Seems like it should be the last day of the week.

I know the answer probably goes back to the bible or some shite but making Sunday the first day of the week was clearly a mistake.

Because the Sabbath is Saturday, therefore the next day is the first day of the week. FWIW, I always think of Sunday as the end of the week, and for all practical purposes the rest of the English speaking world does, too.

I thought about this the other day. Doesn't make much sense to me.

I don't think I'll do it. Too many repercussions if she denies my advance.

Something like "On the seventh day, he rested" comes to mind.

The actual answer is because we understand it is the day of the week Jesus rose from the dead
