The Roman church adopted Sunday as 'holy' from the pagan worshipers of Mithra. "Sun" worship.
Every day is another day of our Lord and Savior. But if there is any day of the week that is set apart, I think it's that one established by God(the Word) at the beginning and the subject of one of the 10 commandments.
The tomb was found empty on the first day of the week while it was still dark.
But when did He rise?
Maybe at the end of Sabbath? The beginning of the new week. You can call that "Sunday" but the beginning of the first "day" of the week is what we call Saturday evening.
I asked rhetorical questions to prompt you to consider the answer that I gave.
Jesus raised at the beginning of the 1st day of the week. Which is sunset, Saturday evening.
Which leads to my first question, why do people say "Sunday is Jesus' day"? I'm not judging anybody for saying this. I'm just asking, rhetorically again. Because we can do some research and find out historically why the church adopted Sunday and ignored sabbath.
These are just questions for christians to think about.
Why is Sunday Jesus' day?
Pretty sure he observed the sabbath.

Because he rose from the dead on Sunday. OP should have used a more relevant picture

So you don't actually know and youre just arguing semantics.
