in_o these_o day_n cast_v off_o the_o holy_a ordinance_n and_o institution_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n be_v this_o they_o find_v it_o clear_a in_o scripture_n that_o the_o continuance_n of_o these_o

that_o in_o this_o sense_n christ_n be_v come_v to_o they_o already_o they_o conceive_v it_o high_a time_n for_o they_o to_o quit_v and_o shake_v off_o all_o outward_a form_n object_n if_o against_o what_o i_o have_v say_v it_o be_v object_v that_o zechary_n chap._n 14.16_o speak_v of_o this_o time_n tell_v we_o they_o shall_v go_v up_o from_o year_n to_o year_n to_o worship_v the_o lord_n and_o to_o keep_v the_o feast_n of_o tabernacle_n therefore_o ordinance_n shall_v be_v at_o this_o day_n i_o answer_v if_o by_o worship_v the_o lord_n and_o keep_v the_o feast_n of_o tabernacle_n we_o understand_v a_o walk_n in_o ordinance_n then_o shall_v the_o ordinance_n at_o this_o day_n be_v common_a to_o all_o even_o the_o worst_a of_o sinner_n for_o that_o such_o at_o this_o day_n shall_v be_v in_o the_o world_n have_v be_v before_o prove_v and_o observe_v the_o command_v to_o come_v up_o to_o jerusalem_n to_o worship_v the_o lord_n and_o to_o keep_v the_o feast_n of_o tabernacle_n

heathen_a vers_fw-la 18._o and_o if_o ordinance_n shall_v be_v so_o common_a at_o this_o day_n then_o will_v the_o purity_n of_o worship_n in_o respect_n of_o the_o worshipper_n be_v less_o then_o than_o now_o it_o be_v and_o if_o so_o where_o then_o will_v be_v the_o holiness_n of_o this_o day_n which_o in_o this_o respect_n be_v to_o excel_v all_o day_n before_o it_o the_o meaning_n therefore_o i_o conceive_v be_v this_o that_o all_o people_n in_o remembrance_n of_o the_o terrible_a destruction_n christ_n make_v of_o his_o enemy_n gather_v together_o at_o jerusalem_n upon_o his_o
