Since the <a href="/wiki/Hebrew_calendar" title="Hebrew calendar">Jewish religious calendar</a> counts days from sunset to sunset, Shabbat begins in the evening of what on the <a href="/wiki/Civil_calendar" title="Civil calendar">civil calendar</a> is <a href="/wiki/Friday" title="Friday">Friday</a>. </p><p>Shabbat observance entails refraining from <a href="/wiki/39_Melachot" class="mw-redirect" title="39 Melachot">work activities</a>, often with <a href="/wiki/Shomer_Shabbat" title="Shomer Shabbat">great rigor</a>, and engaging in restful activities to honor the day. Judaism's traditional position is that the unbroken seventh-day Shabbat originated among the Jewish people, as their first and most sacred institution. Variations upon Shabbat are widespread in Judaism and, with adaptations, throughout the <a href="/wiki/Abrahamic_religions" title="Abrahamic religions">Abrahamic</a> and many other <a href="/wiki/Religions" class="mw-redirect" title="Religions">religions</a>. </p><p>According to <i><a href="/wiki/Halakha" title="Halakha">halakha</a></i> (Jewish religious law), Shabbat is observed from a few minutes before the sun sets on Friday evening until the appearance of three stars in the sky on Saturday night, or an hour after sundown.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Shabbat is ushered in by lighting candles and reciting blessings over wine and bread. Traditionally, three <a href="/wiki/Seudat_mitzvah#Seudat_Shabbat_and_Seudat_Yom_Tov" title="Seudat mitzvah">festive meals</a> are eaten: The first one is held on Friday evening, the second is traditionally a lunch meal on Saturday, and the third is held later Saturday afternoon. The evening meal and the early afternoon meal typically begin with a blessing called <i><a href="/wiki/Kiddush" title="Kiddush">kiddush</a></i> (<i>sanctification</i>), said over a cup of wine. </p><p>At the third meal a <i>kiddush</i> is not performed, but the <i>hamotzi</i> blessing is recited and <i><a href="/wiki/Challah" title="Challah">challah</a></i> (braided bread) is eaten. In many communities, this meal is often eaten in the period after the afternoon prayers <i>(<a href="/wiki/Minchah" class="mw-redirect" title="Minchah">Minchah</a></i>) are recited and shortly before Shabbat is formally ended with a <i><a href="/wiki/Havdalah" title="Havdalah">Havdalah</a></i> ritual. </p><p>Shabbat is a festive day when Jews exercise their freedom from the regular labours of everyday life. It offers an opportunity to contemplate the spiritual aspects of life and to spend time with family. The end of Shabbat is traditionally marked by a ritual called Havdalah, during which blessings are said over wine (or grape juice), aromatic spices, and light, separating Shabbat from the rest of the week.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Etymology">Etymology</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Shabbat&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Etymology"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Biblical_Sabbath#Etymology" title="Biblical Sabbath">Biblical Sabbath § Etymology</a></div> <p>The word <i>Shabbat</i> derives from the Hebrew root <a href="https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%D7%A9%D6%BE%D7%91%D6%BE%D7%AA#Hebrew" class="extiw" title="wiktionary:ש־ב־ת">ש־ב־ת</a>.
