for_o adam_n and_o his_o posterity_n in_o innocence_n my_o reason_n be_v first_o because_o all_o the_o patriarch_n from_o adam_n to_o moses_n do_v not_o keep_v the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n which_o

moses_n as_o well_o as_o other_o thing_n especial_o consider_v the_o great_a occasion_n which_o he_o have_v to_o defend_v the_o antiquity_n of_o the_o sabbath_n from_o the_o great_a reproach_n that_o be_v cast_v upon_o it_o by_o appion_n of_o alexandria_n who_o tell_v the_o jew_n that_o their_o sabbath_n be_v derive_v from_o the_o egyptian_a word_n sabbo_n which_o signify_v a_o disease_n in_o the_o privy_a part_n which_o say_v he_o the_o jew_n be_v smite_v with_o after_o they_o have_v travel_v six_o day_n from_o egypt_n whereupon_o they_o be_v force_v to_o rest_v the_o seventh-day_n and_o therefore_o call_v it_o a_o sabbath_n from_o the_o name_n of_o the_o disease_n which_o they_o call_v sabbo_n now_o josephus_n can_v not_o have_v a_o better_a argument_n to_o have_v vindicate_v the_o jew_n sabbath_n against_o appion_n foul_a aspersion_n but_o by_o show_v to_o the_o world_n that_o the_o sabbath_n be_v keep_v from_o the_o creation_n of_o the_o world_n unto_o that_o time_n and_o

with_o the_o sabbath_n isa_n 1._o be_v to_o be_v perform_v upon_o the_o sabbath_n day_n any_o more_o than_o the_o celebration_n of_o their_o new_a moon_n be_v to_o be_v celebrate_v upon_o the_o sabbath_n day_n and_o therefore_o if_o the_o duty_n there_o mention_v can_v not_o be_v perform_v upon_o the_o sabbath_n day_n that_o do_v not_o prove_v the_o sabbath_n mention_v with_o new_a moon_n in_o that_o text_n do_v not_o intend_v the_o sabbath_n day_n second_o you_o say_v they_o tread_v the_o court_n of_o god_n this_o you_o call_v a_o work_n which_o they_o can_v not_o do_v upon_o the_o sabbath_n day_n because_o you_o say_v they_o meet_v in_o the_o synagogue_n upon_o sabbath_n day_n i_o answer_v that_o david_n magnify_v the_o court_n of_o god_n house_n while_o as_o yet_o there_o be_v no_o temple_n which_o show_v that_o other_o place_n be_v call_v the_o court_n of_o god_n house_n as_o well_o as_o the_o temple_n three_o they_o may_v tread_v god_n court_n in_o the_o temple_n upon_o the_o sabbath_n day_n and_o therefore_o you_o confess_v that_o the_o priest_n in_o the_o temple_n may_v offer_v the_o sacrifice_n upon_o the_o sabbath-day_n and_o be_v blameless_a which_o christ_n suppose_v to_o be_v their_o constant_a custom_n but_o i_o believe_v never_o any_o seventh-day_n sabbath-keeper_n but_o mr._n coppinger_n ever_o teach_v that_o it_o be_v a_o work_n that_o can_v not_o be_v do_v on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n for_o people_n to_o tread_v in_o the_o court_n of_o god_n temple_n again_o you_o say_v here_o be_v all_o their_o burnt-offering_n and_o all_o their_o sacrifice_n which_o you_o say_v can_v not_o be_v upon_o the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n offer_v and_o therefore_o isaiah_n can_v not_o mean_v the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n i_o answer_v that_o the_o text_n do_v not_o say_v all_o their_o sacrifice_n but_o the_o multitude_n of_o their_o sacrifice_n and_o therefore_o you_o gross_o abuse_v the_o text_n just_o as_o if_o i_o shall_v say_v here_o be_v a_o multitude_n of_o people_n here_o assemble_v do_v it_o reasonable_o follow_v from_o such_o a_o speech_n that_o all_o the_o people_n in_o england_n be_v here_o assemble_v mr._n coppinger_n the_o text_n

