all of that knowledge of the
Holy Creator that is within
the capacity of mortals.

Eating Fish on Sabbath
By RABBI SAMUEL FOX
(Copyright 1981, JTA, Inc.)
Jewish tradition calls for
eating some kind offish food
on the Sabbath.
A great number of expla-
nations have been offered to
rationalize this tradition.
From a practical point of
view it has been suggested
that fish in old e n times
must have been a luxury
food. Traditionally a Jew
saves the most luxurious
food for the Sabbath. Thus,
fish were saved to be eaten
during the Sabbath.
It is also possible that to
eat both fish and meat at the
same meal was indeed once
a luxury. At times when
such luxuries could not be
afforded during the week
this was reserved for the
Sabbath.
Others claim that fish is
eaten on the Sabbath be-
cause the Sabbath is
supposed to be a sample
of the Messianic age. In
the Messianic age the
righteous are supposed
to enjoy the meat of the
great fish, the Leviathan.
In addition, fish have al-
ways been a good sign in
Jewish life. They have been
a symbol of great numbers
in reproduction which is
considered a blessing.
Fish have been viewed as
a blessing because the Al-
mighty's blessing was bes-
towed on the products of His
creation only on the fifth,
sixth and seventh day of
creation. Since the first of
these days (i.e., the fifth)
was the day on which the
fish were created, the bless-
ing of the Almighty is said
to have started with the ap-
pearance of the fish.
God made the human
body, and it is the most ex-
quisite and wonderful
organization which has
come to us from the divine
hand.
