Hello everyone and welcome to part 2 Absolute Proof from the Bible that Saturday is the Sabbath Day! Lets begin shall we.
52 This man went unto Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus.53 And he took it down, and wrapped it in linen, and laid it in a sepulchre that was hewn in stone, wherein never man before was laid.54 And that day was the preparation, and the sabbath drew on. Luke 23:52-54 Good Friday
Saturday
55 And the women also, which came with him from Galilee, followed after, and beheld the sepulchre, and how his body was laid.56 And they returned, and prepared spices and ointments; and rested the sabbath day according to the commandment. Luke 23:55-56 The Sabbath
Sunday
In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre. Matt 28:1 Easter Sunday
The "Preparation Day" for the Jews was the day before the Sabbath day. Jesus was crucified and put to death on this day which we now call "Good Friday" . The Sabbath Arrived at sundown Friday, and lasted till sundown Saturday then on early Sunday morning (the first day of the week) it was discovered that the tomb was empty and Jesus had risen! This is the day we call Easter Sunday. Saturday is the Lord's Sabbath Day! For More proof please read this statement.

The verses you have shared indeed show that we are to observe the Sabbath. However, I disagree as to when Jesus was crucifed and buried.
If we are to accept a Friday burial... how is the sign Jesus gave his disciples to be fulfilled?
Matthew 12:40- For, as Jonah was in the belly of the fish 3 days and 3 nights, so shall the Son of Man be in the heart of the earth 3 days and 3 nights.
There is more than just the weekly sabbath.. a study of the Old Testament shows there are also High Sabbaths. There was a High Sabbath that fell on a Thursday that week.
