Sleep is Rest, or gives Rest to the Body: So Death is or doth give Rest to the Body. And hence Job 1saith, speaking of Death: I should have lien still, and been quiet: I should have slept, then had I been at Rest. We usually say, when a Man goes to sleep, he goes to rest. There is a fourfold Rest which we obtain in Death. 1. From Labour and Travel; no work there. 2. There is a Rest from Trouble and Oppression: There the Wicked cease from troubling, 2and the Weary be at rest. 3. There is a Rest from Passion and Sorrow: no Grief shall afflict us there. 4. Which is better than all, there is a Rest from Sin, a Rest from the Temptations and Drudgery of Satan, a Rest from the Law in our Members.
