11Y vió el cielo abierto, y que descendía un vaso, como un gran lienzo, que atado de los cuatro cabos era bajado á la tierra;
12En el cual había de todos los animales cuadrúpedos de la tierra, y reptiles, y aves del cielo.
13Y le vino una voz: Levántate, Pedro, mata y come.
14Entonces Pedro dijo: Señor, no; porque ninguna cosa común é inmunda he comido jamás.
15Y volvió la voz hacia él la segunda vez: Lo que Dios limpió, no lo llames tú común.

 So the Lord's day is not a common day, but one specially set apart, not as a command, but as the expression of the highest privilege, for the worship of the Lord. (Lectures on Revelation 1: Part 1 by W. Kelly)
 The Christian begins with the Lord's day, that this may as it were give a character to all the days of the week. In spirit the Christian is risen, and every day belongs to the Lord. Therefore is he to bring up the standard of each day that follows in the week to that blessed beginning — the Lord's day. To bring down the Lord's day to the level of another day only shows how gladly the heart drinks in anything that takes away somewhat from Christ. (Lectures on Revelation 1: Part 1 by W. Kelly)

WK Translation Notes

a
The KJV is quite right, "in the Spirit," not "in spirit." The presence of the article does not prove the Holy Spirit to be in question: it may or may not be. In this the article is supplied or omitted, according to the general laws of its usage.
b
I am aware that some deny that the expression "en tē kyriakē" refers to "the Lord’s day," and to argue that it means "the day of the Lord," into which is supposed the prophet was carried forward in spirit. The fact is, however, that, first, the expression is pointedly distinct from the prophetic phrase, "ēmera kuriou" with or without the article; secondly, it is the form constantly and regularly used from the earliest ages to express, according to Christian feeling, the first day of the week, as Jews would say, or Sunday, as Gentiles said. It is as certain as any such matter can be that the meaning is "the Lord’s day," and nothing else.
c
The order of the words "behind me a loud voice" is a little different in the MSS. The sense is unaffected.
