if_o we_o now_o consider_v as_o we_o ought_v what_o it_o be_v that_o be_v enjoin_v we_o in_o this_o commandment_n and_o what_o it_o be_v that_o be_v forbid_v in_o it_o and_o then_o reflect_v upon_o our_o own_o life_n find_v any_o of_o the_o duty_n of_o it_o neglect_v by_o we_o in_o thought_n word_n or_o action_n how_o affectionate_o shall_v we_o say_v with_o the_o church_n lord_n have_v mercy_n upon_o we_o and_o incline_v our_o heart_n to_o keep_v this_o law_n that_o be_v lord_n pity_n and_o pardon_v all_o our_o past_a breach_n of_o this_o commandment_n and_o so_o incline_v our_o heart_n to_o love_n and_o obedience_n for_o the_o future_a that_o by_o thy_o grace_n we_o may_v very_o sincere_o keep_v this_o law_n of_o thou_o for_o the_o remainder_n of_o our_o day_n but_o before_o we_o pass_v from_o this_o four_o commandment_n it_o may_v not_o be_v amiss_o to_o touch_v upon_o the_o reason_n of_o the_o change_n of_o the_o jewish_n seven_o day_n into_o the_o christian_a lord_n day_n the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n this_o precept_n of_o keep_v holy_a the_o seven_o day_n or_o sabbath_n be_v partly_o ceremonial_a and_o partly_o moral_a now_o the_o ceremonial_a part_n of_o the_o jewish_a law_n be_v do_v away_o but_o the_o moral_a part_n of_o it_o be_v confirm_v perfect_v and_o complete_v by_o the_o gospel_n the_o ceremonial_a part_n of_o this_o commandment_n be_v that_o god_n be_v public_o worship_v precise_o on_o the_o jewish_a sabbath_n or_o the_o seven_o day_n the_o moral_a part_n of_o it_o be_v that_o a_o certain_a and_o determine_a time_n be_v set_v out_o for_o the_o public_a worship_n of_o the_o eternal_a god_n and_o divine_a love_n and_o gratitude_n in_o we_o christian_n shall_v engage_v we_o not_o to_o come_v behind_o the_o jew_n in_o the_o return_n of_o our_o solemn_a day_n of_o public_a worship_n nay_o equity_n require_v we_o shall_v set_v out_o one_o day_n in_o the_o week_n to_o the_o more_o immediate_a glorification_n of_o god_n and_o our_o religious_a duty_n so_o that_o the_o jewish_a sabbath_n be_v abolish_v as_o they_o keep_v the_o seven_o day_n in_o memory_n of_o the_o creation_n so_o the_o apostle_n and_o the_o primitive_a church_n and_o all_o age_n of_o it_o since_o keep_v the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n in_o memory_n of_o our_o lord_n resurrection_n and_o our_o redemption_n for_o as_o the_o redemption_n of_o the_o world_n be_v a_o great_a mercy_n than_o the_o creation_n of_o it_o and_o as_o god_n rest_v from_o his_o labour_n of_o the_o creation_n on_o the_o seven_o day_n and_o our_o saviour_n rest_v from_o his_o labour_n of_o the_o new_a creation_n or_o his_o labour_n of_o our_o redemption_n on_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n when_o he_o arise_v from_o the_o dead_a so_o the_o apostle_n and_o the_o church_n in_o all_o age_n since_o have_v set_v apart_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n as_o the_o jew_n be_v to_o set_v apart_o the_o seven_o for_o the_o peculiar_a worship_n and_o service_n and_o glorification_n of_o god_n that_o our_o lord_n rise_v from_o the_o dead_a upon_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n we_o see_v st._n john_n xx_o that_o the_o disciple_n assemble_v together_o on_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n we_o be_v tell_v st._n john_n xx_o 19_o that_o st._n paul_n preach_v and_o the_o disciple_n meet_v to_o break_v bread_n that_o be_v to_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n on_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n we_o read_v act_n xx_o 7._o that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n descend_v on_o the_o apostle_n on_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n be_v certain_a act_v ij_o 1._o and_o that_o saint_n john_n express_o call_v it_o the_o lord's-day_n we_o read_v rev._n i_o 10._o so_o that_o as_o the_o moral_a equity_n of_o the_o commandment_n as_o well_o as_o divine_a love_n and_o gratitude_n oblige_v we_o to_o set_v apart_o one_o day_n in_o seven_o for_o a_o holy_a rest_n and_o for_o religious_a purpose_n so_o by_o the_o practice_n of_o the_o apostle_n and_o all_o follow_a age_n of_o the_o church_n the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n be_v substitute_v in_o the_o room_n of_o the_o jewish_a sabbath_n which_o compare_v with_o the_o scripture_n beforementioned_a be_v sufficient_a to_o warrant_v our_o practice_n so_o that_o to_o sum_n up_o the_o whole_a they_o the_o jew_n celebrate_v the_o seven_o day_n by_o divine_a command_n we_o the_o first_o day_n by_o apostolical_a practice_n they_o the_o seven_o day_n or_o last_o day_n of_o the_o week_n under_o the_o law_n of_o moses_n we_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n by_o
