A91155 A briefe polemicall dissertation, concerning the true time of the inchoation and determination of the Lordsday-Sabbath. Wherein is clearly and irrefragably manifested by Scripture, reason, authorities, in all ages till this present: that the Lordsday begins and ends at evening; and ought to be solemnized from evening to evening: against the novel errours, mistakes of such, who groundlesly assert; that it begins and ends at midnight, or day-breaking; and ought to be sanctified from midnight to midnight, or morning to morning: whose arguments are here examined, refuted as unsound, absurd, frivolous. Compiled in the Tower of London, and now published, for the information, reformation of all contrary judgment or practise. By William Prynne of Swainswick Esq;. Prynne, William, 1600-1669. 1654 (1654) Wing P3916; Thomason E814_11 82,955 107

doubt_n will_v be_v what_o evening_n this_o be_v whether_o that_o which_o we_o call_v sunday_n night_n as_o many_o erroneous_o mistake_v or_o saturday_n night_n which_o be_v the_o lordsday_n night_n if_o any_o for_o my_o own_o part_n i_o conceive_v clear_o that_o it_o be_v upon_o saturday_n night_n as_o we_o false_o call_v it_o not_o the_o ensue_a sunday_n night_n for_o admit_v the_o lordsday_n be_v then_o institute_v for_o a_o sabbath_n which_o those_o of_o the_o opposite_a opinion_n grant_v and_o i_o consent_v to_o there_o will_v be_v no_o great_a question_n of_o it_o 1._o because_o if_o the_o christian_n at_o troas_n observe_v this_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n as_o their_o sabbath_n no_o doubt_n but_o this_o their_o meeting_n to_o solemnize_v it_o and_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n on_o it_o be_v rather_o that_o evening_n which_o begin_v than_o that_o which_o end_v the_o lordsday_n in_o their_o account_n else_o they_o shall_v have_v begin_v its_o solemnization_n only_o when_o it_o end_v whi●h_n be_v improbable_a but_o our_o sunday_n evening_n on_o which_o some_o affirm_v this_o meeting_n end_v not_o commence_v the_o lordsday_n in_o their_o account_n they_o ever_o begin_v their_o day_n the_o evening_n before_o as_o the_o premise_n manifest_a therefore_o this_o assembly_n be_v on_o our_o saturday_n evening_n there_o be_v no_o mention_n of_o any_o meeting_n the_o day_n or_o evening_n before_o 2._o because_o the_o christian_n in_o the_o next_o succeed_a age_n as_o i_o shall_v prove_v by_o the_o follow_a testimony_n do_v ever_o begin_v their_o lordsday_n assembly_n and_o solemnity_n on_o saturday_n evening_n solemnize_n it_o from_o evening_n to_o evening_n because_o the_o first_o observer_n of_o it_o do_v so_o therefore_o it_o be_v more_o than_o probable_a that_o these_o christian_n at_o troas_n do_v so_o too_o 3._o because_o saint_n luke_n record_v that_o it_o be_v upon_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n when_o this_o meeting_n be_v and_o this_o sermon_n of_o paul_n make_v therefore_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v on_o the_o saturday_n not_o on_o our_o sunday_n evening_n since_o the_o sunday_n evening_n in_o s._n luke_n and_o scripture_n account_n be_v no_o part_n of_o the_o first_o but_o of_o the_o second_o day_n the_o day_n ever_o beginning_n and_o end_n at_o evening_n in_o their_o computation_n as_o the_o premise_n evidence_n 4._o all_o my_o opposite_n confess_v that_o the_o disciple_n meet_v at_o this_o time_n upon_o the_o first_o day_n of_o purpose_n to_o sanctify_v it_o for_o a-sabbath_n and_o can_v they_o then_o think_v that_o they_o will_v defer_v their_o meeting_n till_o our_o sunday_n evening_n when_o all_o the_o day_n in_o their_o account_n and_o the_o best_a the_o chief_a part_n of_o it_o in_o their_o compute_v who_o begin_v it_o at_o midnight_n or_o morning_n be_v expire_v certain_o this_o have_v be_v to_o make_v the_o lordsday_n no_o festival_n day_n at_o all_o or_o at_o most_o not_o so_o much_o as_o a_o half-holy_a day_n which_o we_o can_v presume_v these_o disciple_n and_o s._n paul_n will_v dodid_v they_o observe_v it_o as_o their_o sabbath_n from_o all_o which_o reason_n i_o may_v more_o than_o probable_o conclude_v that_o it_o be_v the_o saturday_n evening_n when_o the_o lordsday_n begin_v not_o the_o sunday_n night_n when_o it_o end_v when_o this_o divine_a assembly_n be_v keep_v the_o rather_o because_o they_o receive_v not_o the_o sacrament_n nor_o break_v this_o bread_n till_o after_o midnight_n as_o the_o text_n affirm_v and_o so_o after_o the_o lordsday_n end_v even_o in_o the_o account_n of_o such_o who_o affirm_v it_o end_n at_o midnight_n and_o because_o this_o beginning_n of_o their_o assembly_n when_o the_o day_n begin_v make_v most_o for_o the_o apostolical_a divine_a institution_n and_o sanctification_n of_o the_o lord_n day_n for_o the_o which_o this_o text_n will_v little_o avail_v if_o this_o assembly_n on_o it_o be_v on_o our_o sunday_n night_n when_o the_o day_n be_v either_o whole_o or_o for_o the_o most_o part_n expire_v and_o so_o this_o meeting_n no_o warrant_n for_o its_o total_a sanctification_n but_o against_o this_o it_o will_v be_v object_v first_o that_o saint_n paul_n depart_v from_o tro●_n the_o very_a next_o morning_n at_o daybreak_n objection_n which_o he_o will_v not_o have_v do_v have_v it_o be_v part_n of_o
