The early church knew and understood these truths about both Saturday and Sundays were His Resurrection\u00a0days. Of course Sunday was the first full day, and Sabbath was only the evening. However in recent centuries various unscholarly works of fraudulent theologians say Christ didn&#8217;t rise on Sabbath (although the Bible clearly says Mary was at the tomb on Sabbath and Christ was already missing). Such renegade theologians seem to wish to erase all the commandments that were made for our good and our benefits from the doctrines of the church. They have said that He only rose on Sunday, the first day of the week, and so therefore Saturday (7th day) Sabbath is no longer part of the 10 commandments. We are to love His commandments in the New Covenant, not just to do it out of legalism, as now it is written on our hearts. The Sabbath pre-dated Moses, as it was established at Creation, and was something for the Israelites to &#8220;remember to keep it holy&#8221;, and no longer be forgetting the Sabbath YAHWEH established at creation.\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p id=\"yiv0027252018yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1492266538737_4694\" dir=\"ltr\"><strong><span style=\"color: #0000ff\"><i id=\"yiv0027252018yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1492266538737_7043\"><span id=\"yiv0027252018yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1492266538737_5055\" style=\"font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;font-size: medium\">This article\u00a0<\/span><span id=\"yiv0027252018yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1492266538737_4188\">is part of the larger booklet put out by the OCC entitled &#8220;<a id=\"yiv0027252018yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1492266538737_4693\" class=\"yiv0027252018edited-link-editor\" style=\"color: #0000ff\" href=\"http:\/\/christsassembly.com\/2015\/05\/honoring-of-the-sabbath-in-the-historic-orthodox-church\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Honoring Sabbath in the Orthodox Church<\/a>&#8220;.

There is also evidence, to a certain extent, that there were early Christians who believed in a midweek crucifixion and a Saturday (Sabbath) resurrection.<\/span><\/div>\n<div id=\"yiv0027252018yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1492266538737_3679\"><span style=\"font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;font-size: medium\">\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<div id=\"yiv0027252018yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1492266538737_3680\"><span id=\"yiv0027252018yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1492266538737_3965\" style=\"font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;font-size: medium\">To support the theory of a Tuesday night Last Supper tradition, the earliest source where I have found evidence is the Didascalia Apostolorum, a church order which is supposed to have been composed circa A.D. 200. [this was in northern Syria, near Asia Minor -ed] It states, \u201cFor while He was yet with us before He suffered as we were eating the Passover with Him, He said to us, \u2018Today, in this night, one of you will betray Me\u2019 . . . And Judas came with the scribes and with the priests of the people and betrayed our Lord Jesus. And so in the night when the fourth day of the week drew on, betrayed our Lord to them. But they made payment to Judas. . . on the second day of the week . . . For when we had eaten the Passover on the third day of the week at even, we went forth to the Mount of Olives, and in the night they seized our Lord Jesus.\u201d1<\/span><\/div>\n<div id=\"yiv0027252018yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1492266538737_3681\"><span style=\"font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;font-size: medium\">\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<div id=\"yiv0027252018yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1492266538737_3682\"><span id=\"yiv0027252018yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1492266538737_3964\" style=\"font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;font-size: medium\">By the end of the third century a fast was celebrated on Wednesday (until 3:00 p.m.) to commemorate Christ\u2019s arrest. Victorinus, Bishop of Petau (martyred in A.D. 304) explains: \u201cNow is manifested \u00a0\u00a0the reason of the truth why the fourth day is called the Tetras, why we fast even to the ninth hour . . .
