_o it_o be_v probable_a no_o other_o apostle_n or_o evangelist_n or_o pastor_n with_o they_o at_o that_o time_n than_o to_o eat_v common_a bread_n which_o they_o can_v do_v when_o they_o please_v in_o his_o absence_n and_o the_o sacrament_n be_v more_o suitable_a to_o the_o society_n of_o disciple_n as_o such_o to_o the_o preach_v of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n by_o the_o apostle_n than_o the_o feed_n their_o body_n wherefore_o we_o say_v that_o see_v it_o be_v clear_o here_o imply_v that_o the_o disciple_n gather_v themselves_o together_o von_n this_o day_n as_o upon_o the_o usual_a time_n and_o the_o apostle_n ministerial_o serve_v they_o then_o it_o be_v very_o probable_a and_o more_o than_o a_o bare_a guest_n that_o this_o day_n be_v the_o usual_a

and_o reason_v we_o may_v with_o good_a reason_n pass_v it_o over_o see_v we_o can_v see_v in_o it_o but_o little_a to_o the_o present_a case_n next_o by_o way_n of_o concession_n he_o tell_v we_o

the_o poor_a in_o these_o assembly_n moreover_o if_o the_o apostle_n here_o enjoin_v such_o a_o profane_a or_o worldly_a task_n as_o he_o suppose_v why_o do_v he_o enjoin_v they_o to_o do_v it_o on_o
