"There are nine references in the Bible to the first day of the week, as follows: Genesis 1:5; Matthew 28:1; Mark 16:1, 2, 9; Luke 24:1; John 20:1; 20:19; Acts 20:7; 1 Corinthians 16:2.
The first day of the week was named by Jehovah 6,000 years ago. The six inspired writers that mention it, call it by the same name,-the first day of the week.
None allude to it as the holy rest day, while three of them state it came the day after the Sabbath, showing that they did not regard it as the Sabbath.
It is classed among the working days. Ezekiel 46:1.
Paul bore the following testimony 32 years this side of the cross: “I have committed nothing against the people or customs of our fathers.” Acts 28:17. If he had kept any other Sabbath than the Seventh-day Sabbath, he would have departed from the customs of his fathers."
