Sanctification, are clearly discussed, which were first handled more largely in sundry sermons in Cambridge in New-England in opening of the Fourth COmmandment : in unfolding whereof many scriptures are cleared, divers cases of conscience resolved, and the morall law as a rule of life to a believer, occasionally and distinctly handled / by Thomas Shepard ...

time_n to_o be_v sanctify_v rather_o than_o a_o five_o a_o four_o or_o a_o nine_o not_o simple_o because_o it_o be_v this_o seven_o or_o a_o seven_o but_o because_o in_o his_o wise_a determination_n thereof_o he_o know_v it_o to_o be_v the_o most_o just_a and_o equal_a division_n of_o time_n between_o man_n and_o himself_o and_o therefore_o i_o know_v no_o incongruity_n to_o affirm_v that_o if_o

out_o of_o a_o seven_o but_o have_v now_o fix_v they_o to_o a_o seven_o a_o seven_o day_n be_v therefore_o moral_a rather_o than_o a_o four_o or_o six_o or_o nine_o day_n because_o it_o be_v the_o most_o equal_a and_o fit_a proportion_n of_o time_n all_o thing_n consider_v between_o god_n and_o man_n the_o appointment_n therefore_o of_o a_o seven_o rather_o then_o a_o six_o or_o four_o be_v not_o a_o act_n of_o god_n mere_a will_n only_o as_o our_o adversary_n affirm_v and_o therefore_o they_o think_v it_o not_o moral_a but_o it_o be_v and_o be_v a_o act_n of_o his_o wisdom_n also_o according_a to_o a_o moral_a rule_n of_o justice_n viz._n to_o give_v unto_o god_n that_o which_o be_v most_o fit_a most_o just_a and_o most_o equal_a and_o therefore_o although_o there_o be_v no_o natural_a justice_n as_o mr_n primrose_n call_v it_o in_o a_o seven_o simple_o and_o abstract_o consider_v rather_o than_o in_o a_o six_o or_o ten_o yet_o if_o the_o most_o equal_a proportion_n of_o

have_v they_o then_o to_o observe_v and_o that_o be_v that_o seven_o which_o do_v succeed_v the_o six_o day_n labour_n and_o therefore_o for_o any_o to_o make_v god_n example_n of_o rest_n on_o that_o seven_o day_n a_o argument_n that_o god_n command_v the_o observation_n of_o that_o seven_o day_n only_o be_v a_o groundless_a assertion_n for_o there_o be_v something_o more_o general_o aim_v at_o

find_v man_n duty_n 1._o more_o general_o set_v down_o viz._n to_o labour_v six_o day_n and_o dedicate_v the_o seven_o unto_o god_n and_o then_o follow_v god_n persuasion_n hereunto_o from_o his_o

it_o may_v then_o carry_v a_o fair_a face_n as_o if_o this_o example_n point_v at_o the_o observation_n of_o that_o particular_a seven_o only_a but_o look_v as_o our_o six_o day_n labour_n be_v

from_o the_o creation_n shall_v be_v the_o sabbath_n for_o the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n be_v to_o be_v man_n rest_n day_n it_o be_v therefore_o suitable_a to_o god_n wisdom_n to_o give_v man_n a_o

suppose_v labour_n to_o go_v before_o hence_o god_n can_v not_o appoint_v the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o creation_n to_o be_v the_o sabbath_n because_o he_o do_v then_o but_o begin_v his_o labour_n
