upon_o one_o of_o the_o most_o controversall_a question_n of_o these_o time_n wherein_o i_o will_v notwithstanding_o plain_o proceed_v as_o be_v fit_a for_o this_o treatise_n make_v god_n word_n my_o

i_o say_v that_o we_o under_o the_o new_a testament_n be_v tie_v to_o the_o observation_n of_o a_o sabbath_n as_o well_o as_o the_o jew_n be_v of_o old_a and_o by_o as_o great_a authority_n reason_n 1_o 5._o rom._n 5._o and_o this_o appear_v first_o from_o the_o time_n of_o the_o institution_n of_o the_o sabbath_n which_o be_v when_o man_n live_v in_o paradise_n immediate_o after_o his_o

be_v restore_v to_o that_o estate_n which_o we_o lose_v in_o the_o first_o adam_n and_o why_o then_o shall_v it_o differ_v by_o the_o cessation_n of_o the_o sabbath_n some_o think_v that_o the_o

of_o this_o commandment_n of_o the_o sabbath_n for_o it_o be_v here_o place_v among_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o moral_a law_n which_o be_v to_o continue_v in_o force_n for_o ever_o according_a to_o

that_o of_o old_a it_o be_v keep_v in_o paradise_n which_o do_v alike_o bind_v we_o as_o it_o do_v the_o jew_n 2._o because_o of_o the_o equity_n it_o be_v but_o one_o day_n of_o seven_o and_o
