certain_a query_n propose_v by_o the_o king_n to_o the_o lord_n and_o commons_o commissioner_n from_o the_o honourable_a house_n of_o parliament_n attend_v his_o majesty_n at_o holdenby_n the_o 23_o of_o this_o instant_a april_n 1647._o touch_v the_o celebration_n of_o the_o feast_n of_o easter_n with_o a_o answer_n thereunto_o give_v and_o present_v to_o his_o majesty_n by_o sir_n james_n harrington_n knight_n and_o baronet_n a_o commissioner_n there_o london_n print_v for_o john_n giles_n april_n 27._o 1647._o i_o desire_v to_o be_v resolve_v of_o this_o question_n why_o the_o new_a reformer_n discharge_v the_o keep_n of_o easter_n the_o reason_n for_o this_o query_n be_v i_o conceive_v the_o celebration_n of_o this_o feast_n be_v institute_v by_o the_o same_o authority_n which_o change_v the_o jewish_a sabbath_n into_o the_o lord_n day_n or_o sunday_n for_o it_o will_v not_o be_v find_v in_o scripture_n where_o saturday_n be_v discharge_v to_o be_v keep_v or_o turn_v into_o the_o sunday_n wherefore_o it_o must_v be_v the_o church_n authority_n that_o change_v the_o one_o and_o institute_v the_o other_o therefore_o my_o opinion_n be_v that_o those_o who_o will_v not_o keep_v this_o feast_n may_v as_o well_o return_v to_o the_o observation_n of_o saturday_n and_o refuse_v the_o weekly_a sunday_n when_o anybody_o can_v show_v i_o that_o herein_o i_o be_o in_o a_o error_n i_o shall_v not_o be_v ashamed_a to_o confess_v and_o amend_v it_o tell_v when_o you_o know_v my_o mind_n c._n rex_fw-la may_v it_o please_v your_o majesty_n i_o can_v but_o from_o the_o bless_a example_n of_o our_o saviour_n who_o be_v in_o his_o age_n a_o new_a reformer_n of_o old_a error_n viz._n the_o false_a gloss_n of_o the_o scribe_n and_o pharise_n mat._n 5._o 20._o but_o account_v all_o such_o reformer_n in_o our_o time_n bless_v also_o but_o for_o the_o keep_n of_o easter_n although_o i_o know_v not_o any_o ordinance_n of_o parliament_n discharge_v it_o yet_o with_o submission_n to_o better_a judgement_n i_o in_o all_o dutifulness_n conceive_v that_o your_o majesty_n reason_n upon_o which_o your_o queery_n be_v build_v have_v a_o great_a mistake_n even_o in_o the_o foundation_n of_o it_o you_o be_v please_v to_o lay_v this_o for_o a_o ground_n that_o the_o change_n of_o the_o sabbath_n and_o the_o institution_n of_o easter_n be_v by_o one_o and_o the_o same_o equal_a authority_n and_o ecclesiastical_a decree_n which_o with_o your_o majesty_n favour_n i_o can_v yield_v to_o for_o i_o humble_o conceive_v that_o the_o change_n of_o the_o jewish_a sabbath_n the_o commemoration_n of_o the_o work_n of_o the_o creation_n unto_o the_o lord_n day_n the_o remembrance_n of_o that_o greaterwork_n the_o work_n of_o redemption_n finish_v upon_o this_o day_n of_o the_o lord_n resurrection_n be_v by_o no_o less_o than_o by_o divine_a authority_n because_o the_o keep_n of_o one_o day_n in_o seven_o as_o a_o sabbath_n to_o god_n be_v not_o only_o sanctify_v and_o set_v a_o part_n by_o god_n own_o example_n in_o the_o creation_n gen._n 2._o ver._n 3._o and_o according_o observe_v by_o the_o israelite_n many_o week_n before_o the_o law_n be_v give_v ex._n 16._o ver._n 23._o but_o be_v one_o of_o the_o ten_o commandment_n deliver_v by_o god_n own_o voice_n on_o mount_n sinai_n write_v by_o his_o own_o finger_n in_o table_n of_o stone_n command_v by_o himself_o to_o be_v put_v into_o the_o ark_n of_o the_o covenant_n which_o decalogue_n or_o ten_o commandment_n be_v also_o by_o our_o bless_a saviour_n in_o his_o sermon_n upon_o the_o mount_n declare_v to_o be_v the_o rule_n of_o his_o people_n moral_a obedience_n unto_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n mat._n 5._o 17._o and_o in_o the_o follow_a part_n of_o that_o sermon_n wherein_o he_o vindicate_v the_o law_n from_o the_o corrupt_a gloss_n of_o the_o scribe_n and_o pharise_n he_o instance_v only_o in_o moral_a duty_n and_o moral_a law_n from_o all_o which_o divine_n general_o infer_v that_o the_o decalogue_n be_v to_o continue_v in_o force_n unto_o the_o world_n end_n and_o therefore_o it_o seem_v most_o apparent_a that_o no_o authority_n that_o be_v inferior_a to_o that_o which_o appoint_v the_o seven_o day_n from_o the_o creation_n to_o be_v the_o sabbath_n can_v abrogate_v that_o day_n and_o appoint_v another_o day_n to_o be_v use_v instead_o of_o it_o because_o neither_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n nor_o the_o holy_a scripture_n do_v anywhere_o give_v the_o least_o intimation_n that_o any_o human_a power_n may_v change_v any_o of_o the_o commandment_n of_o god_n and_o indeed_o so_o many_o absurdity_n will_v follow_v upon_o such_o a_o assertion_n that_o i_o be_o confident_a your_o majejesty_n will_v not_o own_v it_o it_o remain_v therefore_o that_o the_o change_n of_o the_o day_n must_v needs_o be_v the_o work_n of_o christ_n himself_o or_o of_o his_o apostle_n who_o be_v divine_o inspire_v act_n 15._o 21._o and_o to_o prove_v that_o it_o be_v so_o viz._n that_o by_o divine_a institution_n the_o lord_n day_n now_o succeed_v in_o the_o room_n of_o the_o jewish_a sabbath_n i_o shall_v use_v no_o other_o argument_n than_o those_o which_o i_o find_v

that_o christ_n make_v a_o end_n of_o all_o sabbath_n by_o his_o sabbath_n in_o the_o grave_a and_o that_o present_o the_o lord_n day_n come_v in_o the_o place_n of_o it_o and_o that_o according_a to_o austin_n judgement_n the_o lord_n day_n be_v declare_v to_o be_v the_o christian_a sabbath_n by_o the_o resurrection_n of_o jesus_n christ_n which_o the_o say_a bishop_n not_o only_o say_v but_o
