Shabbat


 

Shabbat (שבת shabbāṯ, "rest" in Hebrew, or Shabbos in Ashkenazic pronunciation), is the weekly day of rest in Judaism. It is observed, from before sundown on Friday until after nightfall on Saturday, by many Jewish people with varying degrees of involvement in Judaism. It is the source for the English term Sabbath, the Arabic day Sabt (السبت), and for concepts such as Sabbatical.
