Shabbatnik
Moishe House was founded in 2006 with a Shabbat dinner in Oakland, California, attended by 73 people. Since then, the vision has spread all over the globe, a vision of communities led BY young people FOR young people. At the heart of this vision is Shabbat, the Shabbat table, YOUR Shabbat table. According to Jewish tradition, Shabbat is one of the most important holidays for the Jewish people. Every Friday night – week in and week out – Jews around the world light the candles and sit around their tables. We celebrate our week, traditions, communities, families, and the Mystery we call God. It is our hope that this Shabbatnik will be a companion to you at your Shabbat table. We at Moishe House see the blessings and traditions as a means of helping to bring the Shabbat atmosphere into your homes. But in the end, the Shabbatnik is only a book; for Shabbat to come alive, you must welcome it in and make it yours. May this Shabbatnik serve you and your Shabbat table for many years. May every page have many stains of wine, and may small pieces of food get stuck in the binding. May you find time at the end of your week to experience warmth and joy, family, and community. May this Shabbat, like every Shabbat, be the best day of your week. Shabbat Shalom! Your Moishe House family

Meditation Shabbat is coming. Before you light the candles, take a moment to take a few deep breaths. (Take 3 deep breaths) It’s been a long week...a long week of work, or school, or simply of life. There has been so much going on, so many things to complete, so many emails to answer, so many Facebook statuses to update. But, for the moment, let’s just breathe… (Take 2 deep breaths) Feel the weight of the week on your neck and shoulders. Stretch your neck and shoulders – the troubles, the problems, the stress, let them roll off you, even just a little bit. Imagine the burden lifting off your shoulders. Raise your arms in the air. See if you have become any lighter. With your arms stretched high in the air, breathe. (Take 2 deep breaths) Feel Shabbat lifting you up, nothing to weigh you down, the possibilities of the day as limitless as the sky. On your next exhale, lower your arms down to your sides.
Inhale altogether. Exhale altogether and be prepared to fly.

Candle Lighting Shabbat traditionally begins about 18 minutes before sundown and many Jews bring in Shabbat with the light of the Shabbat candles. Some people light one or two candles and in some families, candles are lit for each member of the household. In many households, women light the Shabbat candles, but Jewish law dictates that everyone – of any gender – must ensure that candles are lit in their home as Shabbat begins. The light of Shabbat candles permeates our soul. After you light the Shabbat candles and say the blessing, take a deep breath. Shabbat has arrived. The week has passed.
The time has come for your body and soul to rest. ָבּרוְּך ַא ָתּה ה׳ ֹלהינוּ ֶמלֶ ְך ֵ ֱא ָהעוֹלָ ם ֲא ֶשׁר ִק ְדּ ָשׁנוּ ְבּ ִמצְ ָותיו וְ צִ וָּ נוּ לְ ַה ְדלִ יק .נֵ ר ֶשׁל ַשׁ ָבּת

Blessed Are you, Source of Light, mystery of the universe, who has commanded us to light the Shabbat candles.

Shalom Aleichem Shalom Aleichem is a song many sing as everyone gathers around the Shabbat table to begin the festive meal. It is meant to welcome the presence of Shabbat into our midst. As you sing this song and look around the table, may you be blessed that every Shabbat be equally as wonderful.

As one goes home for Shabbat dinner, two angels follow, a bad angel and a good angel. When one arrives home, if the table is set, the candles are lit, and you are ready to welcome Shabbat into your house, then the good angel says, “May Every Shabbat be like this,” and the bad angel is forced to answer “Amen.” If, when one arrives home, the House is in a state of disarray – then the bad angel says, “May Every Shabbat be like this,” and the Good Angel is forced to say “Amen.” -Talmud, Tractate Shabbat 119b
Ice Breaker Look around the table at all the amazing people who have come to welcome Shabbat into this home. Take this opportunity to get to know everyone around your table. Have everyone introduce themselves. At a Shabbat meal, we should all feel like old friends, even if we just met. This Shabbat, and every Shabbat, may you be surrounded by such amazing friends, new and old.

Shabbat Evening Kiddush It is a Mitzvah to say (or hear!) Kiddush, the sacred prayer of Shabbat, over a cup of wine or grape juice. Some people say it standing up; others, sitting down. One person can hold the Kiddush cup, while everyone else can answer Amen, when appropriate. It is during Kiddush that we fulfill the basic commandment of Shabbat – to remember the creation of the world and the Exodus from Egypt. Every week, we are thankful that we were given life, and every week, we celebrate our continued freedom to be who we are.

