Proof That Shabbat is on Saturday

Shalom all

Can someone PLEASE direct me to some verses in the Torah, that proves that Shabbat is one Saturday.

Toda

Dr. Dan:
Interesting...Saturday is considered the 7th day of the week to Jews.  In the Torah it is written that Gd rested on the 7th day and said it was good. Furthermore, in the 10 commandments is goes into how Jews shoudl rest on the 7th day.


Now, how do we konw that Satuday is the actual 7th day and not Monday?  Does it matter?  A 7th day has been chosen and has been kept...if it was proven it was Tuesday, I don't think it would make sense to change it.

Boeregeneraal:
it would be interesting to hear what Lubab has to say about it

Tzvi Ben Roshel1:
If G-d gave the instrunction to Moshe and the nation to keep Shabb-t, He would of-course say when Shabb-t was (even though even before that they knew), and from that time on the over-welming majority kept Shabb-t, so it cant possibly have been confused with monday or sunday. You can also see that all Jews from different parts of the globe all know when Shabb-t is and when wensday is. + each day, the day in counted in the prayers (each day has its own special prayer included).
