Mi•shᵊpât•im 4th Eve

“So these are the Mi•shᵊpât•im:”

(Amalgamated Tribal Laws/​Tza•diq•ūt)

Nonpareil Quintessence of é‑‑ä

B.C.E. 1st century — Rabi Hi•leil, when asked by a gentile to be converted while the Rabi stood on one foot, replied: "That which you eschew, don’t inflict on your fellow! That's the entirety of Tōr•âh. What remains is pei•rush•âh. Now, go-weave your lifetime-learning-practice.”

ë''ç Sha•bât

praying smiley yitgadal i2SymbolFor six days you shall your work; but on the seventh day you shall Sha•bât so that your work-animal and your transportation-animal, and the son of your maid and the geir, may rest and refresh their nëphësh.


Optional parental preparation:

  1. Can the child count to six, and then Sha•bât/​seven? In Hebrew? To a melody? (Suggest melody of Hebrew alephbet song)

  2. What does the Hebrew under the Smiley face read?

  3.   23.12, Sha•bât – When even work animals are covered by Sha•bât, how does this square with the rabbinic approval of a "Shabbos goy"? Aren't goy•im also children of é‑‑ä, and above work animals?Return to text

Questions you might anticipate that your child might raise and be prepared to discuss:

  1. What is a work animal? A transportation animal? (What was their importance before tractors, cars, trucks, trains and airplanes were invented? How long ago were these invented? How long before that were the Biblical times?)
