this_o opinion_n argum._n 11_o the_o eleven_o argument_n to_o prove_v the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n be_v more_o general_a than_o the_o former_a viz_o because_o all_o law_n that_o be_v never_o repeal_v be_v in_o force_n therefore_o the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n be_v in_o force_n by_o a_o law_n because_o it_o be_v once_o command_v and_o never_o repeal_v i_o answer_v if_o by_o the_o not_o repeal_n of_o a_o law_n they_o do_v mean_a that_o which_o be_v not_o express_o and_o particular_o repeal_v than_o we_o must_v keep_v the_o passover_n for_o that_o be_v once_o a_o law_n and_o be_v never_o

furthermore_o by_o this_o argument_n we_o must_v keep_v the_o seven_o year_n for_o a_o sabbath_n and_o neither_o plough_n or_o sow_v our_o field_n or_o do_v any_o work_n for_o that_o whole_a year_n because_o it_o be_v once_o command_v levit._n 25._o and_o it_o be_v never_o express_o and_o particular_o repeal_v but_o do_v it_o therefore_o follow_v that_o we_o be_v bind_v to_o observe_v these_o thing_n in_o like_a manner_n it_o do_v not_o follow_v that_o the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n must_v be_v still_o observe_v because_o it_o be_v once_o command_v and_o in_o so_o many_o word_n be_v never_o

that_o be_v urge_v for_o example_n and_o they_o be_v those_o that_o tell_v we_o that_o be_v apostle_n preach_v in_o the_o synagogue_n every_o sabbath-day_n act._n 13.14_o 42._o act._n 16.12_o 13._o

