of_o gather_a manna_n can_v not_o be_v a_o epocha_n for_o the_o six_n of_o their_o six_o work_a day_n original_o before_o their_o sabbath_n for_o if_o it_o be_v not_o a_o epocha_n to_o the_o one_o

the_o lord_n make_v heaven_n and_o earth_n the_o sea_n and_o all_o that_o in_o they_o be_v and_o rest_v the_o seventh-day_n wherefore_o the_o lord_n bless_v the_o sabbath-day_n and_o hallow_v it_o

with_o the_o morning_n day_n light_n for_o the_o jew_n begin_v their_o sabbath_n at_o even_o contrary_a to_o adam_n pattern_n as_o there_o be_v reason_n from_o scripture_n to_o believe_v and_o if_o

moysaicall_a precept_n i_o answer_v 1._o it_o be_v not_o expressy_a say_v that_o adam_n first_o sabbath_n be_v his_o first-day_n sabbath_n 2.27_o mark_v 2.27_o but_o yet_o see_v christ_n have_v say_v the_o sabbath_n be_v make_v for_o man_n and_o that_o none_o can_v deny_v but_o that_o adam_n be_v bind_v in_o duty_n to_o god_n to_o observe_v god_n seven_o day_n sabbath_n wherein_o he_o rest_v from_o his_o work_n of_o creation_n than_o we_o may_v insist_v on_o the_o sufficiency_n of_o our_o evidence_n for_o adam_n beginning_n his_o sabbath_n in_o the_o morning_n it_o be_v so_o rational_o

none_o will_v affirm_v or_o else_o he_o be_v bind_v in_o duty_n to_o keep_v his_o sabbath_n before_o his_o six_o work_a day_n on_o god_n seventh-day_n of_o rest_n and_o then_o it_o be_v adam_n

for_o man_n to_o sabbatise_v or_o keep_v a_o sabbath_n the_o one_o be_v to_o abstain_v from_o work_n that_o he_o may_v devote_v himself_o to_o worship_n his_o creator_n the_o other_o be_v to_o rest_n

they_o yet_o it_o be_v their_o moral_a duty_n to_o abstain_v from_o work_n and_o to_o dedicate_v that_o very_a day_n to_o attribute_v their_o praise_n and_o worship_n to_o he_o for_o we_o find_v by_o

of_o those_o then_o it_o be_v say_v they_o all_o shout_v for_o joy_n and_o i_o observe_v from_o the_o text_n that_o as_o this_o can_v not_o be_v precise_o at_o the_o same_o instant_n when_o the_o

be_v no_o reason_n to_o understand_v the_o text_n of_o any_o time_n after_o the_o fall_n of_o man_n for_o then_o the_o enmity_n of_o the_o evil_a angel_n against_o god_n will_v rather_o excite_v

between_o the_o finish_n of_o the_o creation_n and_o the_o fall_n and_o there_o be_v reason_n to_o believe_v that_o so_o it_o be_v for_o why_o shall_v we_o imagine_v that_o god_n shall_v create_v
