Your discription and defination of Shabbat is beautiful. I am not of the Jewish faith but I have been drawn to it since I was a young child. I have several friends of Jewish faith and decent. Your words are like a beautiful song; sweet, loving, kind and comforting.

I am the 3rd generatin sabbath observer that i inhereted from my grand parents and parents. I am a yuropian. I wonder if i am a Jewish desendant. we dont keep the sabbath with candles,but we keep it very strikly from sun down friday night to sun down saturday night wich is named after the planet Saturn. We are told in the TORA to observ the new moon[ the crescent] and then count six working days,and the 7th is the Shabbath acordin to the Creator who criathed us. The 7th time of from the observing the new moon. Is that the way we must keep the sabbath, becouse that is the day that YHWH Blesed and sanctified. I dont want to do nothing with the pagan holly days , and sun worship, sunday, or even saturday. I want to obey the Creator who created the sun and the moon that we may observe the TORA,and the appointed feast and shabbats acording to the moon . Please reply, what you think. Thank you .

Not being close to a synagogue or other Jewish people, I find I look forward to Chabad.org's weekly Parashah commentaries much as I would imagine those in close communities would each week. Saturday afternoons are my weekly Torah study times.
Thank you.

There is nothing to be compared to the peace of the Shabbat!
