When Did the Jewish Day Begin? (Plus: Vigil Masses!) | The Jimmy Akin Podcast

The Jimmy Akin Podcast | Episode 031 (April 28, 2025) Catholics can fulfill their Sunday obligation by going to Mass either on Sunday itself or on Saturday evening. Jewish people often reckon the day as beginning at evening, so are the two practices connected?
