What is shabbat in Jewish religion?
The Jewish sabbath begins at sundown on Friday and ends at sundown on Saturday. It is practiced because it is one of the commandments given by God to the Jews in the Torah. The Torah is the first five books of the Bible (Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Dueteronomy) which traditional Jews believe were given directly from God to Moses. The Sabbath (shabbat in Hebrew) is mentioned in numerous places in the Torah -- in Genesis, Exodus, and Dueteronmy the Jews are commanded to "remember the sabbath day and keep it holy ... six days shall you labor and do all of your work but the seventh day is a sabbath to the Lord your God, you shall not do any work ..." The Sabbath is a reminder of the creation story in the Bible -- God worked for six days to create the world and rested on the seventh. To remember this, Jews also rest completely on the seventh day. Traditional Judaism contains a legal system called halacha. This legal system defined the word "work" (melacha in Hebrew) in a very broad way. 39 different types of labor are forbidden on the sabbath -- everything from pruning to lighting a fire to writing to cooking. Orthodox Jews maintain these rules quite strictly. As new technology is introduced, there are many discussions about whether it violates one of the 39 categories of labor and whether the technology can be used on shabbat. Orthodox Jews do not drive, use electricity or phones, go to work, write, touch or use money from sundown Friday to sundown Saturday. It is a day of complete rest -- people go to synagogue, pray, eat meals that were prepared before the sabbath, meet with friends, study religious topics, sing, sleep, take walks and similar activities. In modern times, liberal Jews understand the idea of shabbat as a time for rest and reflection but they do not necessarily follow all of the rules above. This is one of the main dividing lines between Orthodox Judaism and more liberal forms of Judaism. Keeping shabbat strictly (being shomer shabbat) is one of the signs of being an Orthodox Jew.

Jesus did not change the Sabbath day from the 1st day of the week (Saturday) to the 2nd day (Sunday). Christians traditionally observe Sunday as the day of worship and rest to commemorate Jesus' resurrection on a Sunday, but this does not replace the importance of the Sabbath day for those who observe it on Saturday.
