of_o the_o same_o word_n use_v in_o the_o commandment_n give_v to_o the_o jew_n concern_v the_o sabbath_n 16._o as_o also_o because_o the_o sabbath_n be_v not_o hallow_v for_o adam_n who_o in_o the_o

18._o second_o instance_n as_o god_n ordain_v sacrament_n to_o adam_n so_o he_o ordain_v to_o he_o a_o seven_o day_n of_o rest_n refute_v by_o a_o reason_n show_v the_o nullity_n of_o that_o

second_o opinion_n do_v say_v that_o the_o keep_n of_o a_o seven_o day_n of_o sabbath_n be_v a_o moral_a thing_n which_o from_o the_o beginning_n of_o the_o world_n shall_v continue_v to_o the_o end_n thereof_o with_o this_o difference_n only_o that_o god_n before_o and_o till_o the_o come_n of_o jesus_n christ_n have_v ordain_v that_o the_o last_o day_n of_o the_o week_n wherein_o he_o rest_v

the_o observation_n of_o one_o of_o seven_o day_n be_v not_o moral_a 20._o second_o answer_n show_v divers_a absurdity_n follow_v the_o opinion_n of_o the_o morality_n of_o one_o of_o seven_o day_n and_o of_o the_o substitution_n of_o the_o first_o of_o seven_o to_o the_o last_o by_o christ_n himself_o 21._o their_o reply_n that_o when_o christ_n make_v the_o first_o alteration_n of_o the_o sabbath_n the_o disciple_n observe_v the_o sabbath_n of_o the_o last_o and_o of_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n consecutive_o be_v but_o a_o imagination_n 22._o christ_n resurrection_n be_v of_o as_o great_a force_n to_o change_v the_o general_a order_n of_o the_o observation_n of_o one_o of_o seven_o day_n as_o of_o the_o last_o day_n of_o the_o week_n nay_o to_o ordain_v each_o four_o day_n of_o the_o week_n for_o god_n service_n as_o well_o as_o the_o first_o 23._o the_o day_n of_o christ_n resurrection_n be_v no_o more_o obligatory_a than_o the_o day_n of_o his_o nativity_n of_o his_o death_n or_o of_o his_o ascension_n and_o be_v a_o mere_a institution_n of_o the_o church_n 24._o seven_o objection_n from_o the_o last_o word_n of_o the_o commandment_n and_o god_n bless_v the_o seven_o day_n and_o sanctify_v it_o whence_o they_o gather_v that_o the_o keep_n of_o the_o seven_o day_n be_v a_o mean_n of_o all_o kind_n of_o blessing_n whereof_o christian_n have_v as_o great_a need_n at_o jew_n etc._n etc._n 25._o first_o answer_n christian_n have_v as_o great_a need_n of_o god_n blessing_n as_o have_v the_o jew_n but_o not_o by_o the_o same_o mean_n 26._o second_o answer_n the_o sabbath_n be_v not_o a_o mean_n of_o blessing_n to_o the_o jew_n by_o any_o inherent_a and_o natural_a quality_n but_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o exercise_n of_o godliness_n practise_v in_o it_o and_o so_o the_o exercise_n of_o our_o christian_a religion_n bring_v a_o blessing_n upon_o we_o whensoever_o they_o be_v practise_v 27._o it_o be_v a_o fond_a assertion_n that_o if_o god_n have_v not_o appoint_v to_o christian_n a_o particular_a day_n for_o his_o service_n as_o he_o do_v to_o the_o jew_n our_o condition_n shall_v be_v worse_o than_o they_o 28._o all_o the_o particularity_n of_o the_o four_o commandment_n may_v be_v apply_v to_o christian_n as_o well_o as_o to_o jew_n 29._o as_o the_o reason_n of_o the_o institution_n of_o their_o holiday_n 30._o which_o nevertheless_o we_o be_v not_o bind_v to_o keep_v 31._o item_n the_o remembrance_n of_o the_o creation_n etc._n etc._n 32._o the_o necessity_n of_o a_o new_a day_n for_o god_n service_n infer_v