SHABBAT
Also know as the Sabbath.
Shabbat
"Remember Yom Shabbat, to keep it holy." - Exodus 20:8 (TLV)
The weekly or seventh day Shabbat or Sabbath is the first of the Appointed Times established by G-D in Leviticus 23. As the first of these Feasts of the L-RD the Shabbat became the foundation for all of the Feasts to follow. As the Heavens and Earth were created and completed in seven days this basis on which the calendar was established. At Brit Ahm we celebrate weekly Shabbat to demonstrate our faith in G-D’s creative power and in His redemption power.
