Shabbat ends of its own accord at the time a bit after sunset on Saturday night. Nothing that mankind does can either extend it or cause it to end. Those who observe the Shabbat can only mark its beginning and its end as they occur. The brief ceremony and set of blessings that mark the very end of shabbat are known as "HAHV-da-LAH", meaning "division" or "boundary" in Hebrew. It marks the boundary between holy and weekday-like. The moment is considered to be a let-down.

What is a shabbat meal?

After Friday night services and on Shabbat morning after services, we come home, often with guests, make kiddush (blessing over wine) and a blessing over two loaves of bread, and have a leisurely multi-course Shabbat meal including singing and words of Torah. Customarily, that week's Torah-reading (parsha) will be a topic of conversation; and the children of the family will have a chance to speak of what they've learned in school. Eating the traditional Shabbat meals is a mitzva (a Torah-precept), to which the sages of the Talmud (Shabbat 117b) found an allusion in the Torah (Exodus 16:25).
