Description

Explores the Sabbath’s origins and purpose, its basis in Jewish texts and traditions, and its meaning for the hurried lives we live today. Even people who have long observed the Sabbath will discover facets they know little about. Takes readers on a journey into understanding this sacred day in its many manifestations. Klagsbrun draws on her extensive knowledge of Judaism and personal experience in applying the lessons of the Sabbath to life today, relying on the Bible, Talmud, Kabbalah, commentaries, and legends. Examines the Sabbath from a female perspective, raising challenging questions about women’s roles in relation to it. Explains the “dos” and “don’ts” surrounding the Sabbath, the symbols of the Sabbath table, and the highlights of the day.
