Well, I doubt that the Bible ever mentions "Saturday" or "Sunday" by
those names. But it's clear, isn't it?, that the crucifixion (Good
Friday) was on the "day of preparation", i.e. the day before the "day of
rest" -- which is still called something like `sabbat' in some Romance
languages as well as Hebrew.
