well_o as_o ancient_o unto_o jews_n yea_o our_o saviour_n testify_v in_o a_o other_o place_n that_o it_o be_v more_o easy_a for_o heaven_n and_o earth_n to_o pass_v away_o than_o that_o one_o title_n

of_o jesus_n and_o of_o remission_n of_o sin_n and_o justification_n by_o faith_n in_o christ_n for_o these_o he_o stand_v a_o main_a but_o as_o for_o the_o la_o and_o justification_n by_o the_o

this_o his_o doctrine_n to_o the_o subvertion_n of_o the_o la_o he_o wise_o prevent_v it_o by_o a_o god_n forbid_v as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v do_v you_o think_v that_o because_o i_o deny_v justification_n by_o the_o law_n and_o affirm_v it_o to_o be_v by_o faith_n that_o i_o intend_v thereby_o to_o abolish_v the_o law_n utter_o no_o god_n forbid_v for_o i_o establish_v the_o law_n the_o law_n must_v stand_v still_o in_o force_n etc._n etc._n that_o be_v for_o observation_n though_o not_o for_o justification_n for_o paul_n must_v be_v understand_v so_o to_o abolish_v the_o la_o in_o some_o sense_n as_o for_o all_o that_o he_o ratifi_v the_o la_o in_o another_o sense_n hereby_o we_o see_v then_o that_o the_o doctrine_n of_o faith_n and_o justification_n by_o faith_n do_v not_o abolish_v the_o law_n yea_o so_o much_o the_o apostle_n say_v express_o do_v we_o then_o say_v he_o make_v the_o law_n of_o none_o effect_v through_o faith_n whence_o i_o thus_o argue_v that_o if_o faith_n do_v not_o make_v void_a the_o law_n what_o shall_v make_v it_o void_a for_o our_o antinomian_o say_v that_o it_o be_v faith_n and_o be_v in_o christ_n that_o free_v we_o from_o the_o law_n the_o law_n say_v they_o be_v a_o schoolmaster_n to_o bring_v we_o unto_o christ_n and_o be_v in_o christ_n once_o which_o be_v by_o faith_n than_o we_o be_v no_o long_o under_o this_o schoolmaster_n of_o the_o law_n in_o any_o respect_n we_o be_v free_v from_o the_o law_n whole_o and_o altogether_o but_o the_o clean_a contrary_a s._n paul_n affirm_v here_o namely_o that_o faith_n do_v not_o abolish_v the_o la_o that_o be_v in_o all_o respect_n furthermore_o if_o faith_n do_v not_o abolish_v the_o law_n than_o the_o faithful_a man_n be_v not_o free_v from_o the_o la_o so_o they_o when_o the_o apostle_n say_v that_o he_o establish_v the_o la_o it_o follow_v that_o he_o establish_v it_o to_o the_o faithful_a yea_o they_o be_v the_o person_n of_o who_o paul_n speak_v as_o you_o may_v

and_o that_o he_o do_v by_o this_o reason_n because_o in_o so_o do_v the_o la_o shall_v be_v fulfil_v now_o why_o shall_v the_o apostle_n move_v the_o galatian_n to_o the_o duty_n of_o love_n because_o of_o or_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o la_o if_o the_o la_o do_v not_o at_o all_o appertain_v to_o these_o believe_a galatian_n furthermore_o the_o apostle_n press_v the_o la_o here_o upon_o

since_o they_o to_o who_o the_o apostle_n speak_v have_v abstain_v &_o be_v call_v unto_o a_o liberty_n by_o christ_n it_o be_v more_o than_o manifest_a that_o they_o be_v believer_n to_o who_o he_o

the_o believer_n and_o he_o speak_v unto_o they_o that_o do_v wait_v for_o the_o hope_n of_o righteousness_n by_o faith_n v._o 5._o and_o who_o be_v they_o but_o believer_n and_o he_o speak_v unto_o

thing_n therein_o call_v it_o a_o accident_n or_o a_o circumstance_n of_o time_n or_o what_o else_o diminuty_o you_o will_v he_o do_v ratify_v this_o little_a thing_n also_o the_o seven_o day_n

a_o title_n of_o a_o letter_n as_o a_o prick_n be_v upon_o the_o letter_n ay_o in_o no_o wise_a to_o depart_v from_o the_o law_n hereby_o he_o ratify_v the_o very_a lest_o thing_n command_v in_o the_o

