Is sabbath day Sunday?
Many Christians keep Sabbath on Sunday the first day of the week. The Jewish Sabbath starts Friday at sundown and ends Saturday at sundown, the 7th day of the week. Another View: The majority of Christians observe Sunday, the first day of the week, and may refer to it as 'Sabbath' designating it as a day of rest. Many point to the resurrection of Jesus for the reason for this change from the Biblical Sabbath, the seventh day of the week. The Biblical Sabbath is Saturday, the seventh-day of the week. Jews and over 18 million Christians observe this day. They observe it according to the Biblical commandment from sundown Friday to Saturday at sundown. In over 140 different languages the seventh-day of the week, which we call Saturday, uses the term translated 'Sabbath' or 'rest".

Does it matter if churches celebrate the sabbath day on Sunday?
God is not the author of confusion. May I ask, where is it in the new covenant that anyone should observe any holy day? Sabbath observance was strictly for the Hebrew of the OLD TESTAMENT that was observed, kept, Mosaic law. Law-keeping, which no man can do was afforded only to the Hebrew through the Abrahamic covenant..NO Gentile could ever keep Mosaic law, and still cannot. Remember the sabbath, keep it Holy, is the 4th commandment of Mosaic law...... to the Hebrew in the Old covenant. The Hebrew/ Jewish Sabbath is Friday at Sundown, to Saturday at sundown. The way it was kept was to do absolutely nothing but rest... .
Why is the Torah important in sabbath day?
The Torah establishes the Sabbath with commandments to keep the Sabbath day, to remember the Sabbath day, and constraining what may be done on the Sabbath. And, in the Jewish liturgy that emerged from this framework, the Sabbath morning service includes a Torah reading where, traditionally, about 1/52 of the Torah is read, so that over the course of the year, every Jew who attends Sabbath services on a regular basis will hear (and, we hope, learn from) the entire Torah.
How does one keep the sabbath?
Sabbath is a set period of time observed from 20 minutes before sunset on Friday until 40 minutes after sunset on Saturday. While nothing is truly necessary to "close" sabbath per se, orthodox Jews will pray the evening prayers and perform a ritual called "Havdalah", which means separation. This is meant to distinguish between the holiness of the sabbath and the mundaness of the week. Sabbath observant Jews will perform the havdalah ceremony before resuming week like activities (i.e. driving, making calls, turning on lights). However from a strict Jewish law perspective, one may simply say, "Sabbath is over" to legally start activities, provided that the 40 minutes after sunset has passed.
