A56363	Holy time: or, The true limits of the Lords Day I. Proving, that the Lords Day doth begin with the natural morning, and that the morning of the natural day doth begin at mid-night; and so consequently that the Lords Day must both begin with the natural morning at mid-night, and end with the natural evening at mid-night. II. Proving, that the Jews beginning of the day at the sun-set evening was only in relation to the date of the person purified from his levitical uncleanness. III. That the Jews themselves did hold, that the natural day did continue after sun-set till mid-night. Part II. By William Pynchon Esq; Published by authority.

form_n until_o the_o light_n be_v first_o shape_v and_o form_v into_o a_o artificial_a day_n by_o its_o orderly_a shine_v upon_o the_o face_n of_o the_o earth_n for_o twelve_o hour_n together_o and_o then_o he_o call_v it_o day_n as_o the_o proper_a name_n of_o its_o perfect_a shape_n and_o form_n hence_o we_o may_v clear_o perceive_v that_o moses_n in_o gen._n 1._o 5._o do_v name_n all_o the_o part_n of_o the_o first_o natural_a day_n in_o their_o true_a priority_n of_o order_n as_o they_o be_v shape_v and_o form_v 1_o day_n 2_o night_n 3_o evening_n 4_o morning_n and_o second_o hence_o it_o follow_v that_o the_o first_o form_v part_n of_o the_o natural_a day_n be_v the_o artificial_a day_n and_o not_o the_o night_n chap._n ii_o prove_v that_o moses_n by_o the_o term_n evening_n in_o gen._n 1._o 5._o do_v not_o i_o a_o the_o whole_a night_n but_o the_o latter_a half_n of_o the_o artificial_a day_n and_o the_o first_o half_n of_o the_o night_n learned_a mr._n richardson_n say_v that_o these_o two_o word_n evening_n and_o morning_n do_v set_v our_o divine_n to_o school_n to_o find_v out_o what_o be_v mean_v by_o they_o in_o the_o first_o creation_n most_o interpreter_n say_v that_o the_o two_o hebrew_n word_n gnereb_n and_o boker_n which_o we_o translate_v evening_n and_o morning_n in_o gen._n 1._o 5._o do_v mean_v nothing_o else_o but_o night_n and_o day_n but_o i_o must_v crave_v leave_n to_o differ_v from_o they_o in_o judgement_n for_o these_o two_o reason_n reason_n i._n if_o moses_n have_v call_v the_o first_o darkness_n evening_n and_o the_o artificial_a day_n morning_n then_o in_o reason_n he_o will_v have_v place_v the_o say_a term_n in_o the_o same_o methodical_a order_n in_o the_o end_n of_o the_o verse_n as_o he_o have_v do_v in_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o say_a verse_n but_o he_o do_v place_v they_o in_o a_o contrary_a order_n for_o in_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o verse_n he_o name_v the_o day_n before_o the_o night_n but_o in_o the_o end_n 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 say_a term_n be_v so_o often_o repeat_v in_o the_o bible_n but_o though_o i_o have_v make_v diligent_a search_n yet_o i_o can_v find_v where_o the_o term_n morning_n be_v make_v synonimous_a to_o the_o full_a artificial_a day_n nor_o where_o the_o term_n evening_n be_v make_v synonimous_a to_o the_o whole_a night_n in_o a_o proper_a sense_n therefore_o see_v they_o be_v not_o where_o synonima_n it_o be_v altogether_o unlike_a that_o moses_n do_v make_v they_o synonima_n in_o gen._n 1._o 5._o and_o no_o where_o else_o object_n why_o may_v not_o the_o first_o darkness_n be_v a_o full_a evening_n and_o so_o a_o full_a night_n of_o twelve_o hour_n though_o it_o want_v a_o twilight_n in_o the_o begin_n of_o it_o may_v not_o god_n dispense_v with_o the_o twilight_n in_o the_o first_o night_n ans_fw-fr why_o do_v you_o go_v about_o to_o make_v the_o most_o wise_a creator_n and_o governor_n of_o all_o thing_n to_o be_v a_o imperfect_a artist_n in_o his_o first_o pattern_n for_o if_o you_o make_v the_o first_o night_n to_o want_v a_o twilight_n in_o the_o begin_n of_o it_o do_v you_o not_o thereby_o make_v he_o a_o imperfect_a artist_n in_o his_o first_o pattern_n to_o the_o other_o creation_n day_n for_o it_o be_v manifest_a that_o the_o shape_n and_o form_n of_o the_o first_o creation_n day_n be_v a_o true_a pattern_n by_o which_o the_o rest_n be_v shape_v and_o form_v for_o as_o the_o text_n express_v it_o in_o verse_n 5._o so_o be_v the_o morning_n and_o so_o be_v the_o evening_n the_o first_o day_n so_o in_o like_a sort_n it_o be_v say_v of_o the_o second_o day_n in_o verse_n 8._o and_o so_o it_o be_v say_v of_o the_o three_o day_n in_o verse_n 13._o and_o so_o it_o be_v say_v of_o the_o four_o day_n in_o verse_n 19_o and_o so_o it_o be_v say_v of_o the_o five_o and_o six_o day_n all_o these_o day_n be_v shape_v and_o form_v just_o according_a to_o the_o pattern_n of_o the_o first_o day_n the_o addition_n of_o the_o sun_n in_o the_o four_o day_n make_v no_o new_a part_n of_o light_n more_o than_o the_o first_o day_n have_v as_o i_o have_v note_v it_o already_o and_o therefore_o the_o manner_n how_o the_o light_n do_v break_v out_o of_o darkness_n on_o the_o first_o day_n be_v in_o the_o same_o manner_n and_o order_n as_o we_o see_v the_o sun_n do_v in_o the_o equinoctial_a 1_o the_o light_n ascend_v out_o of_o darkness_n by_o

