another_o word_n use_v to_o signify_v festival_n day_n yet_o you_o can_v deny_v but_o it_o be_v frequent_a to_o name_v their_o festival_n sabbath_n because_o of_o the_o rest_n and_o analogy_n which_o

sense_n of_o this_o text_n as_o may_v probable_o appear_v by_o these_o follow_a reason_n which_o you_o so_o slight_o evade_v 1._o because_o it_o be_v sabbath_n in_o the_o plural_a number_n for_o the_o greek_a word_n 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d where_o it_o signify_v the_o weekly_a sabbath_n and_o not_o the_o week_n itself_o be_v for_o most_o part_n either_o express_v in_o the_o singular_a

translate_v both_o in_o english_a and_o latin_a but_o in_o this_o 2._o coloss_n 16._o there_o be_v none_o of_o all_o these_o 2._o because_o sabbath_n be_v adjoin_v with_o such_o thing_n in_o this_o place_n of_o the_o coloss_n which_o be_v indisputable_o abrogative_n and_o mere_o jewish_a sheweth_z jewish_a such_o as_o be_v term_v in_o the_o 14_o verse_n the_o handwriting_n of_o ordinance_n and_o in_o the_o 17_o verse_n be_v term_v the_o shadow_n of_o such_o thing_n to_o come_v who_o body_n be_v of_o christ_n that_o be_v which_o be_v fulfil_v in_o christ_n and_o who_o signification_n end_v when_o he_o come_v but_o we_o know_v the_o signification_n as_o you_o yourself_o confess_v out_o of_o 4._o heb_fw-mi of_o the_o sabbath_n rest_v be_v heaven_n our_o rest_n there_o which_o remain_v unfulfil_v yet_o to_o the_o people_n of_o god_n as_o the_o same_o 4._o heb_fw-mi sheweth_z and_o therefore_o be_v these_o the_o likely_a to_o be_v such_o for_o as_o dr._n andrew_n say_v of_o the_o sabbath_n how_o that_o it_o have_v be_v folly_n to_o have_v put_v a_o ceremonial_a law_n among_o the_o moral_a so_o say_v i_o in_o this_o case_n that_o it_o be_v strange_a if_o god_n who_o be_v the_o god_n of_o order_n and_o not_o of_o confusion_n shall_v by_o his_o apostle_n in_o this_o place_n mix_v one_o of_o the_o ten_o moral_a commandment_n with_o the_o hand_n write_v of_o ordinance_n thing_n mere_o ceremonial_a and_o abrogate_a to_o which_o two_o reason_n i_o add_v these_o which_o follow_v 1._o the_o apostle_n himself_o do_v condescend_v to_o keep_v the_o weekly_a sabbath_n with_o the_o jew_n not_o only_o for_o a_o time_n as_o he_o do_v some_o of_o the_o jewish_a holiday_n as_o also_o their_o other_o rite_n but_o at_o all_o time_n and_o in_o all_o place_n as_o occasion_v offer_v as_o be_v a_o thing_n of_o a_o different_a nature_n from_o their_o sabbath_n which_o he_o teach_v 2._o these_o three_o holiday_n new-moone_n and_o sabbath_n be_v but_o as_o i_o may_v so_o say_v synonimy_n in_o sense_n signify_v as_o it_o be_v one_o and_o the_o same_o thing_n in_o the_o intention_n of_o the_o apostle_n by_o divers_a expression_n for_o be_v not_o new_a moon_n holiday_n and_o holiday_n sabbath_n so_o that_o if_o you_o disp●●e_v from_o a_o seem_a tautology_n you_o may_v as_o well_o argue_v against_o new-moone_n as_o sabbath_n and_o i_o will_v know_v why_o holiday_n and_o sabbath_n may_v not_o be_v as_o well_o one_o and_o the_o same_o in_o this_o place_n of_o the_o coloss_n as_o in_o the_o 58._o isa_n 13._o both_o of_o they_o in_o the_o one_o place_n signify_v the_o weekly_a sabbath_n and_o in_o the_o other_o place_n the_o jewish_a sabbath_n which_o synominy_n do_v the_o rather_o appear_v from_o that_o 4._o gal_n 16_o which_o be_v the_o same_o in_o effect_n with_o this_o of_o the_o coloss_n where_o the_o apostle_n by_o day_n month_n time_n and_o year_n mean_v thing_n of_o the_o same_o nature_n and_o ordination_n to_o wit_n the_o jewish_a abrogate_a type_n and_o ceremony_n such_o as_o begin_v with_o man_n fall_n or_o rather_o with_o moses_n and_o end_v with_o christ_n resurrection_n unto_o which_o the_o convert_a gentile_n do_v too_o much_o adhere_v not_o such_o as_o begin_v in_o paradise_n and_o shall_v end_v in_o heaven_n but_o whereas_o it_o may_v be_v object_v that_o doubtless_o have_v not_o the_o apostle_n intend_v all_o sabbath_n in_o the_o word_n plural_a he_o will_v have_v make_v some_o particular_a exception_n of_o the_o weekly_a sabbath_n consider_v how_o considerable_a it_o be_v so_o to_o do_v if_o he_o will_v have_v have_v the_o
