as_o the_o jew_n be_v to_o keep_v the_o sabbath_n and_o sundry_a man_n be_v of_o this_o mind_n but_o i_o take_v it_o this_o opinion_n be_v not_o warrantable_a for_o as_o we_o say_v before_o the_o

seven_o day_n for_o the_o sabbath_n both_o in_o respect_n of_o rest_n as_o also_o in_o regard_n of_o sanctification_n thereof_o but_o that_o it_o bind_v they_o to_o the_o same_o strait_a manner_n of_o keep_v the_o rest_n as_o it_o do_v the_o jew_n we_o utter_o deny_v second_o that_o the_o reason_n use_v to_o inforc_n the_o commandment_n do_v equal_o bind_v all_o therefore_o the_o commandment_n

after_o it_o consider_v that_o before_o the_o fall_n ceremony_n signify_v sanctification_n have_v no_o place_n and_o this_o be_v the_o first_o opinion_n the_o second_o opinion_n touch_v the_o rest_n of_o the_o sabbath_n be_v flat_a contrary_n to_o the_o former_a namely_o that_o on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n after_o the_o public_a worship_n of_o god_n be_v end_v and_o the_o congregation_n dissolve_v

be_v refresh_v after_o labour_n second_o that_o this_o day_n shall_v be_v sanctify_v that_o be_v set_z apart_z to_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n these_o two_o first_o be_v therefore_o moral_a because_o they_o be_v express_o mention_v in_o the_o commandment_n touch_v the_o sabbath_n three_o that_o a_o seven_o day_n shall_v be_v sanctify_v to_o a_o holy_a rest_n and_o that_o this_o holy_a rest_n shall_v be_v observe_v in_o a_o seven_o day_n i_o say_v not_o in_o this_o or_o that_o seven_o day_n but_o in_o one_o of_o the_o seven_o now_o that_o this_o also_o be_v moral_a it_o appear_v by_o these_o reason_n first_o the_o sabbath_n of_o the_o seven_o day_n be_v institute_v and_o appoint_v by_o god_n in_o paradise_n before_o the_o fall_n of_o man_n and_o the_o reveal_n of_o christ_n yea_o even_o then_o when_o there_o be_v one_o condition_n of_o all_o man_n this_o be_v plain_o set_v down_o in_o gen._n 2._o as_o also_o in_o the_o four_o commandment_n and_o upon_o this_o ground_n it_o be_v manifest_a that_o a_o sabbath_n of_o a_o seven_o day_n can_v be_v a_o ceremony_n simple_o consider_v the_o ordination_n thereof_o be_v in_o time_n long_o before_o all_o ceremony_n if_o it_o be_v object_v that_o it_o be_v make_v a_o ceremony_n afterward_o i_o answer_v that_o the_o reason_n be_v naught_o for_o matrimony_n be_v ordain_v in_o paradise_n and_o afterward_o make_v ceremonial_a to_o signify_v the_o spiritual_a union_n between_o christ_n and_o his_o church_n and_o yet_o matrimony_n be_v perpetual_a and_o so_o be_v a_o sabbath_n of_o a_o seven_o day_n if_o it_o be_v again_o **_o allege_v that_o god_n do_v then_o keep_v a_o seven_o day_n in_o his_o own_o person_n and_o afterward_o enjoin_v it_o to_o man_n by_o his_o commandment_n i_o answer_v that_o the_o institution_n of_o the_o sabbath_n in_o paradise_n consist_v of_o two_o part_n blessing_n and_o sanctification_n and_o the_o meaning_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v that_o god_n do_v both_o bless_v it_o in_o regard_n of_o himself_o because_o he_o keep_v it_o in_o his_o own_o person_n and_o hallow_v it_o also_o in_o regard_n of_o man_n by_o command_v it_o to_o be_v sanctify_v and_o keep_v in_o performance_n of_o holy_a duty_n second_o the_o reason_n of_o the_o four_o commandment_n be_v general_a and_o the_o equity_n of_o they_o be_v perpetual_a and_o they_o have_v this_o end_n to_o urge_v the_o rest_n of_o a_o seven_o day_n let_v they_o be_v consider_v in_o particular_a the_o first_o in_o these_o word_n six_o day_n shall_v thou_o labour_v which_o some_o take_v to_o be_v a_o permission_n as_o if_o god_n shall_v have_v say_v thus_o if_o i_o permit_v thou_o six_o thou_o shall_v allow_v i_o a_o seven_o but_o they_o may_v be_v also_o take_v for_o a_o commandment_n injoin_v labour_n in_o the_o six_o day_n first_o because_o they_o be_v propound_v in_o command_a term_n second_o because_o they_o be_v a_o exposition_n of_o the_o curse_n lay_v upon_o adam_n thou_o shall_v eat_v thy_o bread_n in_o the_o sweat_n of_o thy_o face_n namely_o in_o the_o six_o day_n and_o three_o because_o idleness_n the_o spoil_n of_o mankind_n be_v there_o forbid_a this_o be_v so_o there_o must_v needs_o be_v a_o seven_o day_n not_o only_o of_o rest_n to_o ease_v they_o that_o labour_n in_o the_o six_o day_n but_o also_o of_o a_o holy_a rest_n that_o god_n may_v be_v worship_v in_o it_o the_o second_o reason_n be_v take_v from_o god_n example_n for_o in_o six_o day_n the_o lord_n make_v heaven_n and_o earth_n etc._n etc._n that_o which_o the_o lord_n himself_o have_v do_v in_o person_n the_o same_o must_v man_n do_v by_o his_o commandment_n but_o the_o lord_n himself_o in_o six_o day_n labour_v and_o rest_v the_o seven_o therefore_o man_n must_v do_v the_o same_o this_o reason_n make_v by_o god_n to_o the_o creature_n must_v stand_v in_o force_n till_o he_o reverse_v it_o which_o yet_o he_o have_v not_o do_v nor_o do_v if_o then_o these_o reason_n do_v not_o only_o enforce_v a_o rest_n and_o a_o holy_a rest_n but_o a_o rest_n on_o the_o seven_o day_n then_o this_o lest_o on_o the_o seven_o day_n be_v a_o part_n of_o the_o four_o commandment_n and_o consequent_o the_o church_n can_v not_o alter_v it_o from_o the_o sabbath_n day_n because_o they_o can_v not_o alter_v the_o substance_n of_o that_o commandment_n which_o be_v eternal_a ii_o reason_n the_o sabbath_n day_n in_o the_o new_a