&_o then_o remember_v that_o he_o will_v never_o have_v here_o ratify_v the_o law_n so_o universal_o unto_o a_o very_a jot_n and_o title_n of_o it_o this_o be_v plain_a if_o we_o look_v but_o upon_o the_o very_a next_o verse_n vers_n 19_o whosoever_o therefore_o shall_v break_v one_o of_o these_o least_o commandment_n and_o teach_v man_n so_o he_o shall_v be_v call_v the_o least_o in_o the_o

not_o only_o the_o least_o common_a but_o also_o the_o least_o branch_n of_o every_o commandment_n for_o he_o ratify_v not_o only_o the_o 6_o come_v touch_v murder_n but_o also_o the_o least_o thing_n

firm_o and_o secur_o 1._o one_o answer_n bring_v against_o this_o argument_n be_v this_o that_o by_o the_o word_n law_n may_v be_v understod_a both_o the_o moral_a and_o ceremonial_a law_n but_o this_o be_v a_o unwarrantable_a enlargement_n of_o the_o word_n law_n for_o it_o be_v a_o rule_n that_o general_a word_n must_v be_v restrain_v unto_o the_o subject_a matter_n in_o hand_n as_o in_o heb._n 7.12_o if_o by_o the_o word_n law_n there_o we_o shall_v understand_v both_o moral_a and_o ceremonial_a law_n we_o shall_v make_v foul_a work_n wherefore_o as_o the_o word_n law_n in_o heb._n 7.12_o be_v to_o be_v rastain_v unto_o the_o leviticall_a ceremonial_a law_n according_a to_o the_o matter_n there_o speak_v of_o so_o must_v we_o by_o the_o word_n law_n in_o mat._n 5.18_o understand_v only_o the_o moral_a law_n according_a to_o the_o matter_n here_o speak_v of_o for_o as_o you_o may_v see_v plain_o by_o the_o context_n our_o saviour_n speak_v of_o the_o moral_a law_n for_o our_o saviour_n have_v ratify_v the_o law_n in_o general_a in_o v._o 18.19_o than_o he_o descend_v unto_o particular_n givinge_v example_n in_o the_o 6_o come_v touch_v murder_n as_o in_o v._o

the_o ceremonial_a law_n can_v be_v here_o mean_v for_o christ_n say_v but_o in_o the_o verse_n a_o forego_v that_o he_o come_v not_o to_o destroy_v the_o law_n or_o the_o prophet_n which_o phrase_n

law_n unto_o the_o world_n end_n in_o mat._n 5.18_o which_o be_v contrary_a unto_o all_o scripture_n and_o therefore_o christ_n speak_v nothing_o of_o the_o ceremonial_a law_n in_o this_o place_n 3._o since_o christ_n speak_v here_o of_o the_o duration_n &_o continuance_n of_o the_o law_n for_o ever_o it_o be_v absurd_a to_o think_v that_o in_o this_o case_n he_o will_v join_v the_o moral_a and_o the_o ceremonial_a law_n together_o as_o if_o they_o be_v both_o of_o a_o like_a perpetuity_n &_o last_a nature_n and_o therefore_o only_a the_o moral_a law_n be_v here_o mean_v 4._o can_v it_o be_v think_v that_o christ_n shall_v make_v here_o in_o v._o 17._o a_o apology_n for_o the_o ceremonial_a law_n when_o elsewhere_o he_o preach_v against_o it_o joh._n 4.21_o beside_o since_o christ_n