It was evening and it was morning. The sixth day. And the heavens and the earth and all they contain were completed. And on the seventh day God completed the labor performed, refrained on the seventh day from all the labor which God had performed. And God blessed the seventh day and made it unique, because on it God ceased from the work of creation.

In love and favor, You have given us Your holy Shabbat as an inheritance. Blessed are You, Adonai our God, who sanctifies the Shabbat.

Shabbat Day Kiddush On Friday night, we recite Kiddush, or the blessing over the wine, as a part of the commandment from the Torah to sanctify Shabbat. On Shabbat day, we are also commanded to sanctify Shabbat – but this time, the commandment comes from the Rabbis. In fact, many of our Mitzvot are separated between those that are Biblical (D’orayta) and those that are Rabbinic (D’Rabanan). As you say or hear Kiddush, try to imagine your ancestors who came before you. See yourself as one who inherits the tradition and crafts the future. Allow yourself to be awed by the weight of the moment, and allow the beauty of this tradition to fill your cups with warmth.
וְ ָשׁ ְמרוּ ְבנֵ י יִ ְשׂ ָר ֵאל ֶאת לַ ֲﬠשׂוֹת ֶאת,ַה ַשּׁ ָבּת :ַה ַשּׁ ָבּת לְ דֹר ָֹתם ְבּ ִרית עוֹלָ ם ֵבּינִ י ֵוּבין ְבּנֵ י יִ ְשׂ ָר ֵאל אוֹת ִהיא כִּ י ֵשׁ ֶשׁת יָ ִמים ﬠָ ָשׂה,לְ עוֹלָ ם ה׳ ֶאת ַה ָשּׁ ַמיִ ם וְ ֶאת ָה ָא ֶרץ ַוּביּוֹם ַה ְשּׁ ִב ִיﬠי .ָשׂ ַבת וַ יִּ נָּ ַפשׁ

The children of Israel should keep Shabbat, observing Shabbat throughout their generations, as an everlasting agreement. It is a sign between Me and the people of Israel forever, that in six days God made the heavens and the earth, and that on the seventh day God rested and was renewed.

Remember Shabbat to keep it holy. You should labor for six days and do all your work, but the seventh day is Shabbat for Adonai your God. You may not do any creative work, neither you, your son, your daughter, your worker, your animal, nor the stranger who dwells among you. Because it was in six days that God made the heavens and the earth, the sea and all that they contain, and God rested on the seventh day.

Netilat Yadayim After everyone has sipped from the wine/juice, many engage in Netilat Yadayim – the ritual washing of the hands. At the sink, use a cup to pour water over each hand at least two times before reciting the blessing below. We wash our hands for both practical and spiritual purposes. It is customary Before this point, we had been using our hands for texting, to not speak after for driving, for holding a Siddur or for opening a door. Netilat Yadayim, until Now, we signify that our hands are prepared to provide us with
sustenance.

L’Chaim! Take a minute to think about the week that has passed. What was...
Good ?
Happy ?
Scary ?
Amazing ?
As you eat your meal, take the chance to have everyone at the table share one good thing that happened to them this past week. Shabbat is a time to reflect on the good in our lives, and to try and bring that goodness into the week to come. L’chaim!

Blessed are You, Adonai, for the land and for the sustenance.

Have mercy, Adonai our God, upon Israel Your people, upon Jerusalem Your city, upon Zion the abode of Your glory, upon the kingship of the house of David the anointed one, and upon the great and holy house over which Your Name was proclaimed. Our God, our Parent, tend us, (On Shabbat and festivals: our Shepherd,) nourish us, sustain us, feed us, and provide us with plenty; and speedily, Adonai our God, grant us relief from all our afflictions. Adonai our God, please do not make us dependent upon the gifts of mortal men nor upon their loans, but only upon Your full, open, holy, and generous hand, that we may never be shamed or disgraced.

On Shabbat: May it please You, Adonai our God, to strengthen us through Your mitzvot, and through the mitzvah of the Seventh Day, this great and holy Shabbat. For this day is great and holy before You, to refrain from work and to rest thereon with love, in accordance with the commandment of Your will. In Your good will, Adonai our God, bestow upon us tranquility, that there shall be no distress, sadness, or sorrow on the day of our rest. Adonai our God, let us see the consolation of Zion Your city, and the rebuilding of Jerusalem Your holy city, for You are the Master of deliverance and the Master of consolation.

