commandment_n be_v two_o viz._n 1._o the_o commandment_n that_o the_o sabbath_n be_v sanctify_v that_o be_v that_o itself_o viz._n the_o seven_o day_n be_v allot_v for_o god_n service_n gen._n 2.3_o

remember_v to_o keep_v holy_a the_o sabbath_n day_n that_o be_v with_o great_a care_n and_o religion_n and_o that_o for_o these_o reason_n 1._o because_o the_o breach_n and_o violate_v of_o the_o sabbath_n be_v the_o breach_n and_o violate_v of_o the_o whole_a worship_n of_o god_n for_o the_o neglect_n of_o the_o ministry_n soon_o corrupt_v the_o whole_a doctrine_n and_o worship_n of_o god_n 2._o because_o by_o the_o exact_v of_o this_o typical_a sabbath_n god_n will_v signify_v the_o greatness_n and_o necessity_n of_o the_o spiritual_a sabbath_n 3._o because_o god_n will_v have_v the_o external_a sabbath_n to_o serve_v for_o the_o beginning_n and_o perfect_v of_o the_o spiritual_a sabbath_n in_o we_o in_o this_o commandment_n we_o be_v command_v to_o keep_v holy_a the_o sabbath_n day_n which_o be_v do_v 1._o by_o prepare_v ourselves_o by_o prayer_n and_o empty_v our_o heart_n of_o sin_n 2._o by_o assemble_v together_o to_o pray_v unto_o god_n to_o praise_v he_o to_o hear_v his_o holy_a word_n and_o to_o receive_v the_o bless_a sacrament_n 3._o by_o meditate_v upon_o god_n work_n and_o the_o word_n which_o we_o have_v hear_v suffer_v it_o so_o to_o work_v in_o we_o as_o that_o we_o may_v be_v further_v in_o all_o holiness_n of_o life_n 4._o by_o collect_v and_o distribute_v to_o the_o poor_a by_o vi_v the_o sick_a and_o reconcile_a dissension_n among_o neighbour_n in_o this_o commandment_n be_v forbid_v all_o profane_v of_o the_o sabbath_n which_o be_v 1._o by_o do_v worldly_a work_n which_o be_v not_o of_o present_a necessity_n by_o journey_v about_o worldly_a affair_n idle_a rest_v or_o absent_v ourselves_o from_o the_o public_a duty_n of_o god_n word_n and_o worship_n 2._o by_o forgetfulness_n of_o the_o sabbath_n upon_o the_o six_o day_n by_o which_o we_o often_o bring_v upon_o ourselves_o a_o necessity_n of_o profane_v the_o same_o 3._o when_o be_v parent_n or_o governor_n we_o leave_v such_o as_o be_v under_o our_o charge_n to_o their_o liberty_n upon_o that_o day_n the_o reason_n of_o this_o commandment_n be_v 1._o partly_o express_v therein_o and_o be_v take_v 1._o from_o the_o lord_n example_n who_o rest_v the_o seven_o day_n from_o all_o his_o work_n of_o creation_n 2._o from_o his_o blessing_n inseparable_o link_v unto_o the_o hallow_n of_o this_o day_n 2._o partly_o enfold_v therein_o &_o be_v these_o 1._o the_o law_n of_o the_o sabbath_n be_v ancient_a and_o be_v of_o force_n in_o paradise_n before_o man_n fall_n 2._o because_o it_o be_v most_o equal_a the_o lord_n allow_v we_o six_o day_n to_o labour_n in_o 3._o because_o the_o seven_o be_v the_o lord_n peculiar_a day_n so_o that_o without_o sacrilege_n we_o can_v any_o way_n profane_v it_o god_n will_v have_v all_o our_o child_n and_o family_n to_o cease_v from_o their_o labour_n on_o this_o day_n for_o two_o cause_n 1._o that_o these_o also_o may_v be_v bring_v up_o by_o their_o parent_n and_o master_n in_o the_o service_n of_o god_n and_o may_v be_v admit_v unto_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o church_n 2._o because_o he_o will_v have_v especial_o on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n love_n and_o bountifulness_n towards_o our_o neighbour_n