of_o the_o verse_n he_o name_v the_o evening_n before_o the_o morning_n and_o what_o else_o do_v this_o argue_n but_o that_o he_o do_v thereby_o intend_v that_o god_n people_n shall_v take_v notice_n that_o the_o evening_n and_o the_o morning_n be_v a_o differ_a division_n of_o the_o natural_a day_n from_o the_o division_n of_o day_n and_o night_n reason_n ii_o if_o moses_n have_v intend_v to_o call_v the_o first_o darkness_n evening_n as_o synonimous_a to_o the_o term_n night_n then_o doubtless_o some_o scripture_n or_o other_o will_v have_v show_v they_o to_o be_v synonima_n see_v the_o

to_o boker_n the_o morning_n but_o the_o best_a way_n to_o answer_v this_o and_o many_o other_o objection_n be_v to_o lay_v down_o the_o true_a interpretation_n of_o gnereb_n the_o evening_n in_o the_o various_a use_n of_o it_o in_o the_o scripture_n i_o be_o not_o ignorant_a that_o gnereb_n be_v usual_o interpret_v to_o

interpretation_n because_o it_o be_v not_o possible_a by_o this_o interpretation_n to_o find_v out_o the_o true_a form_n &_o shape_n of_o the_o natural_a evening_n i_o have_v therefore_o make_v diligent_a search_n into_o the_o various_a use_n of_o this_o word_n and_o i_o find_v that_o gnereb_n do_v signify_v not_o a_o confuse_a mix_n and_o mingle_v of_o thing_n together_o but_o a_o connex_v conjoin_v or_o couple_v of_o two_o or_o more_o distinct_a thing_n together_o without_o confound_v their_o several_a species_n or_o nature_n and_o therefore_o wine_n and_o water_n mix_v together_o

of_o twilight_n be_v comprehend_v within_o the_o large_a limit_n of_o gnereb_n because_o it_o be_v the_o partition_n of_o gnarbaiim_n the_o two_o evening_n but_o the_o twilight_n itself_o be_v ever_o

gnereb_n from_o a_o confuse_a mix_n or_o mingle_v of_o thing_n together_o and_o to_o make_v it_o clear_a and_o evident_a that_o it_o only_o signify_v a_o conjunction_n of_o two_o or_o more_o

first_o half_n of_o the_o artificial_a day_n and_o it_o be_v most_o evident_a that_o this_o be_v the_o true_a meaning_n of_o moses_n because_o he_o do_v afterward_o explain_v gnereb_n the_o single_a

this_o interpretation_n of_o gnereb_n in_o gen._n 1._o 5._o these_o three_o conclusion_n do_v follow_v 1_o that_o the_o first_o darkness_n be_v not_o nor_o can_v be_v call_v gnereb_n the_o evening_n 2_o that_o the_o whole_a night_n be_v not_o nor_o can_v be_v call_v gnereb_n the_o evening_n in_o a_o proper_a sense_n 3_o that_o the_o twilight_n can_v be_v call_v gnereb_n the_o evening_n and_o the_o reason_n be_v because_o none_o of_o these_o three_o have_v any_o distinct_a conjunction_n of_o species_n to_o make_v they_o gnereb_n and_o from_o this_o interpretation_n of_o gnereb_n i_o

