I have a theory that because Christian worship was so incompatible with Jewish worship they would have been forced out of the synogogs and would have been forced not to do anything that would violate the Jewish concept of the sabbath. Hence the only time permitted to celebrate freely as Christians would have been the Sunday which also gave them an out from having to be involved in other pagan worship rituals.But if he was buried late in the day on Friday he would have risen late in the day on Monday. Jesus made it absolutely clear that he would be in the 'grave' for 72 hours.
There is no biblical evidence of Sunday being consecrated as "The Lord's Day", or for any special purpose for that matter.
The Lord's Day, or Day of the Lord, is when Christ returns, and brings 'smoke' (hurts people and breaks stuff).
“His people” in all the verses you quoted are the biological descendants of Jacob/Israel that entered into the Mosaic Covenant on Mount Sinai.God said His Sabbath is a sign between Him and His people and it is a perpetual covenant
'Zat Jerry in your avatar? Playing a banjo, no less?...Because that's reserved for the Sabbath.

Of course scripture came from the Jews (except maybe the part that Luke wrote, but that is debated).
The specific Covenant that you are quoting (Exodus and Deuteronomy) was between God and the dependents of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. I am not a descendent of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob ... so that covenant was not made with my fathers nor with me. I have no promise of land in the Middle East, I have no prohibition on shaving.
Jesus came to institute a better Covenant based on better promises. A covenant available to Jews and Gentiles alike. I am saved by the grace of God into the New Covenant.
This is not rocket science. You should know whether you are a descendent of Jacob/Israel or not. You should know if your ancestors were led out of Egypt and into the promised land or not. You should know if you trust in the Law of Moses and your birthright, or if you trust in the Blood of Christ and grace of God ... for your Salvation.
So by your philosophy there is no law and we are free to sin? It’s okay to vain His name or lie and you think that is okay in Gods eyes? What’s the point of the Bible than if it is one free for all?“His people” in all the verses you quoted are the biological descendants of Jacob/Israel that entered into the Mosaic Covenant on Mount Sinai.
If you wish to keep the Law, then you must keep all 613 laws. Break even one and you are guilty of them all.
I trust that you are not wearing blended fabrics or cutting your hair!

"Jesus" is now the Sabath. There are no particular days now. .
Which is greater: Jesus Christ rising from the dead or the Sabbath?
Jesus died Friday and rose Sunday:
[Luke 24:1, 13, 18-25 NASB]
1 But on the first day of the week, at early dawn, they came to the tomb bringing the spices which they had prepared. ...
13 And behold, two of them were going that very day to a village named Emmaus, which was about seven miles from Jerusalem. ...
Q8. Is the whole of the Bible your word...or just some of it?
A8. All of it. Acts of the Apostles 20:7.
I have read the verses that speak of the time period, between the death and resurrection. There are three possibilities; in three days, on the third day, and after three days.But if he was buried late in the day on Friday he would have risen late in the day on Monday. Jesus made it absolutely clear that he would be in the 'grave' for 72 hours.

The Lord's Day, or Day of the Lord, is when Christ returns, and brings 'smoke' (hurts people and breaks stuff).
The 8th day ( Sunday) is the day of resurrection .

Old and in the Way (3:52)
1) Because Jesus rose from the Dead on Sunday as testified by the early Church.
2) Because of the 8th day Typology in the Bible and its significance to the Church.

Please do not state, "72 hours", when the accounts vary so much.
1 Corinthians 15:4
And that He was buried, and that He was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures.
Raised on the third day and not after the third day!
Jesus died Friday and rose Sunday:
[Luke 24:1, 13, 18-25 NASB]
1 But on the first day of the week, at early dawn, they came to the tomb bringing the spices which they had prepared. ...
13 And behold, two of them were going that very day to a village named Emmaus, which was about seven miles from Jerusalem. ...
18 One [of them,] named Cleopas, answered and said to Him, "Are You the only one visiting Jerusalem and unaware of the things which have happened here in these days?" 19 And He said to them, "What things?" And they said to Him, "The things about Jesus the Nazarene, who was a prophet mighty in deed and word in the sight of God and all the people, 20 and how the chief priests and our rulers delivered Him to the sentence of death, and crucified Him. 21 "But we were hoping that it was He who was going to redeem Israel. Indeed, besides all this, it is the third day since these things happened. 22 "But also some women among us amazed us. When they were at the tomb early in the morning, 23 and did not find His body, they came, saying that they had also seen a vision of angels who said that He was alive. 24 "Some of those who were with us went to the tomb and found it just exactly as the women also had said; but Him they did not see." 25 And He said to them, "O foolish men and slow of heart to believe in all that the prophets have spoken!
Friday: Jesus was tried, crucified and buried before sunset (the start of Sabbath)
Saturday: Sabbath, the women unable to finish anointing the corpse.
Sunday: First day of the week. The third day since Jesus was arrested, tried and crucified. Women return to the tomb with spices and find it empty. Apostles visit tomb and find it empty. Jesus appears to disciples on road to Emmaus.
See the story of Queen Esther calling for prayer for another example of three days including part of a day rather than a full 72 hours.
