I don't believe a calender would have anything to do with it. Calenders and days were made by man. I doubt a god would adhere to it. I believe it would simply mean to rest one day every seven days, no matter which day you started counting on. If you start working on a Wednesday, the following Wednesday is your Sabbath.

Sabbath Saturday...it was never chanced......Only by the chuch...Is the churches words bettaer than the word of God.
Well according to Christianity, Mary Magdalene was the first to discover Jesus's tomb to be empty with the stone missing on Sunday. This is the reason why Sunday is the Sabbath day for Christians.
saturday is the day not sunday. in saturday the word sat meaning to rest.the word Saturday comes from the old version of the day which was Saturn`s day from the pagan 7 day calander (a calander that came way before the judo christian one)which had one day for each known planet(five at that time) + one for the sun and one for the moon

finti, you seem to have a lot of knowledge. What would you say is the meaning of a 'day of rest' when one is an atheist like myself?
We were talking about the day of rest as mentioned in the Bible...If you follow what is written that's one thing or possibly another... but if your an atheist to you either way it shouldn't matter.

I keep every day holly; being a Buddhist, I chant and perform Gongyo every morning and every evening. I other words, I pray and read my holly book twice a day, every day.
In case you want to know more about Gongyo:

Then should a mere man (pope) have the right to change it from Saturday to Sunday? Changing the 4th commandment that was written in stone.
