How do we know Shabbat is on Shabbat?

(1/3) > >>

Eliezer Ben Avraham:
I was just thinking like how do we know that what we consider the 7th day (Saturday) is actually what G-d considered the 7th day?
How do we know that Shabbat isn't really on Friday (like friday is really the 7th day of the week according to G-d)?
I was also thinking like about the Six day war in terms of this idea, and does anyone think it's possible that June 12th 1967 (Which was a Sunday) is actually the 7th day of the week? like in 6 days G-d worked for us and then he rested?
I was just thinking about these things, not trying to create trouble or anything but just a bit curious.

Tzvi Ben Roshel1:
because it was allways observed since Moshe by the majority of the nation.

I heard an answer that it is a tradition going back from the time of Adam. Passed down and accepted, if not  by the whole world, then all over the world.

That's an easy one to answer!

The interval period of time beginning when the Forum closes, and ending when the Forum reopens...

That is when the Sabbath is!

Accept no substitutes!
