Byfield, Richard – The Doctrine of the Sabbath Vindicated in a Confutation of a Treatise of the Sabbath, written by Mr. Edward Breerwood against Mr. Nicholas Byfield, wherein these Five Things are maintained: First, that the Fourth Commandment is given to the servant and not to the master only. Secondly, that the Fourth Commandment is moral. Thirdly, that our own light works as well as gainful and toilsome are forbidden on the Sabbath. Fourthly, that the Lord’s Day is of divine institution. Fifthly, that the Sabbath was instituted from the beginning (1631)

Walker, George – The Doctrine of the Sabbath. Wherein the First Institution of the Weekly Sabbath, with the time thereof, the nature of the law binding man to keep it, the true ground, and necessity of the first institution, and of the observation of it, on the several days in the Old Testament, and also of the moving of it to the first day under the Gospel, are laid open and proved out of the Holy Scriptures. Also besides: the special duties necessarily required for the due sanctification thereof, those two profitable points are proved by demonstrations out of God’s Word: First, that the Lord Christ, God and man, is the Lord of the Sabbath on whom the Sabbath was first founded… 2. That the faithful under the Gospel are as necessarily bound to keep the weekly Sabbath of the Lord’s Day (1638) 186 pp.
