In this episode of Hashivenu: Jewish Teachings on Resilience, Rabbi Jacob Staub, Ph.D., (https://jewishrecon.org/profile/rabbi-jacob-staub-phd) talks about one of the deepest and best known of Jewish practices, Shabbat. We read about this ancient practice in Genesis, with God creating the world in six days and then resting on the seventh—and from that, we get the concept of a day of rest.Rabbi Staub is a professor of Jewish philosophy and spirituality at the Reconstructionist Rabbinical College (http://www.rrc.edu). He’s written widely on many topics, including a beautiful extended chapter on the Jewish Sabbath in “A Guide to Jewish Practice, Volume 2 – Shabbat and Holidays,” published by the RRC Press (http://stores.jewishreconbooks.org/guide-to-jewish-practice-three-volume-set/).
