Sabbath Uplifted
.
The oncoming of the Sab-
bath is attended by an up-
lifting of the heart, its depar-
ture by a gnawing melan-
choly. Farewell to the
glimpse of paradise! Its
hours are treasured for pray-
er, for sacred study, for pur-
ity of conversation and
thought, for the complete
deletion, of course, of world-
ly calculations (it is even for.
bidden to have money in
one's pocket on the Sab-
bath!), for rest, for grati-
tude, and for the impotence
of the outside world to inflict
suffering. Thus it was; the
exile itself was forgotten on
the Sabbath.
This and more is the word
Shabbos in Yiddish. How is
it to be "translated"?-Mau-
rice Samuel, in "The Profes-
sor and The Fossil."
