Reason: Added a clarification in point 1

A few things that I want to point out and correct in this theory.

  1. "Adonai" is the Hebrew word for Master, not the name of the Creator, or the God of the bible if you like. Yod-Hey-Vav-Hey, 4 Hebrew consonants that are widely debated in how that name would be pronounced, are translated to English as "the LORD". Lord, or Master, is a title and not a name. Most translations stay away from any attempt to translate the name of the Creator, but I can show you a few places that have. It is a difficult name to translate because there are no vowels in it so there are many different theories. Similar to how the name of "Jesus" is an english translation of a greek translation of a hebrew name (Likely Yehoshua, short form is Yeshua, but even that is debated in some circles).

  2. The Sabbath day was given as an act of creation prior to any worship of heavenly bodies. Following the account in the bible, the Sabbath is instituted immediately after the creation of man. In Hebrew tradition, the days of the week are simply called "Day 1, Day 2, Day 3, Day 4, Day 5, Day 6, Sabbath", they are not acknowledged by the common names. Your point that each day of the week represents a planet is not an indication that the Creator intended for it to be understood that way. It is a man-made device based off of idol worship, the exact kind that the Creator God spoke against

"And when you look up to the sky and see the sun, the moon and the stars—all the heavenly array—do not be enticed into bowing down to them and worshiping things the LORD your God has apportioned to all the nations under heaven." Deut 4:19

In this verse the "Lord" is warning against worshiping the heavenly bodies. That hardly makes sense if he is the "Saturn god" as this post theorizes.

  1. The 10 commandments were not given to the Jews, they were given to Israelites. Prior to the division of the nation of Israel there were no people group called "Jews". Once Israel as a nation was divided as a result of the reign of King Solomon, there were two "Houses". One was called the House of Israel, the other was called the House of Judah. Those in the House of Judah were called Judeans or Jews for short. The people who received the 10 commandments could be considered ancestors of those who would eventually be called Jews, but not Jews themselves. The 10 commandments were given to the Hebrews that left Egypt and to many "strangers and foreigners" (people from other nations, not just descendants from Abraham-Isaac-Jacob) who left Egypt at the time of the Exodus with the Hebrews.

  2. God did not tell Israel to worship on Saturn-day, he told them to worship on the Sabbath day, the seventh day of the week. The pagan "overlords" that have directed society for thousands of years named the days of the week and the months after their gods in direct defiance to the Most High God who created all things.

There is much more historically and biblically that we can look at to show that this theory is incorrect. A good place to start, OP, could be the history of the Council of Laodecia and the amalgamation of paganism into the Messianic belief at the time of Constantine and the formation of the Roman Catholic Church.

My view, that I have constructed on the shoulders of historians and scholars and solid biblical teaching, is that the paganism we see in our society today, most notably in the catholic church, and the timing/history of mainstream christian holidays like Christmas and Easter are distortions of the truth that the Most High God intended. This normalization of paganism in the world and the church is a ground-breaking study that I think is really worth digging into. How modern "Judaism" ties into that is another area worth studying.

Another tidbit, God warns his people not to worship the sun, the moon and the stars and we see the Star of David, the Moon in the symbol of Islam and the Sun at the centre of Catholicism. The catholic church and the pope are also responsible for changing the 10 commandments including the day of worship from the 7th day to "sun"day and allowing idols to built, notably their sun pillars.
