Q. What was the cause why the day was changed?
A. Because it might serve for a thankful memorial ⟨p. 110⟩of Christs Resurrection: for as God rested from his labour on the last day of the week; so Christ ceased 1from his labour and Afflictions on this day: as the one therefore was specially sanctified in regard of the Creation of the world; so was the other, in respect of the restoration and Redemption thereof, which is a greater work then the Creation it self.
