Three Ways to Bring Shabbat Home

Shabbat is the Jewish holiday that is celebrated each week. Its roots lie in the biblical story of creation when God rested on the seventh day after creating the world.

There are almost as many ways to observe Shabbat as there are people, but the celebrations usually feature pleasure (oneg), community (kehillah), and rest (menucha). Each week, celebrating Shabbat is an opportunity for your family to reconnect, slow down after a busy week, and enjoy each other's company – and if one week doesn't work out as you’d hoped, the next opportunity is only a few days away.