for_o they_o be_v so_o requisite_a and_o needful_a that_o all_o man_n will_v grante_v i_o that_o it_o be_v meet_v to_o have_v a_o day_n set_v a_o part_n for_o the_o public_a worship_n of_o god_n &_o the_o edification_n of_o the_o church_n of_o god_n to_o omit_v what_o else_o may_v be_v say_v the_o necessity_n of_o a_o sabbath_n day_n appear_v in_o this_o that_o our_o church_n do_v now_o

because_o it_o be_v a_o thing_n of_o good_a report_n approve_a &_o allow_v of_o by_o all_o christian_a church_n now_o the_o apostle_n call_v upon_o we_o to_o follow_v those_o thing_n which_o be_v of_o good_a report_n phil._n 4.8_o &_o those_o thing_n therefore_o which_o all_o christian_a people_n approve_v and_o allow_v of_o be_v meet_v to_o be_v have_v in_o use_n papist_n they_o allow_v of_o rest_v from_o labour_n and_o the_o public_a worship_n of_o god_n constant_o upon_o one_o day_n of_o every_o seven_o lutheran_n do_v the_o like_a and_o anabaptist_n how_o ever_o they_o keep_v no_o

unto_o god_n last_o all_o protestant_n do_v allow_v and_o approve_v of_o one_o day_n in_o seven_o as_o fit_a to_o rest_v in_o from_o labour_n and_o to_o worship_n god_n public_o so_o here_o be_v a_o cloud_n of_o witeness_n hold_v it_o meet_v to_o keep_v a_o sabbath_n day_n and_o a_o thing_n of_o good_a report_n if_o we_o shall_v ascend_v unto_o the_o primitive_a church_n who_o live_v next_o after_o the_o apostle_n we_o shall_v find_v that_o they_o hold_v it_o meet_v to_o keep_v one_o day_n in_o 7_o and_o sometime_o more_o for_o the_o service_n of_o god_n and_o to_o rest_v from_o labour_n thus_o we_o have_v a_o general_a and_o joint_a consent_n of_o all_o church_n both_o now_o live_v and_o from_o the_o apostle_n time_n that_o it_o be_v a_o thing_n meet_v to_o rest_n and_o serve_v god_n public_o one_o day_n in_o a_o week_n and_o so_o we_o have_v prove_v this_o point_n namely_o that_o it_o be_v meet_v &_o convenient_a to_o keep_v a_o sabbath_n day_n indefinite_o one_o in_o 7_o day_n now_o i_o come_v to_o prove_v that_o of_o all_o the_o day_n of_o the_o week_n the_o seven_o day_n or_o saturday_n be_v the_o most_o fit_a day_n my_o first_o reason_n be_v because_o god_n almighty_a rest_v rather_o upon_o the_o saturday_n then_o upon_o any_o other_o day_n genes_n 2.3_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v meet_v we_o shall_v imitate_v such_o a_o precedent_n be_v a_o man_n to_o make_v his_o choice_n on_o which_o day_n of_o the_o week_n to_o rest_n from_o labour_n and_o to_o refresh_v himself_o i_o think_v he_o can_v not_o possible_o find_v a_o more_o fit_a day_n to_o rest_n in_o then_o on_o that_o day_n wherein_o god_n almighty_n rest_v my_o second_o reason_n be_v take_v from_o this_o that_o a_o man_n may_v doubt_v whither_o the_o old_a sabbath_n day_n be_v abolish_v or_o not_o and_o if_o it_o be_v disputable_a and_o
