I believe it calls the seventh day "sabbath".
I don't know if that's a name or a description or both.
But it's certainly the same day we call "saturday"
in the United States.  If you think it's referring to
what we call "sunday", I think you must have lost count
somewhere in the last few thousand years.  ;-)
