Seventhly, Besides, the Law of the Seventh day Sabbath ran thus, Six days thou shalt work▪ and do all thou hast to do, but the seventh is the Sabbath, &c. Now the Old Testament Sabbath was the last day of the week: they were to work six, the six first; but this he could not do I mean the six first from the Creation, because he was not created till the sixth day. So that the first six days, tho the six days in which th• Lord did all his Work, could not be Adam's six working days. But if the Sabbath was given to him in Innocency, no doubt, as Tilla• ⟨p. 51⟩says, he kept the first Sabbath; and then it •ollows he begun with God, and rested before […] laboured six days, contrary to the Order and command of the instituted Sabbath, Exod. 20.
