that_o day_n or_o hour_n wherein_o some_o great_a good_a have_v befall_v they_o 14._o and_o contrariwise_a to_o curse_v that_o day_n that_o bring_v woe_n jer._n 10._o 14._o thus_o god_n have_v feel_v as_o it_o be_v the_o sweetness_n of_o rest_n on_o the_o seven_o day_n in_o comparison_n of_o his_o labour_n in_o the_o six_o former_a and_o be_v well_o refresh_v be_v hereupon_o move_v to_o bless_v and_o sanctify_v it_o answer_n you_o say_v its_o probable_a god_n pronounce_v the_o sabbath_n sanctify_v at_o the_o end_n thereof_o when_o he_o have_v rest_v which_o for_o my_o part_n i_o assent_v unto_o for_o ●o_o in_o the_o 2_o gen._n 3._o it_o appear_v to_o be_v most_o likely_a beside_o that_o moses_n his_o manner_n of_o expression_n in_o that_o verse_n compare_v with_o the_o like_a in_o the_o first_o chapter_n do_v much_o persuade_v it_o for_o you_o shall_v find_v there_o that_o when_o he_o have_v relate_v god_n five_o and_o six_o day_n work_v as_o finish_v and_o complete_v by_o he_o then_o follow_v the_o blessing_n upon_o they_o so_o in_o this_o second_o chapter_n he●_n make_v the_o blessing_n to_o follow_v upon_o his_o rest_v as_o before_o upon_o his_o work_n but_o what_o you_o will_v gather_v hence_o i_o do_v not_o well_o perceive_v yet_o two_o thing_n in_o my_o opinion_n follow_v very_o natural_o 1._o that_o hereby_o god_n will_v give_v to_o adam_n as_o well_o a_o precedent_n as_o a_o precept_n to_o regulate_v and_o invite_v his_o subsequent_a duty_n in_o the_o particular_a of_o the_o sabbath_n that_o see_v god_n have_v choose_v the_o seven_o day_n to_o finish_v his_o creation_n in_o and_o to_o rest_v there_o from_o and_o have_v thus_o make_v it_o know_v to_o adam_n with_o a_o promise_n of_o a_o blessing_n thereunto_o for_o aftertime_n upon_o due_a observance_n that_o therefore_o adam_n and_o his_o posterity_n shall_v be_v move_v thereby_o to_o dedicate_v the_o seven_o day_n from_o the_o sublunary_a employment_n of_o the_o other_o six_o to_o be_v a_o perpetual_a sabbath_n unto_o the_o lord_n not_o by_o a_o bare_a rest_n for_o what_o honour_n have_v god_n by_o that_o but_o by_o a_o sanctify_a rest_n 2._o that_o it_o be_v not_o mean_v that_o adam_n shall_v keep_v the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n which_o god_n rest_v on_o for_o though_o it_o be_v god_n seven_o day_n yet_o it_o be_v adam_n second_o day_n which_o be_v another_o reason_n to_o prove_v your_o probability_n for_o it_o be_v likely_a that_o god_n himself_o do_v first_o rest_v the_o seven_o day_n that_o so_o he_o may_v by_o his_o example_n be_v reveal_v to_o that_o end_n give_v mankind_n a_o pattern_n for_o ever_o after_o to_o do_v the_o like_a which_o be_v very_o apparent_a and_o more_o confirm_v by_o the_o law_n concern_v the_o sabbath_n as_o it_o be_v afterward_o renew_v upon_o mount_n sinai_n to_o the_o israelite_n where_o we_o be_v command_v after_o six_o day_n labour_n to_o dedicate_v a_o seven_o to_o holiness_n &_o to_o that_o end_n to_o rest_n from_o our_o work_n on_o the_o seven_o day_n as_o god_n do_v from_o he_o that_o so_o by_o follow_v his_o example_n we_o may_v the_o better_o obey_v his_o commandment_n not_o that_o we_o be_v to_o rest_v the_o selfsame_o day_n that_o he_o do_v but_o only_o in_o similitude_n and_o imitation_n that_o be_v to_o employ_v six_o day_n in_o our_o necessary_a labour_n and_o the_o seven_o to_o rest_v according_a to_o his_o example_n that_o so_o we_o may_v sanctify_v it_o according_a to_o his_o commandment_n sabbath_n commandment_n which_o adam_n have_v not_o do_v if_o he_o have_v ke●t_a god_n seven_o day_n sabbath_n which_o argument_n do●h_v much_o disprove_v that_o over-strict_a tie_v the_o sabbath_n to_o the_o precise_a seven_o day_n after_o the_o creation_n and_o prove_v the_o ●umerall_a day_n to_o be_v only_o moral_a and_o perpetual_a or_o the_o proportion_n of_o time_n which_o the_o lord_n exemplifi_v there_o which_o be_v the_o seven_o day_n for_o number_n not_o that_o

