For Puritans, the Sabbath was a day of strict religious observance and rest. They believed in keeping the Sabbath holy by attending church services, refraining from work, and engaging in activities that focused on worship and spiritual matters.

Sabbath is a set period of time observed from 20 minutes before sunset on Friday until 40 minutes after sunset on Saturday. While nothing is truly necessary to "close" sabbath per se, orthodox Jews will pray the evening prayers and perform a ritual called "Havdalah", which means separation. This is meant to distinguish between the holiness of the sabbath and the mundaness of the week. Sabbath observant Jews will perform the havdalah ceremony before resuming week like activities (i.e. driving, making calls, turning on lights). However from a strict Jewish law perspective, one may simply say, "Sabbath is over" to legally start activities, provided that the 40 minutes after sunset has passed.
You may be thinking of Judaism, but the description you use is quite a ragged one. The Jewish sabbath begins a short time before sundown on Friday, and ends a short time after twilight on Saturday. But that is by no means the only time when Jews worship.
