Description - Tales for the Seventh Day: A Collection of Sabbath Stories by Nina Jaffe
Every Friday night, many Jewish families perform a ritual that, according to rabbinic literature, or Midrash, existed before the creation of the world. Candles are lit, prayers and blessings are chanted, and a festive meal is shared to honor and celebrate the Sabbath, or Shabbat, the day on which God rested after creating the world. The stories in this rich collection of seven Sabbath tales from around the world will draw readers into the peace, magic, adventure, and harmony that are part of the spirit and ritual of the Sabbath day.