Havdallah While Havdallah marks the end of Shabbat, it does not end Shabbat. Shabbat finishes all by itself. The holiness of the day enters our midst, and then it leaves. And just like when someone we care about leaves us too soon or too quickly, a post-Shabbat sadness can often linger. Havdallah is a ceremony of transition, filled with symbols that overwhelm the senses. It helps us to find joy in the face of sorrow, light in the face of darkness. Through Havdallah we prepare ourselves for the week ahead and remind ourselves that another Shabbat is only a week away. Think of one thing you are looking forward to in the week ahead. Now, allow the Havdallah ceremony to make you emotionally and spiritually prepared to make all your hopes into reality. The Havdallah Candle is lit and then we sing or chant:

Behold, God is my constant help; I will trust in God and will not fear. Adonai is my strength and song; my Deliverer. With joy shall you draw water out of the wells of salvation. Adonai alone is our help; May God bless God's people. Adonai with the entire cosmos is with us; The God of Jacob is our protection. (Say together) There was light and joy, gladness and honor for the Jewish people. So may we be blessed. I will lift the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of Adonai. Three symbolic objects are used for Havdallah: wine, spices, and a multi-wick candle. Together they are a feast for the senses -- taste, smell, hearing, sight, and touch – to help us remember the joy, sweetness, and light of Shabbat as we enter the week. We raise the cup of wine and together we say the blessing.
ֹלהינוּ ֶמלֶ ְך ֵ ָבּרוְּך ַא ָתּה ה׳ ֱא ׳.בּוֹרא ְפּ ִרי ַהגָּ ֶפן ֵ ָהעוֹלָ ם
Baruch Ata Adonai, Eloheinu Melech Ha’olam, Borei Pri Hagafen.
We praise You, Eternal God, Sovereign of the universe: Creator of the fruit of the vine. We raise the spice-box and together say the blessing. Afterward, the spices are passed around so that everyone may have a chance to smell their sweetness.
ֹלהינוּ ֶמלֶ ְך ֵ ָבּרוְּך ַא ָתּה ה׳ ֱא .בּוֹרא ִמינֵ י ְב ָשׂ ִמים ֵ ָהעוֹלָ ם Moishe House
Baruch Ata Adonai, Eloheinu Melech Ha’olam, Borei Minei b'samim.

We praise You, Eternal God, Sovereign of the universe: Creator of the world's spices. As the Havdallah candle is raised, we hold out our hands to see the reflection of the light in our fingernails, and to see the shadows that our fingers cast on the palms of your hands. By doing this, we take in a little bit of the light of Shabbat, and see the distinction between light and dark.
ֹלהינוּ ֶמלֶ ְך ֵ ָבּרוְּך ַא ָתּה ה׳ ֱא ׳.אוֹרי ָה ֵאשׁ ֵ בּוֹרא ְמ ֵ ָהעוֹלָ ם
Baruch Ata Adonai, Eloheinu Melech Ha’olam, Borei M'orei Ha'eish.
We praise You, Eternal God, Sovereign of the universe: Creator of fire. This final blessing of Havdallah reminds us of the many separations in the world around us:
ֹלהינוּ ֶמלֶ ְך ֵ ָבּרוְּך ַא ָתּה ה׳ ֱא ַה ַמּ ְב ִדּיל ֵבּין ק ֶֹדשׁ,ָהעוֹלָ ם ֵבּין,חוֹשְׁך ֶ ְ ֵבּין אוֹר ל,לְ חוֹל ֵבּין יוֹם ַה ְשּׁ ִביﬠִ י,יִ ְשׂ ָר ֵאל לָ ַﬠ ִמּים .לְ ֵשׁ ֶשׁת יְ ֵמי ַה ַמּ ֲﬠ ֶשׂה ,ָבּרוְּך ַא ָתּה ה׳ ׳.ַה ַמּ ְבדּיל ֵבּין ק ֶֹדשׁ לְ חוֹל
Baruch Ata Adonai, Eloheinu Melech Ha’olam, Hamavdil Bein Kodesh L'chol, Bein Or L'choshech, Bein Yisrael La'amim, Bein Yom Hash'vi'i L'sheishet Y'mei Ha-ma'aseh. Baruch Ata Adonai, Hamavdil Bein Kodesh L'chol.
We praise You, Eternal God, Sovereign of the universe: You make distinctions, teaching us to separate between the commonplace and the holy; You create light and darkness, Israel and the nations, the seventh day of rest and the six days of labor. We praise You, O God; You call us to distinguish the commonplace from the holy.