therefore_o gentile_a believer_n be_v bind_v to_o keep_v it_o i_o answer_v that_o this_o law_n be_v give_v to_o none_o but_o israel_n as_o appear_v psal_n 137.19_o 20._o he_o have_v give_v his_o law_n to_o jacob_n his_o statue_n and_o judgement_n to_o israel_n be_v have_v not_o do_v so_o to_o any_o nation_n again_o the_o apostle_n tell_v we_o rom._n 2._o that_o the_o jew_n be_v under_o the_o law_n but_o the_o gentile_n be_v without_o the_o law_n argum._n 3_o the_o gentile_n must_v keep_v all_o the_o nine_o commandment_n therefore_o they_o must_v keep_v the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n i_o answer_v they_o be_v bind_v to_o all_o the_o nine_o express_o and_o particular_o by_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n and_o the_o law_n of_o christ_n but_o they_o be_v not_o so_o bind_v to_o the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n again_o that_o law_n of_o the_o four_o commandment_n bind_v we_o as_o to_o a_o time_n to_o worship_n though_o not_o that_o time_n of_o the_o seventh-day_n but_o second_o may_v not_o these_o man_n as_o well_o object_n this_o against_o the_o apostle_n who_o express_o complain_v of_o the_o gentile_n for_o the_o breach_n of_o all_o the_o nine_o commandment_n but_o not_o a_o word_n that_o they_o do_v not_o keep_v the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n as_o i_o shall_v show_v by_o and_o by_o which_o doubtless_o he_o will_v have_v have_v a_o occasion_n to_o have_v do_v have_v the_o seventh-day_n sabbath-breaking_a be_v a_o breach_n of_o a_o moral_a law_n as_o well_o as_o the_o other_o nine_o precept_n argum._n 4_o another_o argument_n be_v take_v from_o the_o reason_n of_o the_o law_n give_v to_o israel_n which_o be_v first_o god_n give_v this_o as_o a_o reason_n why_o israel_n shall_v rest_v the_o seventh-day_n because_o in_o six_o day_n he_o make_v heaven_n and_o earth_n therefore_o if_o this_o reason_n be_v believe_v by_o christian_a gentile_n than_o this_o law_n shall_v be_v observe_v by_o they_o second_o god_n command_v israel_n to_o rest_v the_o seventh-day_n because_o it_o be_v the_o sabbath_n of_o the_o lord_n their_o god_n therefore_o if_o jehovah_n be_v the_o lord_n our_o god_n his_o sabbath_n must_v be_v our_o sabbath_n three_o god_n do_v command_v this_o duty_n for_o the_o good_a of_o our_o servant_n and_o cattle_n therefore_o if_o we_o will_v show_v mercy_n to_o they_o we_o must_v keep_v the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n i_o answer_v to_o the_o first_o that_o the_o reason_n of_o a_o law_n may_v be_v universal_a and_o always_o remain_v when_o the_o law_n do_v not_o remain_v as_o for_o instance_n the_o reason_n why_o god_n will_v have_v the_o people_n of_o israel_n to_o sanctify_v the_o priest_n the_o son_n of_o aaron_n be_v because_o he_o be_v the_o lord_n that_o do_v sanctify_v they_o levit_fw-la 21._o 8._o now_o i_o hope_v all_o christian_a gentile_n believe_v that_o god_n do_v sanctify_v they_o but_o do_v it_o therefore_o follow_v that_o because_o god_n do_v sanctify_v believe_v gentile_n that_o therefore_o they_o must_v sanctify_v a_o levitical_a priesthood_n second_o the_o place_n of_o israel_n worship_n be_v call_v the_o house_n of_o the_o lord_n god_n do_v it_o therefore_o follow_v that_o believe_a gentile_n must_v therefore_o sanctify_v that_o place_n because_o god_n be_v the_o god_n of_o the_o gentile_n no_o more_o do_v it_o follow_v that_o because_o the_o seventh-day_n be_v the_o sabbath_n of_o the_o lord_n god_n that_o therefore_o the_o believe_a gentile_n must_v observe_v it_o three_o whereas_o it_o be_v say_v we_o must_v rest_v the_o seventh-day_n that_o we_o may_v show_v mercy_n to_o our_o servant_n and_o cattle_n i_o answer_v we_o can_v do_v that_o by_o rest_v the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n as_o well_o as_o by_o rest_v the_o seven_o second_o if_o because_o that_o we_o must_v show_v mercy_n be_v a_o reason_n why_o we_o shall_v keep_v the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n because_o israel_n be_v to_o keep_v it_o for_o that_o reason_n than_o we_o must_v also_o drink_v deep_o of_o this_o cup_n of_o judaisme_n and_o keep_v the_o seventh-yeer_n sabbath_n because_o that_o be_v command_v for_o the_o benefit_n of_o the_o poor_a exod._n 23.11_o that_o the_o poor_a of_o thy_o people_n may_v eat_v etc._n etc._n so_o that_o the_o reason_n of_o a_o law_n may_v have_v a_o be_v when_o the_o law_n have_v none_o as_o appear_v by_o the_o reason_n of_o the_o sanctify_a the_o priest_n it_o be_v because_o god_n sanctify_v the_o people_n yet_o though_o we_o do_v believe_v that_o god_n do_v sanctify_v we_o yet_o we_o be_v not_o therefore_o to_o sanctify_v the_o legal_a priesthood_n in_o like_a manner_n though_o we_o do_v believe_v with_o abraham_n isaak_n and_o jacob_n that_o god_n make_v heaven_n and_o earth_n in_o six_o day_n and_o rest_v the_o seven_o yet_o this_o be_v no_o reason_n why_o we_o rather_o than_o they_o shall_v observe_v that_o day_n any_o more_o than_o why_o we_o shall_v observe_v the_o other_o judaical_a law_n who_o reason_n be_v still_o the_o same_o though_o the_o law_n be_v change_v argum._n 5_o the_o next_o argument_n follow_v from_o the_o scripture_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n and_o they_o be_v such_o as_o pretend_v to_o command_v and_o example_n even_o as_o the_o former_a i_o shall_v first_o speak_v to_o those_o text_n that_o be_v cite_v to_o prove_v that_o the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n be_v command_v in_o the_o new_a testament_n and_o the_o first_o be_v mat._n 5.17_o 18._o the_o word_n be_v these_o think_v not_o that_o i_o be_o come_v to_o destroy_v the_o law_n and_o the_o prophet_n i_o be_o not_o come_v to_o destroy_v but_o to_o fulfil_v for_o

offer_v of_o sacrifice_n be_v also_o a_o part_n of_o this_o law_n but_o do_v it_o follow_v therefore_o that_o believe_a gentile_n must_v offer_v sacrifice_n to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n and_o that_o offer_v of_o sacrifice_n be_v a_o point_n of_o this_o law_n see_v v._o 23_o 24._o where_o our_o lord_n as_o true_o command_v that_o a_o man_n shall_v come_v and_o offer_v his_o gift_n upon_o

