Well the day apparantly matter so much that God made note of it in Genesis, this was long befoere there was a religious covenant.
Also we must rembember that the Israelites kept the Sabbath way before there was a covent, for the covenant was establish at Mount Sinai, but the Sabbath was kept before that event.
So we know that before there was a religious covenant the day DID matter.
If something is establish only under a religious convenant, the rightfully it can be discarded when the covenant is not longer binding, but if something is established before the religous covenant, then it is rigth to assume that it still is valid, since it was established before.
The fact that the Sabbath was later added to the law with more instructions does not negate its validity.
