Answer #1:
The seventh-day of the week, Saturday. Exodus 20:8-11 says, Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days shalt thou labor, and do all thy work: But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.
Additional Information:
God instituted the sabbath day at creation by creating another day at the end of the week for us to rest and spend in special communion with Him. This day is the seventh day (our Saturday). This is the only day that God has ever blessed and set aside for holy use.
Another thing to remember is that the seventh day sabbath was instituted BEFORE any sin came into this world. Therefore it was God's intention for the sabbath day to be eternal. And this is confirmed in Isaiah 66 where it says that we shall worship God every sabbath day for all eternity.
The Biblical sabbath is the seventh day of the week (our Saturday).

Answer #2:
Everyone agrees that the Sabbath Day is the seventh day of the week.
The debate arises in the attempt to determine whether that day is our
Saturday or our Sunday.
The thing about it that always intrigues me is how the same culture and
society
that settled on Sunday as the seventh day prints its business and social calendars
with Sunday in the first column, and Saturday in the seventh one.
In Judaism, it is Saturday, the seventh day. [the day when God rested] On this holy day, the Israelites weren't supposed to do any work, but to rest and pray to God. The Sabbath day is the seventh day of the divinely inspired repetitive seven-day week that God commanded be set aside for holy use (sanctified) for man to rest from his labors to REMEMBER CREATION. Remember his Creator and remember his dependence upon his Creator. Otherwise... if man didn't remember creation - then, he would forget about it.
For Christians it is Sunday, the first day of the week, in honour of the Resurrection.

# Jews do not use electricity on the Sabbath(TVs, cars, etc). # Jews do not cook on the Sabbath. # Jews do not write on the Sabbath.
When God first made the world, it took six days then rested on the seventh day. As part of the rules of Judaism, HaShem commanded that we honour the 7th day with a day of rest, this is called Shabbat. Shabbat starts sundown Friday and ends sundown Saturday. During Shabbat, Jews prayer and refrain from the 39 forms of work specified in the Torah.
It's mostly Orthodox Jews.

Saturday is the Sabbath in Judaism. Orthodox (and some non-orthodox) Jews will not work. Many non-Orthodox Jews will work, but still remember the Sabbath day in their own ways. (And yes, there are some Orthodox Jews that work on Saturdays, but they do not advertise this fact).
Sabbath begins at sundown on friday evening and ends at nighfall the next day. That whole time is called sabbath.
No, the day for the Sabbath is set in the 10 commandments as Saturday.
anything that does not involve the work done to build the original tabernacle.
