PAR. 17.
BVt in the new Testament, after, or rather at Christs Resurrection, began a new reckoning; the day was reckoned from the morning, or, toward the beginning of light, Ioh. 20.1. The first day of the weeke, Earely, when it was yet darke, Mary came to the Sepulchre: and Mar. 16.1. &c. When the Sabbath was past—very early in the mor∣ning, the first day of the weeke, they came to the sepulchre, at the rising of the Sunne; which is thus varied, Matth. 28.1. In the end of the Sabbath, as it began to dawne from which three places, compared together, resulteth, that the Sabbath endeed; as the day be∣gan to dawne; and the dayes are reckoned, from the breaking of the morning, a∣bout, or a litttle before Sun-rising: but let us draw nearer.