not_o a_o divine_a institution_n 1_o beside_o the_o general_a argument_n which_o be_v take_v from_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o four_o commandment_n and_o have_v be_v refute_v in_o the_o former_a chapter_n other_o more_o particular_a be_v take_v from_o the_o term_n and_o word_n of_o the_o say_a commandment_n and_o first_o they_o urge_v vehement_o these_o first_o word_n thereof_o remember_v the_o sabbath_n day_n from_o whence_o as_o they_o pretend_v it_o may_v be_v infer_v that_o see_v the_o remember_n of_o a_o thing_n denote_v that_o it_o be_v know_v before_o god_n when_o he_o command_v the_o israelite_n to_o remember_v the_o sabbath_n day_n suppose_v that_o it_o be_v not_o a_o new_a ordinance_n which_o he_o give_v unto_o they_o then_o but_o a_o ancient_a one_o yet_o which_o undoubted_o they_o have_v forget_v and_o whereof_o it_o be_v necessary_a they_o shall_v be_v put_v in_o remembrance_n and_o the_o observation_n urge_v for_o the_o time_n to_o come_v 2_o it_o be_v say_v also_o that_o the_o sanctification_n of_o the_o sabbath_n day_n which_o god_n enjoin_v say_v remember_v the_o sabbath_n day_n to_o keep_v it_o holy_a can_v be_v call_v a_o ceremony_n but_o this_o instance_n be_v very_o feeble_a for_o first_o although_o it_o shall_v prove_v that_o the_o institution_n of_o the_o sabbath_n day_n which_o be_v here_o debate_v do_v precede_v the_o law_n from_o the_o beginning_n it_o can_v for_o all_o that_o enforce_v the_o morality_n thereof_o nay_o much_o otherwise_o some_o do_v think_v that_o god_n in_o the_o beginning_n and_o entrance_n of_o the_o commandment_n use_v the_o word_n remember_v because_o it_o not_o be_v natural_a and_o moral_a as_o the_o rest_n be_v the_o jew_n may_v have_v more_o easy_o forget_v it_o second_o it_o do_v no_o manner_n of_o way_n prove_v the_o antiquity_n of_o this_o ordinance_n for_o when_o he_o that_o command_v any_o thing_n say_v to_o he_o to_o who_o he_o give_v instruction_n remember_v what_o i_o say_v and_o command_v thou_o such_o a_o speech_n imply_v not_o always_o that_o a_o injunction_n be_v give_v he_o of_o a_o thing_n he_o know_v before_o which_o be_v again_o record_v unto_o he_o that_o he_o may_v call_v it_o to_o mind_n nay_o most_o often_o his_o intention_n be_v only_o to_o advise_v he_o to_o consider_v exact_o to_o meditate_v careful_o and_o to_o accomplish_v faithful_o in_o time_n to_o come_v that_o which_o at_o that_o time_n be_v enjoin_v he_o for_o this_o term_n remember_v when_o commandment_n be_v give_v be_v not_o always_o relative_a to_o the_o time_n past_a but_o sometime_o have_v regard_n only_o to_o the_o time_n to_o come_v which_o join_v and_o continue_v for_o some_o day_n or_o year_n successive_o the_o time_n wherein_o they_o be_v give_v be_v past_a and_o so_o man_n have_v need_v to_o call_v they_o to_o mind_n as_o a_o thing_n past_a so_o god_n institute_v the_o passeover_n for_o a_o memorial_n of_o the_o deliverance_n of_o the_o first_o bear_v of_o

day_n see_v otherwise_o to_o do_v they_o be_v not_o a_o sin_n if_o we_o consider_v the_o thing_n absolute_o in_o itself_o this_o power_n of_o the_o four_o commandment_n be_v extend_v to_o all_o christian_n by_o those_o that_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o opinion_n which_o i_o maintain_v and_o nevertheless_o they_o avouch_v almost_o all_o of_o they_o that_o under_o the_o gospel_n we_o be_v

