Dr. Owen also repeats what some learned Men say upon this place,1 Let no Man judg you in Meats or Drinks, or in respect of an Holy-day, or the New-Moon, 2[Greek or Hebrew], or of the Sabbath, or Sabbath-days, which were a shadow of things to come: but the Body is of Christ. From hence they affirm (saith he) it will follow, that there is nothing moral in the observation of the Sabbath, seeing it was a mere Type and Shadow, as were other Mosaical Institutions; and also that it is absolutely abolished and taken away by Christ. And if they mean no more but that precise seventh Day, they were certainly right: Nay Dr. Owen himself, as I conceive, determines the matter so as to make that precise day refer to Moses, and his Economy.
