If the week starts on Sunday, why is it God's day of rest?

[Twalli]

God created the world in 6 days and rested on the 7th, yet Sunday (the day of rest) is the start of the week, or Day 1.

You're confused.

Each region has it's own calendar system and way of working it.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_calendars

It'd only the modern standard to have Monday as the "start" of the week.

[USLegionary]

Monday is the start because that's when you ho to work or school

[Twalli]

In the US, Sunday is the start.

Yep. Saturday. Shomer Shabbas. The Jewish day rest. That means that I don't work, I don't drive a car, I don't fucking ride in a car, I don't handle money, I don't turn on the oven, and I sure as shit *don't fucking roll*!

[DizzyDesii]

The week starts on Monday for me lol. I ignore those weird calendars

[DeeDeeDeVour]

Wait!
Hold on...

GOD took His break on the seventh day.

[OfDeath]

That means that I don't work, I don't drive a car, I don't fucking ride in a car, I don't handle money, I don't turn on the oven, and I sure as shit *don't fucking roll*!

Sabbath or Shabbat is Saturday. Pope changed this for Christians in ad321 Pope Constantine

[WhitneySnow]

Cause the original day of rest in the Bible was Saturday

[OfDeath]

The day if rest is actually meant to be Saturday. The sabbath. Shomer fucking Shabbas.

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

Sunday isn't the day of rest. It's Saturday the 7th day.

[purplepoppy]

More importantly why does God need to rest

[NathanDavis]

I'm a Belichick fan... so, no days off

[SnowedIn]

Because calendars are a human creation.

[Redstang88]

I consider Monday the start of the week

[douride2]

Actually Monday is the start of the week.

[Farmerboy2]

Wait. I thought it starts on Monday.
