I do believe when Paul saith, One man esteemeth one day above another, and another esteemeth every day alike, that he intends not all days of •he week without exception, but every day •ave the first day, or the Lord's-day; because •e speaks of Jewish Rites, Days, and Scruples about Meats and Drinks among them. For •e gave Command about the solemn Duties and Observation of the first Day of the week to all the Churches, as I shall prove.

Neither let any conclude from hence, th•• he gave liberty to the Saints to keep the Jewish Sabbath any further than they looked upon […] as an indifferent thing; nor any longer th• till their Understanding was further inlight••• and their Consciences better informed. F•• how severe was he with those (as in my Te•• who lay any stress upon it, i.e. as a moral D• ty, or of necessity to a holy Life?
