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

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

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 evening_n by_o gnarbaiim_a the_o two_o evening_n eleven_o time_n over_o and_o the_o reason_n be_v because_o the_o full_a natural_a evening_n have_v two_o part_n namely_o the_o first_o half_a be_v day_n and_o the_o latter_a half_n be_v night_n as_o i_o shall_v open_v the_o

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

himself_o be_v in_o the_o forenoon_n or_o in_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o afternoon_n at_o bethany_n when_o he_o send_v two_o of_o his_o disciple_n to_o jerusalem_n to_o prepare_v the_o passeover_n

17._o how_o can_v you_o prove_v that_o the_o passeover-supper_n be_v celebrate_v in_o the_o night_n of_o the_o fourteen_o day_n see_v you_o confess_v that_o the_o fifteen_o day_n begin_v that_o

the_o answer_n be_v he_o must_v bathe_v or_o baptise_v himself_o in_o water_n at_o the_o look_v forth_o of_o the_o evening_n that_o be_v to_o say_v in_o the_o afternoon_n and_o what_o then_o may_v he_o then_o carry_v his_o lamb_n to_o the_o temple_n to_o be_v sacrifice_v no_o he_o may_v not_o yet_o go_v himself_o to_o the_o temple_n because_o his_o cleanse_n be_v not_o full_o complete_a but_o yet_o he_o may_v join_v with_o other_o and_o cause_v other_o to_o kill_v the_o passeover_n for_o he_o because_o he_o be_v now_o in_o his_o first_o degree_n of_o cleanse_v and_o then_o as_o soon_o as_o the_o sun_n be_v full_o go_v down_o upon_o he_o he_o be_v full_o clean_a and_o then_o he_o begin_v the_o date_n of_o his_o day_n of_o cleanness_n and_o then_o as_o soon_o as_o three_o star_n appear_v

bear_v the_o date_n of_o the_o same_o day_n with_o the_o say_a sacrifice_n 1_o because_o the_o act_n of_o feast_v receive_v no_o new_a degree_n of_o cleanness_n at_o sunset_n as_o the_o person_n
