Shabbat

Dressy clothes.

Christians who exercise faith in Christ's ransom do not try to gain salvation by engaging in activity that may gain them God's favour. Instead they rest from their own works of justification as it says at Hebrews 4:9-11 "As it is, however, there still remains for God's people a rest like God's resting on the seventh day. For those who receive that rest which God promised will rest from their own work, just as God rested from his. Let us, then, do our best to receive that rest, so that no one of us will fail as they did because of their lack of faith" (Good News Bible)

So for Christians every day of the week is set aside to exercise faith.

"Sabbath" is another one of those words that came from Hebrew by way of King James.

The Hebrew pronunciation is "shah-BAHT".

You're welcome. Someone else will have to supply the Greek.

After that, Shabbat is a quiet time: no phones, radio or TV (etc.), just schmoozing, taking walks, visiting friends, reading, learning Torah, playing board games, etc. Husband and wife, in particular, finally have a chance to be together after a hectic week.

It is God who told us to worship on the sabbath. He created the universe in 6 days and rested on the seventh day. This seventh day is called the sabbath. He did not rest because he was tired but as an example of what we need to do.

Basically, it has the same significance as it did when first given to Adam and Eve. It is a day of rest and remembrance for mankind of God and His Creation.

After the fall of both the Northern and Southern Kingdoms of Israel/Judah, primarily due to their disregard for the Sabbath Law (see Jeremiah 17:21-22; Ezekiel 20:12, etals), the Jews were determined not to commit this same error again. They began to make 39 new definitions of what not to do on this day - with its minutia, it became over 200 restrictions and totally burdensome for anyone. Jesus came to clearly show how both the physical and spiritual intent of the Sabbath Law was to be followed. He did not come to destroy the Law but to fill it to its full intent (Matthew 5:17-18). All disciples of Christ follow the Sabbath.

The Bible speaks of a Millennial Rule of Christ in the Book of Revelation. In a larger sense, this 1,000 year period is a Sabbath rest in itself. God's laws will be written upon our hearts which will no longer be of 'stone.' Christ and His firstfruits will be there to insure we Focus on the Father and live by every word of God.

Yes. It's the Jewish day of rest.

Jews are taught to think of the Sabbath as a gift from God or a beautiful bride. The feeling one is supposed to feel when the Sabbath comes is the feeling a groom has when he sees his bride. The bride is a figure of speech and not a real being. There is only one God.

If the fruit is cut finely on Shabbos, it is the melacha of mechatech (chopping; cutting). If the fruit are crushed on Shabbos, it is the melachah of tochen (grinding).

However, as the melachat of cooking food מלאכת בישול is forbidden during Shabbat, it is not possible to make jam as the fruit must be cooked.

more than 1 million people worship Judaism.

Havdalah is the ceremony which marks the end of the Sabbath or a holiday. The ceremony always includes a prayer and the drinking of a cup of wine. At the end of the Sabbath, a blessing is also said on smelling spices or a fragrant plant, and on a candle.

You can have a havdalah B'nai Mitzvah service.

it is a holy day

Before sundown Friday night to after sundown Saturday night. Consult a local orthodox rabbi for specific times as it changes weekly depending on nightfall in your area.

A Jewish calendar website can help with that.

I live near a kosher deli that's open on Saturday and closed on Sunday. I don't know about selling and buying back, but you can call the restaurant to ask about it.

That is an accepted practice for a kosher restaurant. Normally, the restaurant is 'owned' by a gentile employee over Shabbat and the takings for that day go toward their salary.

The head of the household says the kiddush blessing the sabbath (and similar prayers are said on Jewish holidays as well). These prayers essentially explain the background for the holiness of the day, and also include a blessing for the food which is about to be consumed.

At every meal a (generally silent) prayer is said thanking G-d for supplying the food. Separate prayers are said before eating bread, other foodstuffs, fruit and wine. On Sabbath and holidays, the head of the household says the prayer over wine or bread symbolically to indicate the entire meal, and the appropriate prayers are repeated silently by all the other participants.

Note that in Non-Orthodox households, there is no gender requirement for who says what blessing. Furthermore, in Orthodox households with only one gender (a widow with daughters, for example) there is also no gender requirements for who says what blessing.

All laws relating to the Shabbat can be broken if a life depends upon doing so - for example, during labour when the baby could be harmed if the mother did not push or if a Jew was to see someone in any form of danger.

Different religions have different days of rest. Muslims have their day of rest on Friday, Jews have their day of rest on Saturday, and Christians have their day of rest on Sunday.

The sabbath is a weekly holiday - every Friday at sunset til Saturday at sunset. Passover lasts for 8 days and occurs in the Spring, so there is always a shabbat during Passover.

Religiously observant Jews would not board a plane if Shabbat were to start while in transit. The issue wouldn't be landing during Shabbat, the issue would be flying during Shabbat.
