When the Day of the Lord comes and the Resurrection/Rapture is over what remains is the fulfillment of Joel's words , The Great and Terrible Day of the Lord. Day of the Lord came on the 1335th day ( Daniel 12:12 ) of the seven year Tribulation leaving 1185 days which represent the bowl judgements.
Mat. 24:21 For then there will be great distress, unequaled from the beginning of the world until now—and never to be equaled again.

John 6:40
For my Father’s will is that everyone who looks to the Son and believes in him shall have eternal life, and I will raise them up at the last day.”
John 11:24
Martha answered, “I know he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day.”
This event is described in 1Thesalonians 4:13-18. Jesus will come and remove his followers from the ground to be with him in the air.
Day of the Lord is a reference to judgment. The verses you supplied speak neither to judgment or the day of the Lord.
Yes, the Day of the Lord is a time of Judgement for the unrighteous who has to go thru 3 plus years of the bowl judgements but it also the Last day for those saved by faith. From this moment on during the Day of the Lord they are saved by works only during the time of Jacob's troubles.
You still haven't made the case for the day of the Lord being simply the last day scripturally. There are multiple times throughout history that God has brought judgment. And there have been multiple last days.
Also, there is no salvation by works and there never has been. Additionally, there is no Jacob anymore. His troubles have long since ended.
But there will be
34 Then the King will say to those at his right hand, ‘Come, O blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world; 35 for I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, 36 I was naked and you clothed me, I was sick and you visited me, I was in prison and you came to me.’ 37 Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see thee hungry and feed thee, or thirsty and give thee drink? 38 And when did we see thee a stranger and welcome thee, or naked and clothe thee? 39 And when did we see thee sick or in prison and visit thee?’ 40 And the King will answer them, ‘Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brethren, you did it to me
Jeremiah 30:7
Alas! that day is so great there is none like it; it is a time of distress for Jacob; yet he shall be saved out of it.

But for the church age saints we await patiently another scripture unfulfilled!
As in the days of Noah and Lot
26 As it was in the days of Noah, so will it be in the days of the Son of man. 27 They ate, they drank, they married, they were given in marriage, until the day when Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all. 28 Likewise as it was in the days of Lot—they ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built, 29 but on the day when Lot went out from Sodom fire and sulphur rained from heaven and destroyed them all— 30 so will it be on the day when the Son of man is revealed.

Because using the Papyrus dating method dates Revelation after the 70 AD destruction making the proclamation of the Day of the Lord to come futuristic.
So what was imminent, at hand, and came to pass shortly at the time you believe Revelation was written?
Israel today are the people of God? Hmmmm. Do they worship Him? Are they in covenant with Him?
Revelation chapter 7 describes the Israel that will be around just before Jesus returns. The saints are up in the air with the Lord then.
I know. If I am right, Revelation 7 is talking about what will happen to Israel soon. But that is for another day.
