Thesis 42.

'Tis true, the time before day, Marke 1.35. is called early [ 42] Morning, and we read of the Morning watch before day light, Ex. 14.24, yet these places no way prove that which they are produced for, viz. That Morning begins at midnight: that Christ went to prayer at midnight, because he went to it in the early Morning, or that the Morning watch began at mid∣night; for we know it was some time after it; these places in∣deed shew thus much, That sometime before Day-light is sometime called Morning, which is readily acknowledged in the respects forementioned.
