In traditional Judaism, a synagogue serves as a communal place of worship and study, where congregants gather for prayer and religious education. The Sabbath, or Shabbat, is a weekly day of rest observed from Friday evening to Saturday evening, during which Jews refrain from work and engage in spiritual activities, family meals, and prayer services at the synagogue. Kosher refers to dietary laws that dictate which foods are permissible and how they must be prepared, emphasizing the importance of holiness and mindfulness in daily life. Together, these practices reflect the core values of community, rest, and adherence to divine commandments in Jewish tradition.

Traditional Jews don't only go on Saturdays. They go up to 3 times a day, every day. Most Jews go to synagogue on Saturday because it's the 7th day of the week, and Jews believe the 7th day is a day of rest (called the Sabbath). It's a special day with good food, study, prayer, and lots of socializing.
