Thesis 22.

Moses indeed tells the people, Ex. 16.23. that to morrow [ 22] is the Lords Sabbath, but he doth not say that the day time onely was the only time of the Sabbath, or that the Day light begins and ends the Sabbath; but he mentions that time, be∣cause on that Daylight of the seventh Day they were apt and inclined to go out (as in other daies,) to gather manna, and so to breake the Sabbath; and it is as if we should say to one who was ready to ride out on the Sabbath morning about wordly occasions, Do not stir out, for to morrow is the Sabbath; that so we may hereby prevent the breach of the Sabbath in that thing, especially at that time wherein one is most inclined so to do.
