Would welcome an article on sabbath/Lord's Day vs literal day 7. On 'yom rishon' (day 8 (literal "first day") and interesting in Genesis there is no "first day (ordinal)" of creation but "one day"), our Lord was circumcised, rose from the dead. I have family members who have completely 'judaized', and keep Saturday as the sabbath/rest instead of the Lord's Day, insisting on the perpetual literalness of 'the 7th day' rather than 'six days you shall work, in the 7th 'sabbath/rest'. The Didiche as well as Mark 2:27, Romans 14:5-6, Acts 20:7, Colossians 2:16, Galations 4:9-10, are proofs on the new sabbath, but they can't be convinced. Subsequently along with Jewish sabbath they have adopted the Jewish view of divorce and a sort of Noahide 'neo-religious indifferentism'.
