I do believe the Sabbath is sundown Friday to sundown Saturday. I believe that's Biblical?
I read somewhere that the reason the worship day was changed to Sunday was because Emperor Hadrian in the second century was persecuting Christians and they were trying to avoid persecution.
I also read that the tradition of Sunday worship including the Gospel, commentary and warnings, and bread, wine and water after a group prayer, were traditional to an observer of the ceremonies in, I think 160 A.D./C.E. writings of someone named Justin Martyr.
It seems that maybe the ceremonies were originally held on the sabbath? That may well be true since the apostles, would have thought that to be the day to do it. It may have been based in the bible or tradition, since some writers suggest that the day was moved and others suggest that it was made to be on Sunday because it was about the New Covenant and not the old.
Anyone have a time machine handy?