day_n whereon_o god_n rest_v &_o profane_v the_o saturday_n sabbath_n and_o give_v god_n the_o sunday_n sabbath_n as_o we_o do_v now_o for_o if_o they_o have_v reckon_v monday_n for_o the_o first_o day_n than_o sunday_n after_o will_v have_v be_v the_o seven_o day_n final_o whereas_o they_o say_v that_o the_o four_o come_v have_v not_o declare_v unto_o we_o which_o 6_o day_n we_o shall_v labour_v in_o this_o be_v false_a for_o god_n have_v plain_o discover_v it_o in_o his_o four_o come_v which_o be_v the_o 6_o day_n &_o that_o these_o way_n 1._o they_o be_v those_o 6_o day_n we_o shall_v labour_v in_o which_o god_n himself_o labour_v or_o wrought_v in_o to_o wit_n the_o first_o 6_o day_n from_o the_o creation_n as_o you_o may_v see_v by_o the_o reason_n add_v to_o the_o come_v for_o in_o 6_o day_n the_o lord_n make_v the_o heaven_n and_o the_o earth_n etc._n etc._n exod._n 20.11_o so_o god_n set_v himself_o as_o a_o pattern_n unto_o we_o we_o be_v to_o follow_v his_o ensample_n which_o be_v to_o work_v on_o those_o 6_o day_n wherein_o god_n himself_o wrought_v which_o point_n we_o have_v further_o prove_v in_o the_o exposition_n of_o this_o part_n of_o the_o four_o come_v former_o 2._o god_n have_v reveal_v it_o in_o his_o four_o come_v by_o command_v we_o to_o sanctify_v the_o sabbath_n day_n now_o the_o sabbath_n day_n be_v on_o the_o seven_o day_n on_o our_o saturday_n wherefore_o see_v we_o know_v which_o day_n be_v the_o rest_a day_n thereby_o we_o know_v which_o be_v the_o labour_a day_n for_o all_o the_o 6_o day_n which_o go_v before_o the_o sabbath_n day_n rest_v day_n or_o saturday_n those_o be_v the_o 6_o work_a day_n so_o you_o see_v it_o be_v but_o a_o idle_a cavil_n to_o raise_v doubt_n about_o the_o 6_o day_n which_o god_n appoint_v out_o for_o labour_n 3._o if_o we_o will_v not_o imitate_v god_n labour_v those_o very_a 6_o day_n wherein_o god_n wrought_v than_o we_o fale_v into_o these_o absurdety_n 1._o that_o as_o they_o begin_v &_o make_v monday_n the_o first_o so_o may_v i_o begin_v at_o tuesday_n for_o the_o first_o or_o thursday_n or_o friday_n or_o skip_v over_o 100_o or_o 10●0_n day_n before_o i_o set_v a_o first_o day_n and_o so_o god_n shall_v have_v a_o sabbath_n but_o once_o in_o a_o 100_o or_o 1000_o day_n 2._o to_o say_v the_o four_o come_v have_v not_o declare_v unto_o we_o which_o 6_o day_n we_o shall_v labour_v in_o since_o it_o be_v manifest_a by_o the_o constant_a practice_n of_o the_o church_n of_o the_o jew_n one_o may_v as_o well_o say_v that_o the_o four_o come_v have_v not_o declare_v by_o the_o word_n day_n whither_o we_o must_v keep_v a_o natural_a day_n or_o a_o artificial_a day_n or_o the_o day_n of_o grace_n which_o be_v a_o day_n conci_v of_o many_o year_n as_o we_o must_v have_v recourse_n to_o the_o practice_n of_o the_o jew_n for_o the_o one_o so_o for_o the_o other_o and_o thus_o much_o for_o their_o first_o evasion_n an_o other_o evasion_n they_o have_v &_o it_o be_v this_o that_o these_o word_n in_o the_o four_o come_v six_o day_n thou_o shall_v labour_v they_o be_v not_o a_o commandment_n but_o a_o permission_n as_o if_o the_o lord_n have_v say_v six_o day_n may_v thou_o labour_v if_o thou_o will_v