no_o man_n judge_v you_o in_o meat_n or_o drink_n or_o holy_a day_n or_o new_a moon_n or_o sabbath-day_n which_o be_v a_o shadow_n of_o thing_n to_o come_v see_v also_o rom._n 14._o which_o plain_o

thou_o say_v that_o jesus_n christ_n plain_o intimate_v the_o continuance_n of_o a_o sabbath_n because_o that_o speak_v of_o the_o desolation_n of_o jerusalem_n he_o say_v pray_v that_o your_o

the_o jew_n be_v to_o flee_v at_o that_o time_n and_o christ_n hold_v forth_o their_o difficulty_n that_o it_o shall_v be_v grievous_a unto_o they_o to_o be_v put_v to_o it_o to_o flee_v on_o their_o sabbath-day_n or_o be_v kill_v for_o they_o keep_v it_o in_o the_o strictness_n of_o it_o but_o as_o for_o any_o of_o your_o sabbath-keeper_n they_o be_v not_o so_o straitlaced_n but_o they_o will_v do_v less_o necessary_a thing_n than_o to_o flee_v from_o a_o danger_n on_o that_o day_n and_o as_o the_o outward_a jew_n desire_v that_o he_o may_v not_o be_v put_v to_o flee_v on_o his_o outward_a sabbath_n so_o the_o inward_a jew_n in_o spirit_n desire_v much_o more_o that_o he_o may_v keep_v his_o sabbath_n which_o be_v his_o spiritual_a rest_n in_o christ_n that_o the_o enemy_n oft_o seek_v to_o break_v to_o cause_v he_o to_o flee_v on_o his_o sabbath-day_n but_o this_o to_o you_o be_v a_o mystery_n viz._n what_o the_o sabbath_n of_o they_o who_o believe_v be_v hebr._n 4.9_o 10._o there_o remain_v therefore_o a_o sabbatism_n to_o the_o people_n of_o god_n and_o he_o that_o be_v enter_v into_o his_o rest_n have_v cease_v from_o his_o own_o work_n as_o god_n do_v from_o he_o and_o that_o this_o sabbath_n or_o rest_n be_v not_o a_o outward_a day_n be_v plain_a because_o in_o the_o next_o verse_n he_o say_v let_v we_o labour_v therefore_o to_o enter_v into_o that_o rest._n