to_o decline_v or_o go_v down_o by_o degree_n till_o it_o go_v out_o of_o the_o horizon_n 6_o then_o it_o make_v a_o twilight_n call_v the_o twilight_n of_o the_o evening_n prov._n 7._o 9_o 7_o then_o

go_v on_o towards_o the_o beginning_n of_o the_o second_o day_n in_o this_o admirable_a order_n do_v the_o god_n of_o nature_n set_v together_o all_o the_o part_n of_o the_o first_o natural_a day_n but_o i_o have_v again_o set_v it_o out_o more_o full_o in_o section_n 4._o object_n 2._o some_o learned_a man_n say_v that_o moses_n by_o the_o term_n evening_n and_o morning_n in_o gen._n 1._o 5._o mean_v night_n and_o day_n no_o otherwise_o but_o by_o the_o figure_n synecdoche_n only_o they_o say_v that_o the_o night_n be_v call_v evening_n no_o otherwise_o but_o because_o it_o be_v begin_v of_o the_o evening_n and_o that_o the_o artificial_a day_n be_v call_v morning_n no_o otherwise_o but_o because_o it_o be_v begin_v of_o the_o morning_n and_o so_o by_o this_o exposition_n they_o make_v no_o other_o part_n of_o time_n to_o be_v call_v evening_n but_o a_o little_a point_n of_o time_n only_o at_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o night_n all_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o night_n be_v call_v evening_n say_v they_o but_o by_o the_o figure_n synecdoche_n only_o in_o like_a manner_n they_o make_v no_o other_o part_n of_o the_o artificial_a day_n to_o be_v call_v morning_n but_o a_o little_a point_n of_o time_n in_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o artificial_a day_n only_o and_o this_o exposition_n they_o borrow_v from_o tremelius_fw-la annotation_n on_o gen._n 1._o 5._o or_o rather_o from_o junius_n for_o it_o be_v easy_a to_o make_v it_o appear_v that_o tremelius_fw-la be_v of_o another_o judgement_n ans_fw-fr a_o man_n have_v need_v of_o more_o patience_n then_o ordinary_a that_o shall_v spend_v his_o time_n to_o answer_v such_o fantastical_a conceit_n as_o this_o but_o in_o brief_a i_o think_v i_o have_v full_o confound_v this_o objection_n 1_o by_o prove_v that_o moses_n in_o gen._n 1._o 5._o divide_a the_o first_o natural_a day_n into_o two_o equal_a part_n two_o several_a way_n as_o i_o have_v exemplify_v it_o by_o the_o line_n of_o longitude_n and_o latitude_n on_o a_o compass_n dial_n in_o sect._n 4._o and_o see_v also_o the_o gradation_n to_o the_o morning_n in_o chap._n 3._o sect._n 2._o at_o sixthly_a 2_o i_o answer_v by_o prove_v that_o gnereb_n the_o evening_n be_v a_o connexion_n of_o the_o latter_a half_n of_o the_o artificial_a day_n to_o the_o first_o half_n of_o the_o night_n and_o so_o make_v it_o to_o be_v a_o equal_a part_n of_o time_n 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

