Eighthly, A Sabbath was not agreeable to ⟨p. 53⟩Adam in Paradise, either in respect to himself, •o rest from Labour, or as a special day to worship God in: Such was the happiness of his •ate, that he had no Burdens to bear, nor •y toilsome Labour; nor was there any Curse […] the Creatures, that they should need a day […] Rest; he had no need of Servants, &c. •o doubt the Sabbath referred only to the state […] fallen Man, and was given in Mercy to ••rael, God's own Covenant-People, under the •aw; I say, in Mercy to them, and to the •asts who groan under their Burden. Adam's •bour, if any, in Innocency was matter of •light, and every day was a Sabbath to him: •nd, as Tertullian observes, Man lived in Paradise in a fruition of God. Let me close this •ith what a Reverend Author says.
