to_o rest_v but_o that_o even_o to_o rest_v from_o labour_n though_o it_o be_v a_o mere_a worldly_a thing_n in_o it_o own_o nature_n yet_o be_v a_o singular_a part_n of_o our_o obedience_n to_o god_n upon_o that_o day_n when_o it_o be_v so_o many_o time_n require_v so_o often_o urge_v and_o as_o it_o be_v near_o press_v upon_o we_o with_o word_n double_v and_o tripled_a yea_o and_o that_o by_o god_n himself_o who_o be_v not_o flow_v with_o word_n in_o a_o barren_a cause_n but_o show_v unto_o we_o the_o weightiness_n of_o his_o commandment_n by_o the_o force_n of_o his_o word_n and_o the_o severity_n of_o his_o law_n by_o his_o most_o significant_a and_o pathetical_a speech_n the_o reason_n why_o the_o lord_n will_v have_v man_n to_o rest_n upon_o this_o day_n be_v manifold_a worship_n the_o chief_a cause_n of_o rest_v be_v that_o we_o may_v whole_o attend_v upon_o god_n worship_n the_o first_o and_o principal_n be_v that_o which_o be_v from_o the_o beginning_n that_o man_n may_v be_v the_o more_o fit_a to_o sanctify_v it_o in_o the_o holy_a service_n of_o god_n which_o because_o they_o can_v not_o do_v with_o all_o the_o power_n of_o their_o soul_n and_o body_n as_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n require_v so_o long_o as_o they_o be_v about_o their_o worldly_a business_n because_o they_o must_v needs_o take_v up_o their_o wit_n and_o their_o will_n the_o understanding_n and_o the_o heart_n either_o in_o whole_a or_o in_o part_n so_o long_o as_o they_o be_v conversant_a in_o they_o therefore_o that_o we_o may_v so_o do_v as_o he_o require_v he_o will_v have_v we_o rest_v from_o that_o which_o may_v hinder_v we_o from_o it_o and_o because_o the_o affair_n of_o this_o world_n and_o his_o worship_n be_v two_o distinct_a thing_n he_o will_v have_v we_o rest_v from_o the_o one_o that_o we_o may_v be_v occupy_v in_o the_o other_o thus_o speak_v s._n augustine_n 251._o august_n de_fw-fr temp_n serm_n 251._o sciendum_fw-la est_fw-la fratres_fw-la

shall_v rest_v especial_o on_o the_o lord_n day_n that_o cease_v from_o all_o worldly_a business_n we_o may_v be_v more_o prompt_a and_o ready_a for_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n when_o we_o shall_v have_v no_o let_v to_o hinder_v we_o from_o it_o for_o as_o we_o have_v see_v already_o our_o nature_n be_v not_o only_o ●o_o now_o but_o be_v so_o in_o adam_n that_o he_o can_v not_o do_v both_o

call_v it_o a_o sabbath_n day_n that_o be_v a_o day_n of_o rest_n and_o this_o reason_n as_o it_o do_v straight_o bind_v adam_n to_o rest_v upon_o it_o so_o do_v it_o all_o his_o posterity_n much_o more_o afterward_o there_o be_v other_o cause_v adjoin_v unto_o this_o which_o make_v this_o necessity_n of_o rest_v a_o great_a deal_n strong_a strength_n a_o less_o principal_a cause_n be_v the_o retain_v of_o our_o bodily_a strength_n and_o by_o name_n for_o because_o that_o through_o sin_n the_o body_n of_o man_n be_v weaken_v all_o the_o natural_a humour_n of_o it_o be_v corrupt_v and_o have_v lose_v the_o first_o vigour_n and_o strength_n of_o it_o and_o therefore_o be_v now_o subject_a to_o pain_n to_o wearisomnes_n to_o sickness_n and_o to_o death_n and_o so_o stand_v in_o need_n of_o ease_n and_o crave_v rest_n as_o that_o without_o the_o which_o it_o can_v long_o continue_v therefore_o in_o respect_n of_o this_o man_n have_v need_v to_o rest_v so_o much_o the_o more_o that_o by_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o seven_o day_n they_o be_v refesh_v may_v be_v more_o enable_v even_o in_o the_o strength_n of_o their_o body_n to_o do_v the_o work_n of_o their_o call_n cheerful_o adam_n and_o his_o posterity_n if_o they_o have_v continue_v in_o their_o first_o estate_n shall_v have_v labour_v upon_o the_o six_o day_n but_o their_o labour_n shall_v have_v be_v no_o labour_n unto_o they_o i_o mean_v they_o shall_v not_o have_v labour_v with_o wearisomnes_n and_o with_o pain_n for_o these_o be_v the_o punishment_n of_o sin_n and_o the_o forerunner_n of_o death_n threaten_v a_o

beside_o that_o labour_n be_v through_o god_n just_a punishment_n become_v so_o laboursome_a unto_o we_o and_o work_n be_v so_o full_a of_o pain_n and_o travail_n make_v weary_a according_a as_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o sweat_n of_o thy_o face_n thou_o shall_v eat_v bread_n 3.19_o gen._n 3.19_o then_o we_o see_v there_o be_v great_a cause_n we_o shall_v rest_v on_o this_o day_n and_o we_o be_v as_o it_o be_v with_o a_o double_a chain_n bind_v unto_o it_o therefore_o in_o th●_n 5_o of_o deut._n where_o moses_n repeat_v the_o law_n show_v h●●_n great_a cause_n there_o be_v why_o they_o shall_v rest_v upon_o the_o sabbath_n he_o allege_v this_o in_o the_o end_n of_o the_o 14._o verse_n that_o thy_o manseruant_n and_o thy_o maid_n may_v rest_v as_o well_o as_o thou_o speak_v of_o

to_o the_o jew_n by_o the_o hand_n of_o moses_n as_o in_o the_o observation_n of_o it_o they_o have_v many_o ceremony_n proper_a to_o themselves_o so_o in_o the_o end_n and_o cause_n of_o this_o rest_n there_o be_v something_o join_v unto_o it_o which_o bind_v they_o unto_o it_o most_o straight_o and_o yet_o appertain_v to_o no_o other_o people_n but_o they_o and_o though_o all_o the_o

and_o that_o the_o lord_n thy_o god_n bring_v thou_o out_o thence_o by_o a_o mighty_a hand_n and_o stretch_v out_o arm_n therefore_o the_o lord_n thy_o god_n command_v thou_o to_o observe_v the_o

in_o which_o place_n he_o make_v the_o day_n of_o rest_n to_o be_v a_o memorial_n to_o the_o jew_n of_o their_o rest_v from_o their_o heavy_a burden_n and_o intolerable_a labour_n in_o the_o land_n of_o egypt_n when_o the_o lord_n rid_v they_o out_o of_o the_o cruel_a hand_n of_o pharaoh_n and_o so_o because_o that_o benefit_n be_v a_o pledge_n unto_o they_o of_o their_o eternal_a delivery_n
