Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy.
Six days you shall labor and do all your work,
but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the Lord your
God. On it you shall not do any work, neither
you, nor your son or daughter, nor your
manservant or maidservant, nor your animals, nor
the alien within your gates. For in six days the
Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and
all that is in them, but he rested on the seventh
day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day
and made it holy.
Exodus 208-11

was on Israel. 16 Therefore do not let anyone
judge you by what you eat or drink, or with
regard to a religious festival, a New Moon
celebration or a Sabbath day.Colossians 216
18
"And so those who lived according to the old ways
came to a new hope, no longer keeping the Sabbath
but living according to the Lord's day, on which
also our live arose through him and his death"
(Ignatius, Letter to the Magnesians 91 ca. A.D.
98-117)
