JOH. 7. Brethren, I write no new commandment unto you, but an old commandment which ye have heard from the beginning: this old commandment is the word, which ye have heard from the beginning. 8. Again, a new commandment I write unto you, that which is true (to wit, that the commandment is new which he will now write) in him (who reneweth the commandment of old given to Moses) & also in you, for the darkness is past. (uz. the hardening of the minds of men, under the old testament, whereby they did but in a small measure understand the word) and that true light (a greater measure of illumination; as also the writing of Gods laws, not in Tables of stone, but in the fleshy hearts, so as they be transformed into the obedience thereof) now shineth.
