which_o he_o have_v make_v and_o rest_v from_o they_o this_o be_v humane_a corrupt_a presumption_n q._n 12._o but_o some_o think_v the_o sabbath_n be_v first_o institute_v in_o the_o wilderness_n when_o they_o be_v forbid_v to_o gather_v manna_n a._n it_o be_v not_o there_o mention_v as_o new_o institute_v and_o it_o be_v mention_v gen._n 2._o 2_o 3._o and_o then_o institute_v with_o the_o