our_o sabbath_n day_n kindle_v the_o fire_n make_v meat_n ready_a not_o only_o for_o our_o ordinary_a refection_n but_o also_o for_o feast_n and_o banquet_n so_o they_o be_v not_o too_o sumptuous_a go_v abroad_o for_o other_o end_n then_o for_o god_n service_n as_o to_o walk_v and_o do_v other_o such_o thing_n and_o that_o without_o the_o case_n of_o urgent_a necessity_n which_o sometime_o make_v they_o lawful_a to_o the_o jew_n themselves_o they_o call_v such_o action_n work_v of_o christian_a liberty_n which_o they_o acknowledge_v to_o be_v permit_v to_o christian_n although_o they_o be_v not_o permit_v to_o the_o jew_n as_o be_v the_o work_n of_o godliness_n mercy_n and_o urgent_a necessity_n whereof_o there_o be_v no_o difficulty_n but_o they_o may_v be_v do_v on_o the_o

ask_v they_o wherefore_o we_o shall_v be_v permit_v to_o do_v some_o work_n which_o be_v prohibit_v to_o the_o jew_n on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n as_o to_o kindle_v the_o fire_n prepare_v and_o dress_v meat_n walk_v abroad_o without_o necessity_n and_o not_o other_o work_n which_o be_v not_o forbid_v more_o severe_o than_o the_o former_a as_o to_o plough_v sow_n reap_v carry_v burden_n etc._n etc._n the_o one_o and_o the_o other_o be_v alike_o unlawful_a to_o the_o jew_n in_o virtue_n of_o the_o interdiction_n give_v in_o the_o four_o commandment_n and_o reiterated_a so_o often_o elsewhere_o if_o this_o interdiction_n tie_v still_o our_o hand_n under_o the_o new_a testament_n and_o suffer_v we_o not_o to_o do_v these_o last_o work_n and_o other_o such_o like_a i_o will_v fain_o know_v upon_o what_o ground_n they_o hold_v that_o it_o release_v and_o suffer_v we_o to_o do_v these_o former_a work_n what_o reason_n have_v they_o to_o extend_v our_o christian_a liberty_n to_o the_o one_o and_o not_o to_o the_o other_o see_v there_o be_v no_o relaxation_n give_v we_o for_o the_o one_o more_o express_o than_o for_o the_o other_o see_v also_o mean_n may_v be_v find_v to_o do_v the_o last_o as_o well_o as_o the_o first_o without_o scandal_n and_o without_o any_o let_v by_o either_o to_o the_o sanctification_n of_o the_o sabbath_n day_n 6_o therefore_o we_o must_v of_o necessity_n confess_v that_o they_o be_v equal_o permit_v or_o equal_o forbid_v see_v the_o four_o commandment_n make_v no_o distinction_n now_o they_o advow_v that_o some_o work_n be_v permit_v to_o we_o which_o

that_o we_o have_v liberty_n to_o do_v they_o all_o on_o our_o sunday_n and_o that_o as_o the_o four_o commandment_n oblige_v not_o christian_n to_o keep_v the_o seven_o day_n which_o it_o prescribe_v

as_o much_o if_o not_o more_o of_o their_o time_n which_o nevertheless_o god_n leave_v to_o the_o liberty_n of_o the_o church_n to_o ordain_v with_o wisdom_n and_o conscience_n as_o have_v be_v

be_v so_o call_v for_o the_o sabbath_n day_n be_v and_o ought_v to_o be_v sanctify_v by_o moral_a duty_n but_o in_o as_o much_o as_o it_o be_v tie_v to_o the_o seven_o day_n and_o be_v practise_v by_o

