2. Well, and what saith the Holy Ghost? This is the Day the Lord hath made.
1. He speaks, as all Expositors note, of the particular day of Christ's Resurrection.
2. And that this is the Day which the Lord hath made: How made? God created that, ⟨p. 211⟩and every day of the Week at first. But this Day is constituted or made for some special end and use, above any other day in the Week: Nothing lies more plain in the Text than this.
3. The Lord hath made it, i. e. instituted or appointed it to these great Ends; not the Apostles, not the Church, not Man, but the Lord himself hath made it.
4. And then the Gospel-Church, and all Gospel-Believers signified by this word [we] resolve upon this Great Authority to observe it; we will rejoice and be glad in it. Here it is foretold that God hath singularly made, created, or instituted this Day for us, to meet together, and to worship him with joy and gladness of heart; and accordingly we have proved it was confirmed.
