have_v a_o account_n how_o he_o spend_v his_o time_n namely_o in_o work_v at_o his_o trade_n so_o we_o have_v a_o account_n how_o he_o spend_v this_o time_n to_o wit_n the_o sabbath_n now_o if_o it_o be_v such_o a_o strong_a argument_n for_o the_o observation_n of_o the_o first_o day_n because_o paul_n preach_v upon_o it_o once_o what_o be_v this_o for_o the_o observation_n of_o the_o seven_o

so_o he_o do_v to_o condescend_v to_o the_o weakness_n of_o other_o and_o let_v it_o be_v show_v by_o the_o scripture_n that_o the_o apostle_n do_v countenance_n and_o own_o any_o shadow_n that_o be_v

though_o we_o have_v not_o a_o express_a word_n that_o the_o church_n keep_v it_o and_o indeed_o i_o think_v i_o may_v say_v in_o this_o case_n as_o the_o apostle_n say_v in_o another_o case_n that_o it_o will_v have_v be_v superflous_a for_o the_o apostle_n to_o have_v tell_v any_o people_n in_o their_o time_n that_o such_o or_o such_o a_o church_n keep_v the_o sabbath_n it_o be_v a_o truth_n not_o so_o much_o as_o question_v that_o we_o hear_v of_o but_o jew_n and_o gentile_n both_o observe_v it_o but_o now_o i_o cease_v answer_v objection_n have_v speak_v to_o those_o that_o be_v the_o