number_n and_o proportion_n of_o time_n according_a to_o the_o commandment_n the_o substance_n of_o the_o reason_n which_o constitute_v the_o commandment_n still_o remain_v entire_a to_o wit_n god_n

the_o powerful_a work_n of_o creation_n much_o more_o from_o the_o painful_a work_n of_o redemption_n broad_n 3._o when_o god_n first_o command_v man_n to_o sanctify_v the_o seven_o day_n it_o be_v

why_o shall_v not_o the_o word_n bless_v import_v also_o command_v adam_n to_o bless_v it_o and_o it_o be_v one_o thing_n for_o god_n to_o sanctify_v a_o day_n and_o another_o thing_n to_o command_v man_n to_o sanctify_v it_o indeed_o it_o be_v probable_a that_o this_o example_n of_o god_n in_o work_v six_o day_n and_o rest_v the_o seven_o adam_n and_o his_o posterity_n shall_v always_o have_v follow_v have_v they_o continue_v in_o the_o state_n of_o innocency_n but_o when_o adam_n have_v now_o eat_v of_o the_o forbid_a fruit_n god_n thrust_v he_o out_o of_o paradise_n curse_v the_o earth_n for_o his_o sake_n and_o set_v he_o to_o get_v his_o live_n in_o the_o sweat_n of_o his_o face_n answer_n you_o say_v it_o be_v not_o say_v in_o scripture_n that_o god_n present_o command_v adam_n to_o sanctify_v the_o seven_o day_n and_o that_o it_o be_v one_o thing_n for_o god_n to_o sanctify_v a_o day_n and_o another_o thing_n for_o he_o to_o command_v man_n to_o sanctify_v it_o to_o which_o i_o answer_v that_o god_n here_o at_o the_o institution_n of_o the_o sabbath_n do_v as_o christ_n by_o his_o apostle_n do_v at_o the_o institution_n of_o the_o lordsday_n that_o be_v by_o a_o declaratory_a example_n appoint_v it_o as_o a_o duty_n unto_o the_o church_n for_o ever_o after_o teach_v they_o to_o set_v aside_o the_o seven_o day_n which_o be_v then_o the_o last_o and_o be_v

there_o any_o difference_n in_o this_o case_n between_o god_n sanctify_v it_o and_o his_o command_v it_o to_o be_v sanctify_v by_o man_n for_o beside_o that_o to_o sanctify_v ever_o signify_v to_o set_v apart_o to_o a_o holy_a use_n we_o see_v it_o to_o be_v the_o very_a voice_n of_o of_o the_o scripture_n how_o that_o the_o sabbath_n be_v make_v for_o man_n that_o be_v for_o his_o good_a and_o benefit_n for_o man_n be_v to_o learn_v from_o it_o that_o all_o his_o happiness_n consist_v not_o in_o his_o own_o labour_n but_o also_o in_o god_n blessing_n so_o that_o though_o he_o labour_v six_o day_n together_o yet_o the_o seven_o day_n well_o observe_v may_v do_v he_o more_o avail_v then_o all_o his_o six_o day_n labour_n and_o therefore_o by_o god_n blessing_n that_o day_n be_v imply_v a_o

that_o we_o shall_v superstitious_o think_v any_o inherent_a holiness_n or_o blessedness_n to_o be_v in_o the_o very_a day_n itself_o and_o if_o not_o what_o follow_v then_o but_o that_o it_o must_v
