The Shabbos Companion – Shabbos Day

description of book The Shabbos Companion – Shabbos Day Shabbos can, and should be the high point of our week, putting the days just past into their proper perspective and preparing us to face the challenges that lie ahead. But you have to know how to use it. You have to know how to draw upon its power to nurture and strengthen, spiritually as well as physically. Here is a companion to show us how. It is a companion for our prayers, a book that gives us a new and deeper understanding of the words we recite each Shabbos. It includes the Hebrew and English text of each selection, with explanations, stories and selected laws. It is a companion for our table, with Hebrew and English text of many of the zemiros, together with a story-filled commentary. It is a companion at our Kiddush and at our festive Shabbos meals, including fascinating tales of Shabbos observance in times gone by. By Rabbi Abraham Twerski. Artscroll, hardcover, 380 pages
