Answer #1:

On SATURDAY, because if you read your Bible in Exodus chapter 20: 8-11 see

that the fourth commandment speaks of the seventh day is devoted to God. I do not know why the whole Christian world keeps Sunday when it should be on

Saturday. Jesus also said "I did not come to abolish the Law or the Prophets, but to fulfill." Also the Gospels say that Jesus "as usual" was Saturday at the

synagogue. Investigate and see that nowhere is taken on the first day of the

week as holy, always the Seventh, even from the foundation. God says He

rested, blessed and sanctified the Sabbath. Gen 2: 1-3 We have the right to

desecrate us then? The Seventh-day Adventist Church keep the Sabbath as a

day of rest.

Answer #2:

Jewish answer: All Jewish holy days begin at sundown of the previous evening. Thus, the Sabbath begins late Friday afternoon and lasts until Saturday after twilight. There are several holy days in the Jewish ritual calendar, and they occur throughout the year. You may be referring to the days known in English as the "Days of Awe" or the "High Holy Days". Those are the days of the Rosh Hashana (Jewish New Year) and Yom Kippur (Day of Atonement) observances. Rosh Hashanah begins every year on the first day of the month of Tishrei in the Jewish Calendar. September 25 coincides with that date in 2014, whereas in 2015, September 14 does. Another important holy day for Jews is Pesach (Passover). In 2014, Passover (which lasts for eight days) begins at sundown on Monday the 14th of April.
