A78514 The seventh-day Sabbath· Or a brief tract on the IV. Commandment. Wherein is discovered the cause of all our controversies about the Sabbath-day, and the meanes of reconciling them. More particularly is shewed 1. That the seventh day from the creation, which was the day of Gods rest, was not the seventh day which God in this law commanded his people to keep holy; neither was it such a kinde of day as was the Jewes Sabbath-day. 2. That the seventh day in this law commanded to be kept holy, is the seventh day of the week, viz. the day following the six dayes of labour with all people. 3. That Sunday is with Christians as truly the Sabbath-day, as was Saterday with the Jewes. / By Thomas Chafie parson of Nutshelling. Chafie, Thomas. 1652 (1652) Wing C1791; Thomason E670_3; ESTC R207035 89,318 121

that_o they_o have_v to_o do_v in_o six_o day_n and_o rest_n on_o the_o seven_o day_n according_a to_o god_n example_n now_o they_o must_v rest_v on_o the_o first_o day_n and_o work_v the_o six_o

believe_v that_o the_o apostle_n of_o christ_n by_o the_o appointment_n of_o our_o saviour_n change_v the_o old_a sabbath_n so_o they_o call_v the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n to_o the_o sabbath_n of_o

the_o jew_n saterday-sabbath_n be_v ceremonial_a and_o abrogate_a do_v thence_o hold_v and_o maintain_v the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n to_o be_v abrogate_a also_o and_o for_o that_o they_o know_v not_o

of_o the_o seventh-day-sabbath_n will_v quick_o be_v of_o another_o mind_n and_o acknowledge_v that_o as_o the_o jew_n observe_v that_o day_n for_o their_o sabbath_n which_o in_o this_o law_n be_v
