not_o give_v this_o caution_n to_o his_o disciple_n in_o the_o nature_n of_o a_o command_n or_o forbid_v but_o in_o the_o nature_n of_o a_o disallow_a of_o the_o jew_n superstitious_a opinion_n of_o the_o outward_a rest_n of_o the_o sabbath_n so_o long_o after_o his_o death_n they_o may_v in_o that_o space_n have_v be_v better_o teach_v and_o instruct_v if_o they_o have_v not_o be_v enemy_n to_o the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n but_o because_o they_o will_v not_o be_v instruct_v therefore_o our_o saviour_n tell_v his_o disciple_n that_o the_o jew_n of_o judea_n in_o general_n will_v hold_v such_o a_o superstitious_a opinion_n both_o of_o the_o holiness_n of_o the_o temple_n and_o of_o the_o outward_a rest_n of_o the_o sabbath_n day_n that_o it_o will_v be_v a_o grievous_a calamity_n to_o

our_o saviour_n speak_v this_o to_o his_o disciple_n but_o as_o a_o prophetical_a historian_n foretell_v they_o what_o will_v be_v the_o common_a opinion_n of_o the_o nation_n of_o the_o jew_n in_o those_o day_n namely_o that_o they_o will_v be_v infect_v with_o such_o a_o superstitious_a opinion_n of_o the_o holiness_n of_o the_o outward_a rest_n of_o the_o sabbath_n that_o they_o will_v neither_o stir_v hand_n or_o foot_n to_o break_v the_o outward_a rest_n of_o the_o sabbath_n by_o flight_n to_o save_v their_o life_n this_o caution_n of_o our_o saviour_n to_o his_o disciple_n must_v needs_o be_v understand_v in_o this_o sense_n because_o the_o whole_a frame_n of_o his_o speech_n be_v fetch_v by_o way_n of_o allusion_n to_o a_o former_a like_o sad_a calamity_n which_o fall_v upon_o they_o under_o anti●chus_n epiphanes_n who_o do_v purposely_o molest_v they_o upon_o the_o sabbath_n day_n as_o also_o in_o the_o winter_n time_n and_o then_o they_o suffer_v extreme_a misery_n by_o reason_n of_o their_o superstitious_a opinion_n of_o the_o outward_a rest_n of_o the_o sabbath_n day_n which_o they_o may_v have_v prevent_v if_o they_o have_v hold_v it_o lawful_a at_o first_o

to_o his_o disciple_n do_v allude_v to_o the_o time_n of_o antiochus_n and_o therefore_o he_o do_v mention_v the_o winter_n as_o well_o as_o the_o sabbath_n day_n for_o judas_n maccabeus_n do_v cleanse_v the_o temple_n and_o the_o altar_n in_o the_o winter_n joh._n 10._o 22._o and_o three_o year_n before_o it_o be_v pollute_v in_o the_o winter_n 1_o mac._n 1._o 54._o and_o second_o it_o be_v

this_o calamitous_a time_n our_o saviour_n bid_v they_o pray_v that_o their_o flight_n may_v neither_o be_v in_o the_o winter_n nor_o yet_o upon_o the_o sabbath_n day_n for_o than_o they_o will_v do_v as_o they_o have_v do_v neither_o fight_n nor_o fly_v to_o save_v their_o life_n this_o their_o blind_a zeal_n our_o saviour_n reprove_v 1_o mac._n 2_o 34._o 36._o 38._o 41._o and_o 2_o mac._n 6._o 11._o it_o follow_v therefore_o by_o good_a consequence_n that_o our_o saviour_n do_v not_o now_o in_o sadness_n teach_v his_o disciple_n the_o continuance_n of_o the_o sabbath_n so_o long_o after_o his_o death_n no_o more_o than_o he_o teach_v they_o the_o continuance_n of_o the_o service_n of_o the_o temple_n by_o call_v the_o temple_n the_o holy_a place_n vers_fw-la 15._o but_o no_o man_n i_o think_v will_v say_v that_o christ_n do_v then_o esteem_v the_o temple_n to_o be_v the_o holy_a place_n but_o he_o name_v it_o so_o docas●ic●s_v because_o the_o jew_n of_o judea_n in_o general_n will_v then_o esteem_v it_o and_o call_v it_o the_o holy_a place_n and_o in_o that_o respect_n also_o our_o saviour_n do_v call_v the_o roman_n that_o shall_v enter_v into_o the_o temple_n the_o abomination_n of_o desolation_n just_a as_o daniel_n have_v do_v dan._n 9_o 27._o by_o this_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o christ_n speak_v by_o allusion_n to_o former_a time_n but_o he_o know_v well_o enough_o that_o the_o holiness_n of_o the_o temple_n as_o well_o as_o the_o typical_a rest_n of_o the_o holy_a sabbath_n be_v full_o end_v by_o his_o death_n i_o grant_v that_o the_o temple_n be_v once_o true_o call_v the_o holy_a temple_n because_o it_o be_v ordain_v to_o be_v a_o type_n of_o the_o holy_a humane_a nature_n of_o christ_n wherein_o his_o godhead_n dwell_v job_n 2_o but_o yet_o this_o typical_a holiness_n of_o the_o temple_n must_v needs_o have_v a_o end_n as_o soon_o as_o the_o holy_a of_o holies_n do_v but_o enter_v through_o the_o vail_n of_o his_o flesh_n into_o heaven_n to_o appear_v before_o god_n for_o we_o dan._n 9_o 24._o with_o mat._n 27._o 50_o 51._o heb._n 9_o 14._o and_o the_o goodliness_n also_o of_o the_o temple_n must_v have_v a_o end_n as_o soon_o as_o he_o that_o be_v great_a than_o the_o temple_n have_v finish_v his_o oblation_n mat._n 12._o 26._o and_o by_o the_o like_a reason_n also_o the_o sabbath_n as_o it_o be_v a_o type_n of_o our_o rest_v

