will_v not_o have_v provide_v for_o the_o sabbath_n and_o therefore_o if_o it_o shall_v happen_v that_o the_o seller_n have_v sell_v all_o and_o the_o poor_a not_o provide_v for_o themselves_o than_o the_o sabbath_n will_v not_o have_v have_v its_o due_a honour_n but_o why_o then_o do_v he_o not_o cause_v they_o to_o be_v give_v to_o the_o cattle_n it_o have_v be_v better_a to_o do_v so_o than_o to_o cast_v they_o careless_o away_o the_o answer_n be_v that_o he_o will_v not_o give_v those_o thing_n to_o cattle_n which_o man_n may_v eat_v and_o from_o which_o they_o may_v have_v profit_n for_o they_o may_v perchance_o take_v they_o out_o of_o the_o water_n but_o why_o do_v he_o command_v they_o to_o be_v buy_v the_o reason_n be_v that_o those_o who_o sell_v such_o commodity_n may_v willingly_a come_v to_o the_o market_n for_o suppose_v they_o to_o come_v often_o and_o sell_v nought_o they_o will_v soon_o be_v weary_a and_o not_o frequent_v the_o market_n and_o then_o the_o

candle_n and_o not_o man_n be_v by_o tradition_n chief_o two_o the_o first_o be_v when_o eve_n after_o eat_v the_o forbid_a fruit_n perceive_v by_o certain_a token_n that_o she_o shall_v die_v she_o persuade_v her_o husband_n to_o taste_v it_o too_o and_o tell_v he_o if_o i_o must_v die_v thou_o shall_v die_v with_o i_o but_o when_o her_o persuasion_n prevail_v not_o over_o his_o constancy_n she_o break_v off_o a_o branch_n from_o the_o tree_n and_o beat_v he_o till_o he_o do_v eat_v as_o it_o be_v express_v in_o genesis_n 3.2_o the_o woman_n which_o thou_o give_v to_o be_v with_o i_o she_o give_v i_o of_o the_o tree_n that_o be_v she_o pluck_v off_o a_o bough_n from_o the_o tree_n and_o with_o it_o beat_v i_o and_o i_o do_v eat_v so_o it_o be_v expound_v in_o the_o book_n chajim_n that_o be_v the_o way_n of_o life_n and_o by_o this_o mean_v poor_a adam_n be_v subject_a to_o his_o wife_n break_v the_o command_n of_o god_n and_o bring_v death_n upon_o himself_o and_o bequeath_v it_o to_o all_o his_o posterity_n but_o before_o eve_n have_v sin_v the_o sun_n shine_v bright_a as_o it_o will_v in_o the_o world_n to_o come_v on_o the_o just_a then_o they_o want_v not_o the_o instruction_n of_o hen_n and_o daw_n to_o teach_v they_o their_o duty_n but_o as_o soon_o as_o she_o have_v transgress_v the_o sun_n be_v cloud_v and_o the_o light_n of_o heaven_n be_v soon_o darken_v the_o second_o reason_n why_o the_o woman_n light_v the_o candle_n be_v because_o they_o be_v always_o at_o home_n but_o the_o man_n often_o abroad_o moreover_o we_o read_v exod._n 27.20_o thou_o shall_v command_v the_o child_n of_o israel_n that_o they_o bring_v thou_o pure_a oil-olive_n beat_v for_o the_o light_n to_o cause_v the_o lamp_n to_o burn_v always_o in_o the_o tabernacle_n before_o the_o testimony_n the_o rabbi_n moreover_o count_v that_o if_o a_o godly_a woman_n attend_v on_o the_o light_n of_o the_o candle_n she_o do_v as_o holy_a a_o deed_n as_o if_o she_o have_v kindle_v candle_n for_o the_o golden_a candlestick_n in_o the_o holy_a temple_n at_o jerusalem_n moreover_o we_o have_v it_o in_o the_o talmud_n that_o a_o woman_n guilty_a of_o these_o sin_n shall_v die_v in_o childbed_n first_o if_o she_o have_v not_o provide_v a_o cake_n second_o if_o she_o have_v not_o light_v up_o the_o candle_n three_o if_o she_o have_v not_o take_v great_a care_n of_o her_o menstruous_a clothes_n but_o if_o the_o woman_n diligent_o observe_v these_o precept_n they_o soon_o conceive_v and_o be_v easy_o deliver_v of_o these_o candle_n they_o have_v common_o two_o some_o time_n more_o according_a to_o the_o capacity_n of_o the_o house_n or_o dining-bed_n and_o in_o those_o candle_n all_o the_o member_n of_o man_n and_o woman_n body_n be_v secret_o contain_v according_a to_o jewish_a anatomise_v man_n have_v 248_o member_n woman_n 252_o which_o be_v add_v together_o make_v 500_o which_o number_n the_o hebrew_n word_n never_o signify_v a_o candle_n do_v signify_v they_o use_v candle_n of_o two_o sort_n because_o the_o light_n of_o life_n lose_v in_o eden_n may_v be_v restore_v again_o both_o to_o man_n and_o woman_n the_o reason_n that_o they_o lift_v up_o both_o hand_n towards_o the_o light_n be_v to_o guard_v their_o face_n from_o the_o ray_n of_o the_o candle_n while_o they_o repeat_v a_o short_a prayer_n which_o be_v not_o to_o be_v
