that_o christ_n himself_o do_v appoint_v the_o day_n and_o therefore_o in_o the_o day_n of_o his_o resurrection_n he_o do_v use_v mean_n to_o assemble_v his_o disciple_n together_o that_o he_o may_v

that_o when_o he_o speak_v of_o his_o death_n and_o resurrection_n he_o may_v well_o speak_v how_o he_o have_v end_v all_o moses_n ceremony_n and_o so_o consequent_o how_o he_o have_v end_v the_o

than_o his_o appear_v on_o that_o day_n seven-night_n have_v not_o be_v so_o remarkable_a but_o see_v he_o do_v not_o appear_v any_o more_o unto_o they_o till_o that_o day_n seven-night_n it_o

the_o more_o confirm_v in_o the_o truth_n of_o this_o because_o this_o second_o time_n of_o his_o meeting_n be_v not_o occasion_v by_o any_o sabbatical_a feast_n of_o the_o jew_n for_o the_o last_o

that_o this_o assembly_n of_o the_o apostle_n and_o disciple_n be_v do_v by_o christ_n direction_n and_o luke_n do_v testify_v that_o christ_n do_v give_v certain_a commandment_n to_o his_o apostle_n

the_o apostle_n in_o that_o they_o use_v the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n for_o god_n public_a worship_n in_o christian_n churches_n that_o christ_n do_v command_v they_o to_o observe_v that_o