that_o they_o be_v such_o assembly_n that_o can_v not_o be_v upon_o the_o sabbath_n day_n for_o mr._n coppinger_n meet_v upon_o the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n and_o will_v they_o say_v when_o they_o be_v together_o that_o it_o be_v not_o a_o solemn_a assembly_n but_o if_o the_o sabbath_n mention_v isa_n 1.13_o can_v not_o be_v the_o sabbath_n day_n because_o they_o have_v solemn_a assembly_n upon_o it_o than_o the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n that_o mr._n coppinger_n and_o those_o of_o his_o mind_n assemble_v on_o be_v not_o the_o true_a sabbath_n day_n because_o they_o have_v a_o solemn_a

mention_v but_o however_o that_o be_v most_o untrue_a to_o say_v that_o the_o sabbath_n mention_v isa_n 1.13_o be_v not_o the_o sabbath_n day_n because_o those_o service_n there_o mention_v can_v not_o be_v do_v upon_o the_o sabbath_n day_n and_o that_o those_o religious_a duty_n there_o mention_v be_v contrary_a to_o the_o work_n of_o the_o sabbath_n day_n than_o which_o nothing_o be_v more_o false_a mr._n coppinger_n i_o have_v show_v you_o a_o text_n where_o sabbath_n be_v mention_v with_o new_a moon_n that_o be_v not_o understand_v of_o the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n mr._n ives_n i_o shall_v leave_v this_o argument_n to_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o audience_n and_o your_o own_o conscience_n i_o have_v show_v that_o sabbath_n be_v shadow_n of_o christ_n and_o therefore_o not_o bind_v in_o these_o day_n to_o the_o believe_a gentile_n i_o have_v also_o give_v two_o reason_n why_o the_o sabbath_n mention_v col._n 2.16_o be_v to_o be_v understand_v of_o the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n the_o one_o be_v because_o the_o word_n sabbath_n be_v always_o understand_v for_o the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n when_o it_o be_v mention_v without_o reference_n to_o their_o festival_n sabbath_n and_o last_o i_o have_v more_o chief_o insist_v and_o do_v still_o insist_v upon_o this_o reason_n viz._n that_o the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n be_v intend_v by_o the_o apostle_n in_o col._n 2.16_o because_o sabbath_n be_v there_o mention_v with_o new_a moon_n and_o feast_n etc._n etc._n and_o throughout_o the_o whole_a bible_n wherever_o sabbath_n be_v mention_v with_o new_a moon_n and_o feast_n there_o the_o sabbath_n day_n be_v always_o intend_v and_o therefore_o i_o do_v again_o call_v upon_o my_o respondent_fw-la either_o to_o say_v that_o he_o can_v answer_v the_o argument_n or_o else_o to_o show_v i_o a_o text_n where_o sabbath_n be_v mention_v with_o new_a moon_n and_o the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n not_o intend_v because_o no_o scripture_n be_v of_o a_o private_a interpretation_n mr._n coppinger_n i_o have_v show_v you_o isa_n 1.13_o where_o sabbath_n be_v mention_v and_o the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n not_o intend_v mr._n ives_n i_o have_v show_v you_o that_o the_o reason_n why_o you_o so_o conceive_v have_v no_o weight_n &_o that_o the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n be_v intend_v by_o the_o prophet_n isaiah_n in_o the_o sabbath_n mention_v with_o new_a moon_n isa_n 1.13_o and_o therefore_o unless_o you_o will_v assign_v any_o other_o instance_n to_o take_v off_o the_o force_n of_o my_o argument_n i_o shall_v because_o the_o time_n and_o my_o strength_n

mr._n coppinger_n i_o mean_v only_o that_o very_a church_n as_o they_o be_v a_o particular_a congregation_n distinguish_v from_o all_o other_o church_n and_o then_o there_o be_v a_o medium_n viz._n

then_o the_o text_n faith_n heb._n 4.9_o that_o there_o remain_v a_o keep_n of_o a_o sabbath_n to_o the_o people_n of_o god_n for_o so_o it_o be_v read_v in_o your_o margin_n here_o then_o be_v a_o