to_o be_v show_v and_o see_v in_o the_o church_n stranger_n also_o be_v command_v to_o intermit_v their_o labour_n and_o that_o if_o they_o be_v convert_v to_o true_a religion_n because_o they_o be_v of_o the_o household_n of_o the_o church_n if_o they_o be_v infidel_n it_o be_v command_v they_o not_o in_o respect_n of_o themselves_o but_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o israelite_n and_o that_o especial_o for_o these_o two_o reason_n 1._o lest_o by_o their_o ill_a example_n they_o shall_v give_v offence_n unto_o the_o church_n 2._o lest_o their_o liberty_n may_v be_v a_o occasion_n to_o the_o jew_n to_o accomplish_v by_o they_o those_o labour_n which_o it_o be_v

not_o lawful_a for_o they_o to_o work_v by_o themselves_o and_o so_o the_o law_n of_o god_n shall_v be_v delude_v the_o cattle_n also_o be_v command_v to_o rest_n who_o rest_n have_v no_o respect_n or_o consideration_n of_o god_n worship_n but_o be_v command_v only_o in_o respect_n of_o man_n and_o that_o for_o these_o two_o reason_n especial_o 1._o that_o all_o occasion_n of_o labour_v may_v be_v cut_v off_o by_o forbid_v the_o labour_n or_o use_v of_o their_o beast_n 2._o that_o also_o they_o spare_v bruit_n beast_n may_v learn_v how_o great_o god_n will_v have_v regard_n to_o be_v have_v of_o mercy_n and_o favorableness_n towards_o man_n it_o be_v the_o seven_o day_n that_o god_n consecrate_v to_o divine_a service_n for_o these_o reason_n 1._o that_o by_o the_o example_n of_o his_o own_o rest_n as_o a_o most_o forcible_a and_o effectual_a argument_n he_o may_v exhort_v man_n to_o the_o imitation_n thereof_o 2._o that_o this_o rest_n of_o the_o seven_o day_n may_v be_v a_o monument_n of_o the_o creation_n then_o finish_v by_o god_n and_o of_o his_o perpetual_a preservation_n and_o govern_n of_o his_o work_n ever_o since_o that_o day_n unto_o his_o own_o glory_n and_o the_o safety_n of_o his_o choose_a in_o this_o consecration_n god_n require_v these_o two_o thing_n most_o especial_o viz._n 1._o that_o on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n there_o be_v not_o only_o a_o private_a serve_v of_o god_n as_o on_o other_o day_n but_o also_o a_o public_a serve_v of_o he_o in_o the_o church_n 2._o that_o on_o that_o day_n all_o other_o labour_n shall_v give_v place_n both_o to_o the_o private_a and_o public_a worship_n of_o god_n which_o on_o other_o day_n every_o one_o do_v exercise_n according_a to_o his_o vocation_n and_o call_v now_o here_o we_o must_v know_v that_o there_o be_v a_o threefold_a difference_n of_o forbid_a work_n and_o sin_n viz._n 1._o labour_n be_v forbid_v but_o in_o respect_n only_o as_o they_o hinder_v the_o ministry_n of_o the_o church_n or_o as_o they_o give_v offence_n to_o our_o neighbour_n 2._o labour_n be_v forbid_v only_o to_o be_v use_v on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n sin_n at_o all_o time_n 3._o the_o cease_n from_o labour_n be_v a_o type_n of_o cease_v from_o sin_n which_o be_v the_o thing_n signify_v by_o that_o type_n the_o institution_n of_o the_o sabbath_n in_o paradise_n consist_v of_o two_o part_n 1._o a_o blessing_n god_n do_v bless_v it_o in_o regard_n of_o himself_o because_o he_o keep_v it_o in_o his_o own_o person_n 2._o sanctification_n he_o hallow_v it_o also_o in_o regard_n of_o man_n by_o command_v it_o to_o be_v sanctify_v or_o keep_v in_o performance_n of_o holy_a duty_n thus_o