hereunto_o i_o reply_v 1._o that_o these_o word_n be_v a_o express_a commandment_n as_o well_o as_o any_o other_o for_o they_o be_v deliver_v in_o command_a term_n as_o well_o as_o any_o other_o this_o point_n i_o have_v former_o prove_v in_o the_o exposition_n of_o these_o word_n in_o the_o four_o come_v therefore_o here_o i_o omit_v to_o repeat_v it_o 2._o admit_v that_o these_o word_n be_v but_o a_o permission_n yet_o so_o they_o will_v make_v enough_o for_o my_o purpose_n &_o that_o thus_o for_o if_o god_n do_v in_o his_o four_o come_v permit_v we_o and_o give_v we_o leave_v to_o work_v in_o those_o 6_o day_n wherein_o himself_o wrought_v at_o the_o creation_n then_o can_v any_o wise_a man_n think_v that_o god_n will_v in_o the_o very_a same_o commandment_n forbid_v we_o to_o labour_v in_o some_o one_o of_o those_o 6_o day_n unlese_v you_o will_v think_v that_o god_n permit_v we_o to_o work_v upon_o a_o day_n and_o revoke_v his_o permission_n again_o and_o all_o under_o one_o breath_n wherefore_o see_v that_o god_n give_v we_o leave_v to_o work_v by_o his_o four_o come_v upon_o all_o those_o 6_o day_n which_o go_v before_o the_o jew_n sabbath_n day_n &_o our_o saturday_n the_o seven_o day_n therefore_o if_o we_o will_v have_v any_o sabbath_n day_n from_o the_o four_o come_v we_o must_v betake_v we_o to_o the_o seven_o day_n our_o saturday_n the_o jew_n sabbath_n day_n &_o that_o because_o god_n have_v permit_v we_o to_o work_v upon_o any_o day_n save_o the_o saturday_n thus_o much_o for_o my_o four_o argument_n argum_fw-la v._o my_o 5_o argument_n to_o prove_v that_o the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n be_v still_o in_o force_n be_v because_o to_o sanctify_v the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n be_v a_o part_n of_o the_o four_o come_v or_o a_o part_n of_o the_o decalogue_n and_o 10_o commandment_n and_o thus_o it_o may_v be_v frame_v every_o part_n of_o the_o law_n be_v still_o in_o force_n but_o to_o sanctify_v the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n be_v a_o part_n of_o the_o law_n therefore_o to_o sanctify_v the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n be_v still_o enforce_v i_o have_v purposely_o frame_v this_o argument_n for_o the_o sake_n of_o those_o who_o do_v so_o dote_v upon_o this_o fiction_n that_o the_o time_n in_o the_o four_o come_v it_o be_v but_o a_o circumstance_n and_o a_o accident_n and_o i_o can_v tell_v what_o other_o trivall_a thing_n they_o make_v of_o it_o but_o say_v they_o if_o it_o can_v be_v once_o prove_v unto_o we_o that_o this_o time_n of_o the_o seven_o day_n be_v a_o part_n of_o the_o law_n or_o of_o the_o four_o come_v then_o will_v we_o soon_o embrace_v it_o well_o they_o shall_v see_v it_o therefore_o prove_v to_o be_v a_o part_n of_o the_o law_n of_o god_n for_o the_o major_n or_o first_o proposition_n i_o thus_o prove_v it_o every_o part_n of_o the_o law_n be_v still_o in_o force_n because_o the_o law_n be_v still_o in_o force_n for_o if_o the_o law_n be_v

