John5:8
Verſe 8. Riſe, take up thy bed, &c.] A ſervile work upon the Sabbath-day. This our Saviour here commands, not as a ſervile work, but for confirmation of the truth of a miracle, greatly tending to Gods glory: like as another time, he bad them give meat to the Damoſell he had raiſed, not for any neceſſity, but to enſure the cure.