second_o christ_n say_v the_o same_o thing_n of_o the_o prophet_n as_o well_o as_o of_o the_o law_n that_o they_o shall_v not_o pass_v away_o till_o they_o be_v fulfil_v and_o yet_o many_o of_o they_o be_v fulfil_v in_o christ_n time_n three_o christ_n say_v of_o his_o own_o word_n matth._n 24.35_o that_o heaven_n and_o earth_n shall_v pass_v away_o but_o his_o word_n shall_v not_o pass_v and_o yet_o the_o 34_o ver_fw-la say_v that_o that_o generation_n shall_v not_o pass_v away_o till_o all_o those_o thing_n be_v fulfil_v the_o meaning_n than_o be_v clear_o this_o that_o rather_o than_o either_o the_o law_n or_o his_o word_n shall_v pass_v unfulfil_v heaven_n and_o earth_n shall_v pass_v which_o do_v in_o no_o wise_n argue_v that_o all_o the_o law_n and_o prophet_n shall_v remain_v unfulfil_v till_o the_o heaven_n shall_v be_v no_o more_o for_o the_o text_n tell_v we_o he_o come_v to_o fulfil_v the_o law_n and_o prophet_n so_o that_o if_o all_o the_o law_n and_o prophet_n be_v unfulfil_v christ_n do_v not_o answer_v the_o end_n of_o his_o come_n and_o if_o any_o be_v fulfil_v then_o all_o the_o law_n must_v not_o last_v till_o the_o heaven_n be_v no_o more_o and_o if_o any_o be_v fulfil_v than_o the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n may_v be_v fulfil_v since_o the_o sabbath_n be_v call_v a_o shadow_n of_o good_a thing_n to_o come_v col._n 2.16_o 17._o however_o if_o any_o of_o that_o law_n mat._n 5._o be_v fulfil_v by_o christ_n no_o man_n can_v conclude_v reasonable_o from_o that_o text_n that_o the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n be_v in_o force_n last_o though_o all_o

upon_o the_o spirit_n of_o it_o viz._n the_o law_n write_v in_o the_o heart_n so_o that_o the_o instance_n have_v not_o answer_v the_o argument_n however_o i_o shall_v answer_v the_o instance_n and_o first_o you_o say_v that_o there_o may_v be_v a_o absolute_a necessity_n to_o commit_v murder_n adultery_n and_o steal_v etc._n etc._n to_o which_o i_o answer_v that_o this_o be_v such_o a_o piece_n of_o divinity_n that_o the_o world_n do_v never_o hear_v of_o before_o and_o the_o first_o instance_n you_o assign_v be_v abraham_n be_v command_v of_o god_n to_o offer_v up_o his_o son_n isaak_n etc._n etc._n to_o which_o i_o answer_v that_o if_o abraham_n have_v kill_v isaak_n it_o have_v not_o be_v murder_n first_o because_o he_o do_v not_o hate_v his_o son_n in_o his_o heart_n while_o he_o

or_o my_o neighbour_n but_o second_o god_n command_v abraham_n by_o a_o immediate_a law_n from_o heaven_n otherwise_o abraham_n can_v not_o have_v pretend_v to_o any_o necessity_n that_o will_v have_v

the_o argument_n that_o say_v there_o be_v no_o necessity_n to_o hate_n god_n or_o my_o neighbour_n for_o the_o people_n do_v neither_o hate_n god_n nor_o their_o neighbour_n in_o that_o they_o do_v not_o take_v away_o the_o life_n of_o their_o king_n for_o what_o he_o do_v against_o uriah_n the_o hittite_n and_o for_o your_o instance_n in_o the_o case_n of_o the_o israelite_n steal_v from_o the_o egyptian_n which_o you_o say_v god_n allow_v of_o etc._n etc._n i_o answer_v that_o first_o there_o be_v no_o absolute_a necessity_n for_o they_o to_o spoil_v the_o egyptian_n and_o so_o consequent_o no_o necessity_n to_o break_v a_o law_n in_o nature_n by_o hate_v either_o god_n or_o their_o neighbour_n but_o second_o god_n give_v israel_n favour_n in_o the_o sight_n of_o the_o

there_o be_v no_o breach_n of_o a_o law_n in_o nature_n but_o last_o have_v they_o take_v these_o thing_n by_o force_n it_o have_v not_o be_v a_o breach_n of_o a_o law_n in_o nature_n because_o that_o
