of_o their_o estate_n how_o god_n have_v prosper_v they_o i_o have_v show_v before_o the_o apostle_n command_v this_o survey_n and_o a_o lay_n by_o themselves_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d against_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n we_o ask_v why_o against_o that_o day_n more_o than_o another_o but_o that_o it_o be_v a_o day_n when_o the_o church_n use_v to_o meet_v and_o they_o may_v have_v

they_o be_v no_o sabbath_n work_v but_o there_o be_v no_o need_n as_o i_o have_v say_v we_o shall_v so_o translate_v it_o nor_o do_v i_o think_v it_o the_o sense_n that_o the_o lay_v aside_o shall_v

will_v our_o brethren_n so_o fond_a of_o this_o notion_n will_v make_v we_o believe_v that_o the_o strength_n of_o our_o argument_n from_o this_o text_n lie_v that_o we_o think_v that_o the_o apostle_n here_o direct_v a_o collection_n on_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n whereas_o we_o tell_v they_o that_o if_o it_o be_v so_o plain_a as_o if_o write_v with_o a_o sun_n beam_n we_o do_v not_o think_v that_o will_v prove_v it_o a_o collection_n for_o the_o saint_n be_v a_o pious_a and_o charitable_a work_n but_o may_v be_v do_v or_o direct_v on_o any_o day_n but_o this_o be_v that_o we_o urge_v from_o the_o text_n it_o be_v plain_a from_o holy_a writ_n that_o the_o apostle_n give_v a_o peculiar_a honour_n to_o this_o day_n more_o than_o to_o any_o other_o day_n of_o the_o week_n though_o on_o the_o seven_o day_n the_o apostle_n so_o long_o as_o the_o jewish_a rite_n be_v indulge_v or_o so_o long_a as_o they_o have_v any_o hope_n to_o convince_v the_o jew_n when_o they_o come_v where_o the_o jew_n have_v synagogue_n go_v in_o and_o hear_v with_o they_o yea_o and_o preach_v to_o they_o yet_o 1._o they_o never_o meet_v in_o a_o perfect_a congregation_n of_o christian_n on_o that_o day_n that_o we_o read_v of_o but_o on_o the_o lord_n day_n they_o do_v act._n 20.7_o 2._o the_o apostle_n ordain_v their_o gospel_n sacrifice_n their_o collection_n for_o the_o poor_a saint_n at_o jerusalem_n rather_o against_o this_o day_n than_o any_o other_o but_o possible_o we_o may_v find_v that_o as_o the_o apostle_n unquestionable_o by_o direction_n from_o