begin_v at_o midday_n but_o mr._n thomas_n shepherd_n in_o his_o three_o part_n on_o the_o sabbath_n thesis_n 36._o do_v affirm_v that_o the_o hebrew_n doctor_n testimony_n be_v of_o little_a worth_n because_o they_o do_v often_o contradict_v one_o another_o about_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o evening_n for_o though_o some_o of_o they_o do_v say_v that_o the_o evening_n do_v begin_v at_o midday_n yet_o they_o be_v overwhelm_v with_o cross_a testimony_n from_o the_o most_o of_o their_o fellow_n who_o begin_v it_o some_o about_o one_o some_o about_o two_o a_o clock_n in_o the_o afternoon_n and_o josephus_n who_o be_v one_o of_o most_o credit_n in_o his_o write_n tell_v we_o that_o they_o begin_v their_o first_o evening_n about_o three_o a_o clock_n in_o the_o afternoon_n ans_fw-fr i_o will_v mr._n shepheard_n have_v cite_v the_o particular_a place_n where_o the_o hebrew_n doctor_n do_v cross_a one_o another_o about_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o evening_n for_o then_o the_o particular_a place_n shall_v have_v be_v examine_v by_o the_o help_n of_o such_o as_o be_v expert_a in_o their_o write_n i_o grant_v that_o some_o of_o they_o do_v speak_v of_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o evening_n at_o one_o hour_n and_o some_o at_o another_o and_o yet_o all_o this_o without_o any_o contradiction_n for_o in_o regard_n of_o several_a duty_n that_o must_v be_v trans-acted_n at_o several_a hour_n in_o the_o evening_n they_o have_v just_a occasion_n to_o speak_v of_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o evening_n at_o several_a hour_n in_o relation_n to_o the_o say_v several_a duty_n that_o must_v begin_v at_o several_a hour_n of_o the_o say_a evening_n as_o i_o note_v it_o in_o chap._n 2._o in_o answer_n to_o obj._n 1._o at_o seventhly_a and_o as_o i_o have_v note_v it_o immediate_o afore_o from_o the_o babylonian_a thalmud_n but_o if_o it_o do_v appear_v true_a that_o josephus_n do_v precise_o begin_v the_o evening_n at_o three_o a_o clock_n and_o not_o in_o relation_n to_o some_o special_a duty_n than_o i_o grant_v that_o such_o a_o testimony_n be_v worthy_a of_o due_a consideration_n but_o i_o believe_v that_o josephus_n be_v some_o way_n or_o other_o mistake_v for_o the_o thalmud_n call_v jerusalemie_n which_o be_v finish_v since_o josephus_n deut._n see_v ain_n in_o advertisement_n at_o the_o end_n of_o deut._n write_v namely_o about_o the_o year_n of_o our_o lord_n two_o

and_o yet_o these_o do_v affirm_v that_o the_o evening_n begin_v at_o midday_n and_o moses_n the_o son_n of_o maymon_n who_o live_v in_o the_o year_n of_o our_o lord_n one_o thousand_o two_o hundred_o have_v set_v down_o in_o plain_a hebrew_a the_o exposition_n canon_n and_o tradition_n of_o the_o say_a thalmud_n and_o of_o the_o more_o ancient_a hebrew_n doctor_n omit_v the_o fabulous_a

son_n of_o maymon_n there_o be_v none_o like_o this_o moses_n and_o from_o he_o also_o i_o have_v cite_v several_a testimony_n that_o the_o evening_n begin_v at_o midday_n therefore_o see_v these_o public_a and_o general_a recorder_n do_v testify_v that_o the_o evening_n begin_v at_o midday_n how_o can_v they_o be_v overwhelm_v with_o cross_a testimony_n as_o mr._n shepheard_n do_v unadvised_o affirm_v and_o i_o little_a question_n but_o josephus_n be_v take_v in_o a_o wrong_a sense_n by_o master_n shepheard_n and_o if_o the_o place_n have_v be_v cite_v it_o shall_v have_v be_v examine_v and_o a_o more_o particular_a answer_n return_v and_o take_v notice_n by_o the_o way_n that_o i_o do_v not_o find_v any_o other_o objection_n in_o mr._n shepheard_n that_o be_v of_o any_o moment_n

of_o sunset_n for_o moses_n say_v thus_o in_o deut._n 16._o 6._o thou_o shall_v sacrifice_v the_o passeover_n in_o the_o evening_n about_o the_o go_v down_o of_o the_o sun_n in_o the_o season_n thou_o