my_o answer_n to_o this_o objection_n that_o christ_n by_o this_o speech_n of_o he_o to_o his_o disciple_n do_v but_o tell_v they_o what_o will_v be_v the_o common_a opinion_n of_o the_o nation_n of_o the_o jew_n at_o the_o time_n of_o the_o destruction_n of_o jerusalem_n as_o i_o have_v already_o declare_v it_o but_o he_o intend_v no_o more_o to_o teach_v they_o the_o continuance_n of_o the_o sabbath_n than_o the_o continuance_n of_o the_o holiness_n of_o the_o temple_n neither_o do_v he_o by_o this_o caution_n to_o his_o disciple_n intend_v to_o prefer_v the_o sabbath_n above_o the_o lord_n day_n no_o more_o than_o he_o intend_v to_o prefer_v the_o winter_n above_o the_o summer_n of_o all_o which_o thing_n he_o speak_v by_o way_n of_o caution_n to_o his_o disciple_n what_o will_v be_v the_o common_a opinion_n of_o the_o jew_n at_o the_o destruction_n of_o jerusalem_n object_n 4._o if_o christ_n have_v ordain_v his_o resurrection-day_n as_o the_o day_n of_o his_o public_a worship_n in_o place_n of_o the_o sabbath_n or_o
seven_o day_n in_o the_o evening_n before_o as_o they_o do_v this_o yearly_a fasting-sabbath_n for_o maymony_n say_v such_o work_n as_o may_v be_v do_v on_o the_o evening_n of_o a_o feast-day_n they_o do_v not_o upon_o a_o feast-day_n etc._n etc._n see_v ain_z in_o 23._o 7._o by_o this_o testimony_n it_o be_v evident_a that_o they_o do_v not_o hold_v the_o evening_n before_o their_o festival-sabbaths_a to_o be_v as_o holy_a as_o the_o day_n itself_o 2_o maymony_n say_v it_o be_v unlawful_a to_o do_v work_n in_o the_o evening_n of_o the_o festival_n sabbath_n from_o the_o time_n of_o the_o evening_n sacrifice_n and_o forward_o even_o as_o on_o the_o evening_n of_o the_o sabbath_n and_o who_o so_o do_v work_n in_o they_o shall_v never_o see_v a_o sign_n of_o a_o bessing_n

