god_n seem_v to_o have_v reference_n to_o this_o institution_n but_o so_o that_o he_o make_v it_o manifest_a he_o look_v not_o to_o that_o period_n but_o to_o the_o number_n and_o order_n of_o the_o

it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o word_n of_o that_o institution_n and_o the_o lord_n reason_n be_v not_o this_o what_o day_n i_o rest_v that_o thou_o must_v rest_v but_o i_o rest_v the_o seven_o from_o

as_o the_o word_n before_o express_v not_o from_o the_o creation_n only_o therefore_o thou_o must_v remember_v the_o sabbath_n day_n to_o sanctify_v it_o so_o then_o this_o reason_n i_o take_v to_o

we_o have_v it_o from_o christ_n appointment_n as_o be_v plain_o show_v we_o because_o this_o day_n be_v call_v the_o lord_n day_n that_o be_v the_o day_n which_o he_o appoint_v to_o be_v keep_v
