Sunday — the first day of the week, the day of Christ's resurrection, on which the early church gathered weekly for worship, the breaking of bread, and the reading of Scripture. Distinct from the Jewish Sabbath (Saturday). The Lord's Day is the New Covenant day of assembly and the weekly celebration of the resurrection. GK: kyriakē hēmera (κυριακὴ ἡμέρα) — the day belonging to the Lord (kyrios). This is the first use of this exact technical term for Sunday in Christian literature. The same adjective kyriakos is used of the Lord's Supper in 1 Corinthians 11:20.
