I have a translation of the New Testament in my hands, in which Revelation 1:10 is rendered as “I was in the Spirit on Sunday”. When I looked up the same verse in some other translations, I saw “I was in the Spirit on the day of the Lord”.
Can anyone, please, comment on this? How much is it permissible to render “the day of the Lord” as “Sunday”, or vice versa? What about original manuscripts? Do they have the word “Lord” there? Do they have the name of a day of the week there?

YES Philip Williams Link Hudson Ricky Grimsley Brett Dobbs John Mushenhouse Neil Steven Lawrence many ol flesh-translations switch it to Sunday. The pope has really gotten into that BIG time and changing Revelation is still a quite the sin

 By the time of the writing of the book of Revelation, the “Day of the Lord“ had become Sunday. No need for any more discussion. Saturday ‘legalizers’ eat ur heart out!

Neil Steven Lawrence while I disagree Kyle Williams argues for an earlier date of Rev. but the internal evidence does speak otherwise. BTW the Greek does NOT say SUNDAY in any way shape or form

Troy Day agreed, but by the end of the first century, when John was exiled on the isle of Patmos, the Lord’s Day, meant the day of Church worship, in which they celebrated the Resurrection day, which would by default be Sunday.

Neil Steven Lawrence I am NOT quite certain by the end of the first century, when John was exiled on the isle of Patmos, the Lord’s Day meant Sunday and I have never really been convinced the Greek means Sunday

When the wrath of the Lamb falls upon this world, what will those days be like in the 7-year Tribulation, this the most horrible of all times? These gritty stories reflecting the Seal Judgments opened in the Book of Revelation will intrigue you, a period more dystopian than any fiction writer can imagine.

Sunday.
The term is different than the term for “the day of the Lord.”

Sunday, as born out by the Greek text, comparing “The Lord’s Day” to “the Day of the Lord.”

Duane L Burgess Greek text? Shows us the Greek text and John Mushenhouse shall translate it @ once

The Lord’s Day and the day of the Lord are different in Greek. Early church writings confirm that early Christians understood the Lord’s Day as the first day of the week.

Yes indeed. Without the Holy Spirit, he cannot reveal anything about the future. Amen!
