Sabbath or שבת (Sha'boss) in Hebrew is celebrated on the 7th day of every week because the Christians and Jews believe that God created the world in 6 days and on the 7th day He rested and therefore so do His people. For Jews the Sabbath is celebrated on Saturday because that is the 7th day of the week in the Jewish calender, for Christians the 7th day is Sunday.