they_o say_v there_o be_v a_o reason_n of_o the_o observation_n of_o the_o seven_o day_n of_o sabbath_n which_o have_v its_o foundation_n in_o equity_n and_o justice_n for_o if_o god_n give_v to_o man_n six_o day_n for_o their_o own_o affair_n and_o for_o the_o work_n of_o their_o worldly_a call_n be_v it_o not_o more_o than_o just_a that_o they_o consecrate_v a_o seven_o day_n to_o his_o

whence_o it_o be_v take_v be_v not_o a_o ceremonial_a thing_n no_o more_o shall_v the_o rest_n of_o the_o seven_o day_n be_v ceremonial_a 4_o i_o answer_v that_o in_o the_o foresay_a reason_n there_o be_v a_o manifest_a justice_n and_o equity_n which_o continue_v for_o ever_o but_o that_o justice_n be_v general_o in_o this_o that_o if_o a_o man_n have_v many_o day_n for_o himself_o and_o for_o his_o own_o work_n it_o be_v reasonable_a he_o consecrate_v one_o among_o many_o for_o god_n service_n yea_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o great_a deal_n more_o justice_n to_o employ_v if_o it_o be_v possible_a a_o great_a number_n of_o day_n upon_o god_n service_n then_o upon_o our_o own_o business_n nay_o to_o bestow_v they_o all_o also_o in_o consequence_n of_o this_o justice_n and_o equity_n we_o have_v say_v before_o that_o under_o the_o new_a testament_n in_o who_o time_n the_o christian_n be_v far_o more_o beholden_a to_o god_n than_o the_o jew_n be_v since_o god_n have_v discharge_v they_o of_o many_o burden_n of_o outward_a ceremony_n which_o do_v lay_v heavy_a upon_o that_o people_n and_o have_v call_v they_o to_o be_v in_o some_o sort_n a_o people_n more_o frank_a and_o more_o affectionate_a to_o his_o service_n all_o the_o day_n of_o the_o week_n as_o much_o as_o possible_o can_v be_v shall_v be_v holy_a day_n unto_o the_o lord_n and_o because_o they_o can_v possible_o meet_v together_o every_o day_n to_o serve_v in_o common_a which_o nevertheless_o he_o look_v for_o as_o well_o as_o for_o a_o particular_a service_n they_o must_v stint_v some_o ordinary_a day_n for_o that_o end_n and_o in_o this_o stint_n must_v not_o show_v themselves_o inferior_n to_o the_o jew_n appoint_v less_o than_o one_o day_n among_o seven_o to_o god_n service_n this_o be_v all_o that_o can_v be_v gather_v from_o the_o foresay_a reason_n as_o it_o be_v obligatory_a for_o ever_o for_o to_o dedicate_v to_o god_n precise_o a_o seven_o day_n after_o we_o have_v bestow_v six_o day_n upon_o ourselves_o it_o can_v be_v deny_v but_o that_o it_o be_v most_o just_a yet_o it_o be_v not_o more_o just_a nor_o better_o proportion_v nor_o more_o obligatory_a of_o itself_o and_o in_o its_o own_o nature_n special_o to_o christian_n nay_o not_o so_o much_o as_o to_o consecrate_v to_o god_n one_o of_o six_o or_o of_o five_o or_o of_o four_o for_o the_o more_o we_o hallow_v to_o god_n the_o more_o do_v we_o that_o which_o be_v just_a equitable_a and_o well_o order_v and_o the_o more_o do_v we_o perform_v our_o duty_n that_o we_o be_v natural_o bind_v unto_o towards_o he_o if_o then_o god_n ordain_v in_o time_n pass_v under_o the_o law_n that_o the_o day_n which_o he_o will_v have_v his_o people_n to_o dedicate_v unto_o he_o shall_v be_v particular_o one_o of_o seven_o it_o be_v not_o for_o any_o natural_a justice_n which_o be_v more_o in_o that_o number_n or_o for_o any_o proportion_n which_o in_o itself_o be_v more_o convenient_a in_o that_o behalf_n