주일의 시작은 언제부터인가?

Sunday begins at sunset on Saturday evening, in accordance with the custom of the Christian communities that originated in Judaism. The Fatehers of the Chruch -St. Augustine and St. Leo the Great, for example - emphasize this point in dealing with the faithful of Africa and Rome, because these were accustomed to a different way of calculating the successive days. When authorization was given to celebrate Sunday mass on Saturday evening for pastoral reasons, this was consonant with the practice of the early Christian generations.
