The Ceremonial law, is that which prescribed rites and gestures §10in the worship of God, in the time of the old testament. Ceremonies are either of figure and signification, or of order. The first are abrogated at the coming of Christ, who was the accomplishment of them all. Col. 2. 17. The second being ceremonies of particular order to the times of the old and new §15Testament, concern not us. For example: In the commandment of the Sabbath, some things are moral, some ceremonial, some judicial. That in one day of seven there should be an holy rest, it is moral. Rest upon the seventh day from the creation is Ceremonial, in respect of order.

Strictnes of rest from §20all labour, is ceremoniall in respect of the signification of rest from sinne, and rest in heauen. Therefore the particular day of rest, and the manner of rest, is abrogated: and Christ by his owne example, and by the example of the Apostles (examples not beeing contradicted in Scripture) appointed the eight day,
