But before I proceed, I might give you the Observations of divers Expositors on the order and manner of the Expressions in the fourth Commandment: As first, the essential part, Remember the Sabbath-day to keep it holy; not the seventh day. True, in the next words God declared that the seventh Day should be the Jews Sabbath, whom he took into a Legal and Typical Covenant, and Church-state, to be his own People: The seventh Day is the Sabbath of the Lord thy God; not thy God in Christ upon the terms of the new Covenant; no, no, but thy God in a legal, and external Covenant. And so their Sabbath was given to them upon the terms of the Law of Creation, or the Covenant of Works, which is a legal, relative, and external Covenant God entered into with the whole House of Israel, or Nation of the Jews, even them and all their natural Seed as such.
