κατὰ μίαν σαββάτου ἕκαστος ὑμῶν παρʼ ἑαυτῷ τιθέτω θησαυρίζων ὅ τι ἐὰν εὐοδῶται, ἵνα μὴ ὅταν ἔλθω τότε λογεῖαι γίνωνται. 

KATA MIAN SABBATOU hEKASTOS hUMWN PAR' hEAUTWi TIQETW QHSAURIZWN hO TI EAN EUODWTAI, hINA MH hOTAN ELQW TOTE LOGEIAI GINWNTAI

No, I don't think so.  It seems that this expression follows the model of Gen 1.5 in the LXX where we read

 καὶ ἐκάλεσεν ὁ θεὸς τὸ φῶς ἡμέραν καὶ τὸ σκότος ἐκάλεσεν νύκτα. καὶ ἐγένετο ἑσπέρα καὶ ἐγένετο πρωί, ἡμέρα μία. 
KAI EKALESEN hO QEOS TO FWS hHMERAN KAI TO SKOTOS EKALESEN NUKTA.  KAI EGENETO hESPERA KAI EGENETO PRWI, hHMERA MIA

It would therefore be "day one of the week."

1 Cor.16:2: KATA MIAN SABBATOU ...

Does anyone know of a secular example of this phrase where EIS (MIAN) is 
used as an ordinal number?  The various Bible translations that I have all 
state: "On the first day of every week."

Couldn't the phrase simply mean: "On one day of the week", rather than 
specifying a particular day?

Thanks,
Denise Parkes
