Shabbat
Shabbat
We love it. Do you know why? Because it happens every week. It's the only holiday that's even commanded by the Ten Commandments: "Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy." It begins on Friday evening and ends on Saturday at sunset. Its beginning and end are separated by a ceremony called Havdalah, during which blessings are recited and Kiddush wine is drunk. Shabbat is a holiday of rest. No work, no obligations, no worries. Just prayers, peace, contemplation, and shared time with our loved ones.
How we celebrate: With several services where prayers specifically for Shabbat are recited. And what happens between them? It varies, but mainly no work is done, nothing that's common on a weekday. There are 39 prohibited activities. Instead, there's a lot of talking, singing, playing games, and going for walks. In short, Shabbat tranquility.
What we eat: Given that shopping and cooking are not allowed on Shabbat, preparations can be quite hectic. Quickly clean up, cook several meals, and especially in large quantities because guests often come. And what is eaten? Challah, sweet pastries, cookies, meat, fruit, vegetables. And also gefilte fish, cholent, or kugel. It's at least three courses, it's good, eating takes a long time, there's talking, singing, and wine, grape juice, or lemonade is sipped alongside.
What we wish each other: Most often "Shabbat shalom," meaning "Peaceful Shabbat." Sometimes also "Gut Shabbos," meaning "Good Shabbat."
