if_o this_o reason_n be_v believe_v by_o christian_a gentile_n than_o this_o law_n shall_v be_v observe_v by_o they_o second_o god_n command_v israel_n to_o rest_v the_o seventh-day_n because_o it_o

a_o reason_n why_o we_o shall_v keep_v the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n because_o israel_n be_v to_o keep_v it_o for_o that_o reason_n than_o we_o must_v also_o drink_v deep_o of_o this_o cup_n of_o

sabbath_n lib._n 2._o contr_n appion_n again_o second_o the_o gentile_n can_v not_o keep_v the_o seven_o day_n by_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n because_o they_o be_v not_o exact_o able_a to_o compute_v the_o seven_o day_n from_o the_o creation_n by_o reason_n that_o the_o sun_n stand_v still_o in_o joshua_n time_n and_o haste_v not_o to_o go_v down_o for_o a_o whole_a day_n and_o likewise_o the_o sun_n go_v backward_o ten_o degree_n in_o hezekiahs_n time_n which_o be_v almost_o half_a a_o day_n by_o reason_n whereof_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n be_v never_o able_a to_o make_v a_o perfect_a account_n of_o the_o seven_o day_n from_o the_o creation_n three_o a_o man_n can_v know_v the_o seven_o day_n from_o the_o four_o but_o by_o tradition_n therefore_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o seven_o day_n be_v not_o moral_a as_o for_o instance_n suppose_v a_o man_n sick_a of_o a_o violent_a distemper_n that_o bereave_v he_o of_o his_o sense_n when_o he_o come_v to_o his_o

seven_o day_n he_o can_v know_v this_o but_o by_o the_o help_n of_o tradition_n have_v lose_v his_o account_n in_o the_o time_n of_o his_o sickness_n which_o show_v that_o the_o seven_o day_n be_v not_o command_v by_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n because_o by_o that_o light_n a_o man_n can_v know_v the_o seenth_fw-mi day_n from_o the_o four_o or_o eight_o again_o this_o reason_n be_v further_o illustrate_v by_o the_o travel_n of_o sir_n francis_n drake_n who_o lose_v a_o whole_a day_n and_o so_o do_v all_o their_o company_n before_o their_o return_n for_o england_n so_o the_o dutch_a in_o their_o western_a discovery_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o variation_n of_o longitude_n and_o latitude_n they_o have_v lose_v a_o day_n before_o they_o return_v which_o they_o have_v never_o be_v inform_v in_o but_o by_o the_o help_n of_o tradition_n which_o show_v that_o nature_n can_v not_o instruct_v the_o gentile_n in_o the_o knowledge_n of_o a_o seven_o day_n now_o these_o and_o the_o like_a case_n put_v a_o absolute_a necessity_n upon_o the_o world_n to_o be_v ignorant_a of_o this_o law_n therefore_o it_o can_v be_v moral_a the_o second_o argument_n which_o i_o urge_v to_o prove_v that_o the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n be_v not_o in_o force_n to_o the_o believe_a gentile_n be_v because_o they_o be_v not_o command_v by_o moses_n law_n to_o keep_v the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n my_o

moses_n law_n be_v in_o force_n than_o the_o punishment_n due_a to_o the_o breach_n of_o the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n be_v in_o force_n which_o be_v that_o the_o congregation_n shall_v stone_n the_o

law_n be_v in_o force_n to_o require_v any_o thing_n of_o the_o gentile_n that_o be_v not_o express_o and_o particular_o require_v of_o they_o by_o christ_n or_o his_o apostle_n than_o we_o may_v by_o the_o argument_n of_o moses_n law_n take_v a_o liberty_n to_o innovate_v what_o judaical_a ceremony_n we_o shall_v at_o any_o time_n have_v a_o mind_n unto_o argum._n iii_o i_o come_v now_o to_o the_o last_o argument_n viz._n that_o the_o gentile_n be_v not_o require_v by_o christ_n to_o keep_v the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n first_o because_o he_o have_v not_o express_o require_v any_o such_o thing_n in_o all_o the_o new_a testament_n nor_o have_v any_o of_o his_o apostle_n to_o who_o he_o delegated_a a_o power_n to_o preach_v the_o law_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n ever_o declare_v any_o such_o thing_n but_o second_o the_o apostle_n tell_v we_o that_o the_o sabbath_n be_v a_o shadow_n of_o good_a thing_n to_o come_v col._n 2.16_o 27._o which_o must_v needs_o be_v understand_v of_o

which-ought_a to_o be_v so_o sanctify_v but_o second_o wherever_o sabbath_n be_v join_v with_o new_a moon_n and_o feast_n there_o it_o be_v always_o understand_v of_o the_o sabbath_n day_n because_o
