In Jewish tradition, the Seventh day of the week is a special time of communion with God and spirituality. It is called Shabbos, or Shabbat, the day of rest. On this day we emulate that which the Creator did when He was involved in His creation. He spent six days in creative mode, and the seventh was a time for reflection on all He had done. This corresponds to the Kabbalistic concept of the male (which is represented by the number six), and the female (which is the number seven). The Jewish people are called the bride of God, and therefore, the special laws of Shabbos constitute a special covenant between God and Israel. This podcast seeks to study these laws, in all their intricate details, so we can fully develop our connection and relationship with God on this special day.

We discuss what is considered carrying and therefore prohibited between private and public domains, and what is not considered carrying, and is therefore permitted.
We discuss the concept of the Shituf Mavu'os, which makes it possible to carry from one courtyard to another when they share an alleyway leading to them.
We discuss the concept of Eruv, which combines the homes that open on to a single courtyard, so that one may carry from one home to the other, via the shared private area.
We discuss the different types of bottle caps and which are permitted and prohibited to open, and how one can open the prohibited ones in a permissible manner.
Although the electricity in Israel is produced by Jews on Shabbos, which is a desecration of Shabbos, there is a lenient opinion, on which one can rely, to make use of electricity on Shabbos. The Chazon Ish, however, opines that it is prohibited, nonetheless.
