The Bible never tells us which day the Sabbath occurs. Certainly the Old Testament does say that the Sabbath should be honoured on the seventh day, but which is the seventh day? Assuming that God really did create the world in six days and rested on the seventh, how would they have known that Saturday was the seventh day, rather than Wednesday? the Bible does not tell us and merely assumes that the Hebrew people knew which day this was. Remember that the start of the week is only a convention.
It seems likely that Christian Churches adopted Sunday as their Sabbath because the Bible gives that as the day of Jesus' resurrection, whether or not the Bible instructed them to make the change.

Does the fourth commandment mean Saturday or Sunday when it refers to the seventh day?
The Sabbath of the Bible is Saturday. Christians adopted Sunday as their holy day when their cult absorbed the sun-god Mithras, whose day is Sunday, naturally. Christianity also took the Nativity story and many other important images from Mithraism. The Bible did say that Saturday is the Sabbath not Sunday. It says so in the fourth commandment "remember the seventh day to keep it holy". And Saturday is the seventh day, not Sunday. God rested on the seventh day, but Jews rest on Saturday, their sabbath. Christians (are meant to) rest on Sundays. EDIT: I believe that Sunday is the Sabbath, which would explain why Latino Cathloics start their week on monday, just as God did... Now Christians and Catholics celebrate the sabbath on Sunday, and Jews on Saturday, so it depends on how you interpret it, but I feel Sunday is the seventh day... EDIT: Sunday may seem like the seventh day. But if you really think about it, our calender is different from the Jewish calender and our calender states that Saturday is the seventh day, so the fourth commandment may be stating to the day of Saturday as the seventh day. Sunday, even thought Saturday is the 7th day, technically

For Jews, this is not true. Shabbat starts Friday at sundown and ends Saturday at sundown as specified in the Torah. For Christians, it is not called the sabbath day.