themselves_o be_v my_o witness_n that_o the_o time_n &_o day_n be_v a_o part_n of_o the_o law_n and_o also_o a_o part_n so_o necessary_a as_o they_o hold_v the_o law_n unperfect_a until_o they_o

the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n be_v still_o in_o force_n be_v because_o it_o be_v the_o seven_o day_n beside_o which_o there_o be_v no_o seven_o day_n &_o thus_o i_o frame_v it_o that_o day_n which_o be_v a_o seven_o day_n beside_o the_o which_o there_o be_v no_o seven_o day_n that_o day_n must_v be_v our_o sabbath_n day_n but_o saturday_n the_o seven_o day_n be_v a_o seven_o day_n beside_o which_o there_o be_v no_o seven_o day_n therefore_o saturday_n the_o seven_o day_n must_v be_v our_o sabbath_n day_n for_o proof_n of_o the_o mayor_n or_o first_o proposition_n many_o divine_n be_v of_o judgement_n that_o the_o seven_o part_n of_o time_n be_v god_n &_o to_o be_v consecrate_v to_o his_o worship_n &_o service_n as_o moral_n wherefore_o all_o such_o divine_n must_v approve_v of_o

to_o be_v understod_a of_o a_o seven_o day_n and_o so_o they_o will_v have_v a_o seven_o day_n to_o be_v in_o force_n though_o not_o the_o seven_o day_n wherefore_o since_o they_o hold_v a_o seven_o

much_o for_o proof_n of_o the_o major_a i_o come_v now_o unto_o the_o proof_n of_o the_o minor_a or_o second_o proposition_n to_o wit_n that_o saturday_n the_o seven_o day_n be_v a_o seven_o day_n

that_o not_o only_o towards_o mankind_n in_o general_a but_o also_o unto_o mercy_n both_o unto_o man_n &_o beast_n and_o thus_o i_o argue_v that_o which_o be_v express_o command_v in_o the_o moral_a

as_o for_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o major_n i_o suppose_v none_o will_v deny_v it_o for_o it_o be_v a_o rule_n in_o expound_v the_o commandment_n that_o not_o only_o the_o thing_n express_v in_o the_o

to_o he_o there_o be_v a_o necessity_n to_o neglect_v the_o sabbath_n day_n namely_o the_o necessity_n of_o want_n poverty_n &_o hunger_n now_o lest_o any_o man_n shall_v marvel_v that_o i_o will_v

nor_o in_o any_o christian_a church_n beside_o in_o its_o integrity_n and_o perfection_n but_o only_o lame_o and_o maim_o if_o until_o a_o reformation_n the_o whole_a four_o commandment_n be_v utter_o and_o whole_o abolish_v both_o root_n and_o branch_n if_o until_o a_o reformation_n be_v make_v the_o land_n and_o kingdom_n wherein_o we_o live_v with_o all_o other_o christian_a church_n do_v live_v in_o the_o weekly_a profanation_n of_o the_o lord_n sabbath_n and_o transgression_n of_o the_o four_o commandment_n if_o i_o shall_v show_v unto_o you_o that_o until_o a_o reformation_n be_v make_v we_o sanctify_v a_o common_a and_o profane_a day_n and_o profane_v a_o sanctify_a and_o holy_a day_n and_o god_n worship_n will_v languish_v and_o profaneness_n invade_v we_o and_o that_o a_o romish_a

unto_o you_o that_o until_o a_o reformation_n the_o sin_n of_o idolatry_n be_v commit_v by_o many_o in_o the_o land_n if_o i_o say_v i_o shall_v make_v these_o thing_n plain_o appear_v unto_o you_o

first_o of_o these_o there_o be_v not_o many_o verse_n in_o the_o decalogue_n or_o 10_o commandment_n and_o yet_o there_o be_v no_o less_o than_o four_o whole_a verse_n in_o the_o 10_o commandment_n which_o be_v as_o so_o many_o verse_n rend_v out_o of_o the_o scripture_n or_o blot_v out_o of_o the_o book_n of_o god_n or_o stand_v but_o for_o so_o many_o cipher_n and_o they_o be_v these_o verse_n the_o 8_o &_o verse_n the_o 9th_o and_o verse_n the_o 10_o and_o verse_n the_o 11_o of_o the_o xx_o chapter_n of_o exodus_fw-la for_o the_o sabbath_n day_n there_o specify_v we_o have_v not_o and_o

which_o god_n bless_a and_o sanctify_a we_o have_v not_o these_o thing_n we_o have_v more_o large_o prove_v in_o the_o former_a part_n of_o this_o book_n &_o therefore_o a_o touch_n of_o they_o here_o