of_o any_o other_o sabbath_n day_n 2_o this_o clause_n in_o the_o nine_o day_n of_o the_o month_n in_o the_o evening_n be_v thus_o read_v by_o the_o greek_a interpreter_n from_o the_o nine_o of_o the_o month_n from_o the_o evening_n and_o thus_o they_o vary_v the_o preposition_n from_o in_o to_o from_o and_o their_o translation_n agree_v fit_o to_o the_o next_o clause_n from_o even_o unto_o even_o you_o shall_v rest_v your_o sabbath_n and_o by_o this_o read_n we_o may_v see_v that_o the_o seventy_o do_v make_v the_o latter_a evening_n of_o the_o nine_o day_n to_o be_v a_o true_a part_n of_o the_o nine_o day_n though_o it_o be_v also_o the_o beginning_n of_o the_o ten_o day_n according_a to_o the_o date_n of_o the_o person_n purify_v 3_o hence_o it_o be_v also_o evident_a that_o moses_n do_v not_o hold_v the_o natural_a beginning_n of_o the_o ten_o day_n to_o begin_v at_o the_o sunset_n evening_n of_o the_o nine_o day_n for_o then_o moses_n word_n shall_v have_v run_v thus_o from_o the_o ten_o of_o the_o month_n from_o the_o evening_n but_o moses_n do_v not_o say_v so_o but_o from_o the_o nine_o of_o the_o month_n from_o the_o evening_n either_o he_o must_v mean_v it_o to_o begin_v from_o the_o sacrifice-evening_n of_o the_o nine_o day_n as_o maymony_n expound_v it_o or_o second_o from_o the_o latter_a evening_n of_o the_o nine_o day_n as_o a_o true_a part_n of_o the_o nine_o day_n as_o the_o seventy_o understand_v it_o or_o three_o from_o the_o ceremonial_a beginning_n of_o the_o nine_o day_n which_o begin_v at_o the_o sunset_n evening_n before_o the_o nine_o day_n but_o then_o 4_o if_o you_o will_v take_v this_o phrase_n from_o even_o to_o even_o to_o be_v from_o the_o evening_n of_o the_o nine_o day_n according_a to_o the_o date_n of_o the_o person_n purify_v than_o all_o the_o nine_o day_n must_v be_v a_o fast_a day_n as_o well_o as_o the_o ten_o day_n for_o the_o evening_n of_o the_o nine_o day_n be_v the_o begin_n of_o the_o nine_o day_n according_a to_o the_o date_n of_o the_o person_n purify_v but_o if_o you_o desire_v to_o avoid_v this_o gross_a absurdity_n than_o you_o must_v grant_v that_o the_o natural_a evening_n of_o the_o nine_o day_n do_v not_o begin_v but_o end_v the_o nine_o day_n as_o the_o seventy_o interpreter_n do_v carry_v it_o 5_o they_o that_o do_v place_n the_o natural_a evening_n at_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o nine_o day_n and_o yet_o do_v allow_v the_o sacrifice_n evening_n to_o be_v place_v at_o the_o end_n of_o the_o nine_o day_n they_o do_v thereby_o place_v the_o natural_a morning_n of_o the_o nine_o day_n between_o the_o two_o evening_n of_o the_o nine_o day_n and_o so_o they_o do_v make_v the_o morning_n sacrifice_n to_o be_v kill_v between_o the_o two_o evening_n but_o when_o man_n will_v not_o receive_v the_o truth_n in_o the_o love_n of_o it_o it_o be_v just_a with_o god_n to_o let_v they_o run_v into_o such_o absurd_a consequence_n as_o these_o 6_o this_o fasting-day_n be_v long_o than_o any_o other_o fasting-day_n for_o be_v no_o fasting-day_n among_o the_o jew_n be_v so_o long_o as_o the_o fast_a on_o the_o day_n of_o atonement_n be_v all_o other_o public_a fast_a