than_o the_o appointment_n of_o any_o other_o number_n but_o because_o it_o be_v his_o good_a pleasure_n to_o direct_v and_o rule_v for_o that_o season_n the_o time_n of_o his_o service_n and_o to_o impose_v no_o more_o than_o one_o day_n of_o seven_o upon_o a_o people_n load_v already_o with_o many_o ceremony_n and_o therefore_o no_o particular_a justice_n be_v tie_v to_o this_o number_n of_o seven_o more_o than_o to_o any_o other_o this_o reason_n contain_v in_o the_o foresay_a word_n of_o the_o four_o commandment_n can_v be_v moral_a nor_o consequent_o perpetual_a but_o only_o positive_a and_o for_o a_o short_a continuance_n in_o that_o it_o command_v to_o work_v six_o day_n and_o to_o rest_v the_o seven_o day_n it_o be_v moral_a only_a in_o the_o foundation_n and_o substance_n thereof_o which_o be_v this_o that_o if_o god_n give_v we_o liberty_n to_o bestow_v a_o number_n of_o day_n upon_o our_o own_o affair_n it_o be_v reasonable_a that_o there_o be_v one_o day_n appoint_v wherein_o we_o ought_v to_o serve_v he_o we_o i_o say_v that_o be_v christian_n and_o that_o as_o frequent_o nay_o much_o more_o than_o the_o jew_n do_v which_o we_o accord_n willing_o to_o be_v perpetual_a but_o with_o this_o restriction_n that_o under_o the_o new_a testament_n the_o choice_n of_o one_o day_n among_o a_o number_n of_o other_o day_n be_v not_o stint_v of_o god_n and_o that_o he_o bind_v we_o no_o more_o to_o one_o of_o seven_o then_o to_o one_o of_o six_o or_o of_o five_o 3_o whereas_o they_o add_v that_o as_o the_o labour_n of_o six_o day_n be_v not_o a_o thing_n ceremonial_a so_o neither_o shall_v the_o rest_n on_o the_o seven_o day_n be_v place_v in_o that_o rank_n i_o answer_v first_o infer_v from_o thence_o a_o contrary_a argument_n that_o as_o to_o take_v pain_n in_o the_o work_n of_o our_o temporal_a calling_n consider_v the_o condition_n of_o this_o present_a life_n be_v a_o thing_n just_a and_o necessary_a and_o may_v be_v call_v moral_n but_o to_o work_v of_o seven_o day_n six_o have_v not_o in_o it_o any_o special_a necessity_n even_o so_o it_o be_v necessary_a just_a and_o moral_a to_o dedicate_v some_o time_n to_o god_n public_a service_n but_o that_o such_o a_o time_n shall_v be_v precise_o one_o of_o seven_o day_n be_v by_o no_o mean_n moral_a second_o that_o which_o i_o say_v to_o be_v ceremonial_a in_o the_o 4._o commandment_n be_v the_o commandment_n itself_o to_o wit_n that_o which_o god_n express_o and_o purposely_o enjoin_v to_o be_v keep_v as_o belong_v to_o his_o outward_a and_o public_a service_n now_o he_o command_v not_o any_o thing_n in_o it_o precise_o save_v the_o observation_n and_o sanctification_n of_o the_o day_n of_o rest_n by_o refrain_v from_o all_o temporal_a calling_n and_o whereas_o it_o be_v say_v six_o day_n shall_v thou_o labour_v as_o that_o make_v no_o part_n of_o god_n service_n no_o more_o do_v it_o make_v a_o part_n of_o the_o commandment_n although_o god_n thereby_o warn_v man_n that_o they_o ought_v not_o to_o pass_v their_o day_n in_o idleness_n but_o shall_v apply_v themselves_o every_o day_n to_o the_o labour_n of_o a_o honest_a call_n but_o be_v a_o permission_n put_v only_o by_o concession_n and_o relative_o to_o the_o commandment_n in_o this_o sense_n thou_o be_v permit_v to_o work_v six_o day_n but_o on_o the_o 7_o day_n thou_o shall_v abstain_v from_o all_o kind_n of_o
