JASON TICKTON
Sabbath Greeting
in Our Tradition
BY RABBI SAMUEL J. FOX
(Copyright 1973, JTA, Inc.)
The greeting one extends
to a fellow Jew is different
on the Sabbath than on other
days of the week (e.g. Good
Sabbath or Shabat Shalom,
etc.).
Some claim that this is a
fulfillment of the biblical
command which states: "Re-
member the Sabbath Day to
sanctify it." (Exodus 20:8).
This is interpreted to mean
that one should take special
note of the Sabbath and set
it apart from the rest of the
days of the week. Thus on
the Sabbath day one does
things in a different way.
Even the customary greeting
one extends to a friend is
changed to emphasize and
take note of the special char-
acter of the Sabbath.
Some add to this the re-
quirement that, when one
takes note of the presence of
the Sabbath, one is supposed
to bless it, just as one is re-
quired to bless a King when
one comes into his presence.
Also, the emphasis is placed
on the word "good" to re-
mind everyone that the Sab-
bath is supposed to be a day
of goodness and thus one
ought to extend every effort
to make the Sabbath a good
day. There are some wh:
further point out that, unlike
the week-day when the greet-
ing is different in the morn-
ing (good morning) from that
which it is in the night (good
evening), on the Sabbath
whether day or night, the
greeting is always the same
(git Shabbos, or Shabat
Shalom). This they say is to
emphasize that the Sabbath
is a day of "all light" and
"no darkness."
Thus the Bible, in announc-
ing the arrival of the Sab-
bath, changes its format and
does not say like it says of
the other days of the week
"And it was evening and it
was morning, etc.'
