and_o so_o in_o this_o prophecy_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n we_o find_v a_o jus_fw-la divinum_fw-la for_o the_o christian_a sabbath_n which_o may_v well_o go_v under_o its_o old_a and_o first_o

these_o way_n and_o in_o the_o use_n of_o these_o ordinance_n which_o he_o have_v command_v so_o under_o the_o law_n the_o second_o command_n do_v bind_v man_n to_o observe_v the_o ordinance_n of_o

but_o the_o second_o commandment_n remain_v the_o same_o only_o have_v different_a respect_n so_o the_o four_o from_o the_o beginning_n and_o under_o the_o law_n do_v oblige_v to_o the_o observe_v
