I am saying that a well-founded, fed-on-the-Tridentine Mass, traditionalist Catholic should know better than to refer to Sunday as "the Sabbath."

I don't recall making that reference. Can you show me where I made it?

Post 369:

You forgot the anticipated Mass at 5:30 PM Saturday. So much for keeping holy the Sabbath.

The Third Commandment requires us to “keep holy the Sabbath day”. As you so eloquently pointed out, the Sabbath day and the Sunday are not the same. The Sabbath is the seventh day of the week, and is the day which was kept holy in the Old Law; the Sunday is the first day of the week, and is the day which is kept holy in the New Law.

As with all other Commandments, we are still required to keep holy the Lord’s day which is now Sunday. I never claimed Sunday was literally the same as the Sabbath. I referenced the Third Commandment, and you jumped to conclusions.
