What is 'The Lord’s Day' in Revelation 1:10


Dr. Couch, what is “The Lord’s Day” in Revelation 1:10. John said he “was in the Spirit on the Lord’s Day.” Is this Sunday? 
 
   ANSWER: The word Lord (kuriake) is used as an adjective. John is writing something like: “I was with (under the influence) of the Spirit in a Lordy kind of day.” He is not saying this is Sunday or Sabbath. His point is that it was a very special day because in it, he received very specific and direct revelation from the Spirit of God! The Lord was addressing him with the final book of the Bible! 

    Thanks for asking.
