    I read it the same way. I belie4ve the "Day of the Lord" is the day (or night, depending on where on earth one will be) is the day of Jesus' physical return.

    We've had the same 7 days of the week for millenia, with what we call Saturday in English being the 7th, & the day we call Sunday in English being the 1st.

    Mosta the early Christians were Jews, & had they not attended their synagogue or temple, they'da been labeled as heretics by the other Jews & likely killed. But they wanted to have CHRISTIAN meetings, so they started meeting on Sundays in memebrs' homes, as well as attending synagogue on Saturday. But as time passed, they wished to abandon many Jewish customs which were no longer necessary to keep them "right with God".

    Now, you were shown the Scriptures stating where the apostles & other early Christians met on Sundays, as well as where Paul declared many of those things matters of conscience.

    According to Justin Martyr, rthese Christians at their Sunday meetings had readings aloud from NT Scriptures, especially the Gosrels, a sermon, communal prayer, & Communion. same as in modern Sunday services.

    Acts 20:7 - "And upon the first dav of the week when the disciples came together to
    break bread, Paulpreached unto them, and continued his speech until midnight. "

    Not explicitly.
    Also nowhere in the word of God is the Sabbath called "the Lord's day." It is a matter of interpretation. Also, ". . . One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind. . . ." -- Romans 14:5.

    Well, actually, it's named after Tyr, or Tiw, the Norse god of single combat, law, & justice. our English names for the days are a combo of Norse gods' names (Thursday=Thor's day) and Roman.(Saturday=Saturn's day)
