Q. 77. The Sabboth was the last day of the Weeke, how commeth it now to bee changed into the first day of the weeke?

A. This day the Lord hath made, Psal. 118. 24. For on this day Christ rose from the dead, and rested from the worke of Redemption, Math. 28. 1. Having created new heavens and a new earth, Psal. 65. 17. which we are to keepe by vertue of the fourth Commandement still; for Christ telleth us, hee is Lord of it, Math. 12. 8. which is called sometimes from Priority of or∣der and dignity, the first day of the Weeke, Acts 20. 7. Sometimes from the Author that did in∣stitute it, the Lords day, Rev. 1. 10. as wee see the Lords Supper is so called, 1 Cor. 11. 0. And though the Sabboth from the Crcation were from Even to even, Levit. 23. 32. Dayes being so reckoned, Gen. 1. 31. yet this Sabboth is to bee reckoned from Christs Resurrection; and therefore is from Morning to morning, Marke 16. 2. And albeit Mary Magdalen came while it was darkish, and Christ was risen before that, and so might seeme to have risen over night, Job. 20. 1. yet that could not bee the women, and Peter, and John would never have deferred their going to the Sepulcher, till morning then as they did vers. 2. Now howsoever this Day be circumstantially changed and Ceremonies re∣moved; yet the day stands still morall, Acts 16. 13. The Commandement of not Killing, had a ceremony anext to it. as the eating of the Flesh, with the bloud, Gen. 9. 4. 5. which now is chan∣ged. Col. 2. 21. and yet the Commandement of not killing stands still, Rom. 13. 9.
