the day which God hath sanctified, except he is pure in heart in all things,' we are deceived.- Behold, therefore : ^ certainly then one properly resting sanctifies it, when we ourselves, having received the promise, wickedness no longer ex- isting, and all things having been made new by the Lord, shall be able to work righteousness.* Then we shall be able to sanctify it, having been first sanctified ourselves. 5 Further, He says to them, " Your new moons and your Sabbaths I cannot endure." ^ Ye perceive how He speaks : Your present Sabbaths are not acceptable to Me, but that is which I have made, [namely this,] when, giving rest to all things, I shall make a beginning of the eighth day, that is, a beginning of another world. Wherefore, also, we keep the eighth day with joyfulness, the day also on which Jesus rose again from the dead.-' And ^ when He had manifested Himself, He ascended into the heavens.
