Collection: Shabbat

The Sabbath, which begins Friday at sundown and ends Saturday at sundown, is a day of refreshment for body and spirit.  It is a time celebrated with fresh enthusiasm each week.

At least two candles must be lit, representing the first two words of the commandments concerning the Sabbath; "Remember" and "Observe."  

Once the candles are lit, a blessing is recited over a full cup of wine, symbolizing overflowing joy and bounty.
