Shabbat, the Jewish Sabbath, is observed as a day of rest and spiritual renewal, commemorating God's creation of the world and the day He rested. It is rooted in the biblical commandment to cease work on the seventh day, allowing individuals to focus on family, community, and spirituality. Shabbat serves as a weekly opportunity for reflection, prayer, and connection to tradition, reinforcing cultural and religious identity within the Jewish community.
