Shalom! Classical
Judaism requires that the Shabbat and Jewish Holidays be "honored" in a
variety of
ways that go beyond the customary prayers and Torah readings in synagogues. It is customary to bathe on Fridays and dress in one's finest clothing in honor of the Shabbat (kavod Shabbat)
and to purchase, prepare and eat the best traditional foods that one
can afford. Formal festive
meals (also known as seudat mitzvah ) are an
important element of Shabbat and holiday enjoyment. Included in the notion of oneg Shabbat
("enjoyment [on/of] Shabbat") is the requirement that warm
foods be
served and eaten and that the dining area be well lit and heated so
that Shabbat dining should be a deliberately enjoyable and pleasurable
experience for everyone partaking of the meals. This is an important
reason why, for example, at the Friday night Shabbat meal hot chicken
soup is traditionally served. The eating of a hot and well cooked tasty
Cholent in particular is the high-point of oneg Shabbat at the main Shabbat lunch meal on late Saturday morning or early afternoon. |