of_o the_o passeover_n after_o midday_n whoso_o do_v work_v therein_o after_o midday_n be_v to_o be_v scourge_v or_o excommunicate_v with_o the_o niddui_n for_o the_o evening_n of_o the_o fourteen_o day_n of_o nishan_n be_v not_o like_o the_o evening_n of_o other_o festival_n day_n because_o in_o it_o be_v the_o feast_n and_o the_o kill_n of_o sacrifice_n see_v ain_n in_o leu._n 23._o 5._o two_o thing_n be_v observable_a from_o this_o record_n of_o maymony_n 1_o that_o the_o jew_n do_v make_v some_o kind_n of_o preparation_n both_o to_o their_o festival-sabbaths_a and_o to_o their_o sabbath_n or_o seven_o day_n from_o the_o time_n of_o the_o evening_n sacrifice_n and_o forward_o 2_o hence_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o the_o hebrew_n doctor_n do_v not_o esteem_v any_o part_n of_o the_o evening_n before_o their_o sabbath_n to_o be_v as_o holy_a as_o the_o day_n follow_v because_o they_o do_v neither_o scourge_n nor_o excommunicate_v any_o man_n for_o work_v in_o the_o evening_n before_o their_o sabbath_n as_o they_o do_v for_o work_v in_o the_o passeover_n evening_n and_o the_o reason_n be_v plain_a because_o they_o esteem_v both_o the_o part_n of_o the_o passeover-evening_n to_o be_v the_o very_a day_n of_o the_o passeover_n itself_o but_o it_o seem_v they_o do_v not_o esteem_v the_o evening_n before_o the_o sabbath_n to_o be_v any_o true_a part_n of_o the_o sabbath_n itself_o for_o doubtless_o if_o they_o have_v esteem_v it_o as_o a_o true_a part_n of_o the_o sabbath_n itself_o they_o will_v not_o only_o have_v scourge_v and_o excommunicate_v such_o person_n that_o do_v presume_v to_o work_v in_o the_o evening_n before_o the_o sabbath_n but_o also_o they_o will_v have_v stone_v they_o to_o death_n if_o they_o have_v presumptuous_o break_v the_o rest_n of_o the_o holy_a sabbath_n numb_a 15._o 35._o and_o as_o maymony_n make_v the_o evening_n of_o the_o passeover_n not_o like_o the_o evening_n that_o go_v before_o their_o festival_n sabbath_n nor_o like_o the_o evening_n that_o go_v before_o their_o weekly_a sabbath_n so_o i_o may_v say_v of_o the_o evening_n that_o go_v before_o the_o day_n of_o atonement_n that_o it_o be_v more_o strict_a for_o holy_a rest_n than_o the_o evening_n that_o go_v before_o any_o of_o the_o other_o sabbath_n from_o all_o the_o premise_n i_o conclude_v that_o no_o day_n in_o all_o the_o year_n be_v command_v to_o be_v of_o such_o a_o length_n for_o strict_a rest_n as_o this_o day_n be_v for_o the_o strict_a rest_n of_o this_o day_n and_o the_o strict_a fast_o of_o this_o day_n begin_v in_o the_o sacrifice_n evening_n or_o else_o at_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o latter_a evening_n of_o the_o nine_o day_n and_o it_o continue_v not_o only_o till_o a_o little_a after_o the_o sunset_n evening_n of_o the_o ten_o day_n as_o maymony_n say_v but_o also_o it_o continue_v long_o for_o some_o of_o the_o holy_a duty_n of_o the_o ten_o day_n can_v not_o be_v finish_v till_o midnight_n after_o for_o 1_o the_o priest_n must_v eat_v their_o part_n of_o the_o public_a sin-offering_a num._n 29._o 11._o which_o must_v be_v eat_v in_o the_o same_o day_n in_o which_o it_o be_v offer_v leu._n 6._o 26._o as_o other_o sacrifice_n be_v leu._n 7._o 15_o 18._o and_o yet_o the_o priest_n can_v not_o eat_v the_o holy_a flesh_n of_o this_o public_a sin-offering_a till_o after_o sunset_n for_o the_o fast_o of_o this_o day_n be_v not_o full_o end_v till_o after_o sunset_n and_o therefore_o also_o they_o may_v not_o begin_v to_o cook_n that_o holy_a flesh_n until_o the_o fast_a be_v full_o end_v hence_o it_o follow_v that_o the_o same_o day_n do_v still_o continue_v till_o after_o sunset_n yea_o until_o it_o be_v midnight_n 2_o the_o priest_n have_v another_o work_n to_o do_v within_o the_o limit_n of_o this_o ten_o day_n namely_o they_o must_v burn_v all_o the_o fat_v and_o piece_n of_o all_o the_o public_a evening-sacrifice_n of_o this_o day_n which_o be_v many_o and_o some_o of_o their_o

the_o month_n between_o the_o middle_n of_o those_o thing_n that_o belong_v to_o the_o evening_n in_o this_o translation_n they_o do_v not_o full_o name_v the_o two_o evening_n but_o yet_o after_o a_o

they_o call_v that_o which_o be_v do_v between_o the_o two_o evening_n the_o middle_a of_o the_o evening_n in_o the_o singular_a number_n therefore_o i_o may_v well_o conclude_v that_o their_o

as_o large_a in_o length_n of_o time_n as_o gnarbaiim_v the_o two_o evening_n be_v for_o not_o only_o evening_n the_o hebrew_n text_n do_v make_v the_o two_o evening_n to_o be_v but_o one_o proper_a

for_o example_n four_o place_n of_o scripture_n do_v command_v they_o to_o offer_v the_o daily_a evening_n sacrifice_n between_o the_o two_o evening_n but_o many_o more_o place_n say_v it_o shall_v be_v do_v or_o sacrifice_v in_o gnereb_n the_o evening_n five_o place_n command_v all_o the_o passover_n to_o be_v sacrifice_v between_o the_o two_o evening_n but_o more_o place_n say_v it_o shall_v be_v do_v or_o sacrifice_v in_o gnereb_n the_o evening_n one_o place_n say_v that_o the_o priest_n must_v cause_v the_o lamp_n to_o burn_v between_o the_o two_o evening_n but_o other_o place_n say_v in_o the_o evening_n one_o place_n say_v the_o quail_n come_v between_o the_o two_o evening_n but_o other_o place_n say_v they_o come_v in_o gnereb_n the_o evening_n therefore_o gnereb_n and_o

such_o a_o connexion_n as_o may_v be_v distinguish_v or_o sever_v from_o each_o other_o into_o two_o distinct_a part_n as_o i_o may_v exemplify_v the_o matter_n by_o a_o particoloured_a coat_n one_o