two_o thing_n be_v require_v in_o a_o sabbath_n 1._o a_o rest_n which_o consist_v in_o a_o cease_n from_o labour_n 2._o a_o sanctification_n of_o that_o rest_n to_o a_o holy_a use_n this_o be_v the_o sabbath_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n the_o sabbath_n be_v command_v of_o god_n for_o two_o cause_n viz._n 1._o declarative_a consider_v in_o two_o respect_n 1._o by_o that_o bodily_a rest_v the_o lord_n mean_v to_o warn_v the_o people_n of_o israel_n to_o abstain_v and_o rest_v from_o their_o own_o work_n be_v carnal_a and_o defile_v that_o they_o may_v suffer_v the_o holy_a ghost_n to_o work_v in_o they_o so_o that_o it_o be_v a_o type_n or_o shadow_n of_o our_o regeneration_n 2._o that_o circumstance_n serve_v to_o signify_v the_o everlasting_a rest_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n which_o be_v as_o it_o be_v part_n of_o the_o former_a 2._o the_o other_o end_n of_o bodily_a rest_n be_v that_o we_o may_v wait_v upon_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o church_n meditate_v upon_o god_n work_n diligent_o apply_v ourselves_o to_o the_o love_n of_o our_o neighbour_n and_o the_o instruction_n of_o our_o family_n the_o former_a end_n be_v take_v away_o by_o the_o come_n of_o christ_n this_o latter_a remain_v and_o be_v perpetual_a there_o be_v likewise_o two_o thing_n to_o be_v consider_v in_o the_o sabbath_n viz._n 1._o the_o thing_n ceremonial_a and_o temporary_a as_o the_o jew_n may_v not_o begin_v a_o journey_n on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n exod._n 16.29_o nor_o kindle_v a_o fire_n thereon_o exod._n 35.3_o nor_o carry_v a_o burden_n jer._n 17.21_o 2._o the_o thing_n moral_a and_o perpetual_a as_o that_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o day_n of_o rest_n that_o this_o day_n shall_v be_v sanctify_v and_o that_o this_o holy_a rest_n shall_v be_v observe_v in_o a_o seven_o day_n the_o sabbath_n signify_v a_o quietness_n or_o rest_n or_o cease_v from_o labour_n for_o these_o reason_n viz._n 1._o because_o god_n rest_v on_o that_o day_n 2._o because_o it_o be_v a_o image_n of_o the_o spiritual_a rest_n to_o come_v 3._o because_o we_o also_o and_o our_o family_n and_o our_o cattle_n be_v to_o rest_n and_o cease_v from_o our_o work_n on_o that_o day_n that_o god_n may_v then_o show_v and_o exercise_v his_o work_n in_o we_o again_o there_o be_v a_o threefold_a consideration_n to_o be_v have_v of_o the_o sabbath_n viz._n 1._o legal_a command_v in_o exod._n 20.8_o which_o be_v for_o the_o exercise_n of_o 1._o i'faith_o 1._o to_o meditate_v on_o god_n work_n 2._o to_o beg_v a_o

from_o the_o labour_n and_o encumbrance_n of_o this_o present_a life_n likewise_o there_o be_v three_o degree_n of_o the_o sabbath_n not_o unlike_o these_o of_o the_o sacrament_n viz._n 1._o external_n and_o elementary_a in_o which_o as_o touch_v the_o outward_a celebration_n both_o good_a and_o evil_a man_n communicate_v together_o 2._o internal_a and_o spiritual_a whereof_o the_o

which_o the_o faithful_a do_v earnest_o contend_v the_o sanctification_n of_o the_o sabbath_n be_v twofold_a viz._n 1._o public_a which_o be_v the_o solemn_a performance_n of_o spiritual_a work_n tend_v to_o the_o public_a worship_n of_o god_n as_o 1._o the_o read_n hear_v and_o preach_v of_o god_n word_n 2._o the_o administration_n of_o the_o sacrament_n according_a to_o god_n institution_n