of_o the_o land_n as_o well_o as_o at_o the_o temple_n but_o they_o do_v not_o enjoin_v they_o to_o begin_v those_o fast_a day_n in_o the_o evening_n before_o with_o such_o a_o strict_a abstinence_n as_o they_o do_v the_o day_n of_o reconciliation_n for_o the_o hebrew_n doctor_n say_v that_o it_o be_v lawful_a for_o they_o to_o eat_v in_o the_o night_n when_o the_o feast_n be_v on_o the_o

in_o the_o evening_n before_o except_o the_o day_n of_o reconciliation_n only_o therefore_o no_o other_o public_a fasting-day_n be_v of_o such_o a_o length_n as_o this_o yearly_a fasting-day_n be_v 7_o neither_o be_v any_o other_o sabbath_n of_o such_o a_o length_n for_o strict_a rest_n as_o this_o fasting-sabbath_n be_v for_o they_o must_v begin_v the_o strict_a rest_n of_o this_o day_n either_o in_o the_o sacrifice_n evening_n of_o the_o nine_o day_n or_o at_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o latter_a evening_n of_o the_o nine_o but_o they_o do_v not_o begin_v the_o strict_a rest_n neither_o of_o their_o festival_n sabbath_n nor_o 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

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 and_o he_o be_v to_o be_v rebuke_v and_o to_o be_v make_v to_o leave_v off_o by_o force_n though_o he_o be_v not_o for_o it_o to_o be_v

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

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

of_o this_o day_n to_o be_v a_o extraordinary_a long_a fasting-sabbath_n hence_o i_o conclude_v that_o the_o beginning_n of_o this_o day_n can_v be_v allege_v as_o a_o exemplary_a pattern_n neither_o

neh._n 13._o 19_o they_o expound_v the_o word_n before_o and_o the_o word_n dark_a in_o favour_n of_o their_o opinion_n thus_o 1._o the_o word_n before_o the_o sabbath_n they_o say_v do_v mean_a just_a before_o the_o face_n or_o present_a beginning_n of_o the_o sabbath_n 2._o the_o word_n dark_n they_o say_v do_v mean_a when_o it_o be_v full_a twilight_n namely_o when_o the_o darkness_n in_o the_o sky_n be_v somewhat_o more_o than_o the_o light_n in_o the_o sky_n for_o as_o long_o as_o the_o light_n in_o the_o sky_n be_v more_o than_o darkness_n they_o say_v the_o sun_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o it_o and_o hence_o they_o conclude_v that_o the_o sun_n can_v be_v say_v to_o be_v set_v till_o the_o darkness_n in_o the_o sky_n be_v more_o in_o quantity_n than_o the_o light_n in_o the_o sky_n and_o this_o they_o make_v to_o be_v the_o punctual_a time_n of_o the_o sunset_n evening_n when_o the_o jew_n sabbath_n begin_v namely_o when_o a_o man_n can_v not_o see_v to_o read_v or_o a_o woman_n

doubtless_o luke_n phrase_n do_v allude_v to_o that_o custom_n this_o sabbath_n that_o do_v now_o begin_v to_o lighten_v be_v not_o the_o sabbath_n itself_o for_o if_o the_o sabbath_n itself_o have_v
