Why do you sing on shabbat?

Singing on Shabbat is a way to enhance the spiritual atmosphere and create a sense of joy and community. It helps to elevate the day, marking it as special and distinct from the rest of the week. Through song, we express gratitude, celebrate the sanctity of the Sabbath, and connect more deeply with our faith and fellow congregants. Additionally, music can foster a sense of peace and reflection, enriching the Shabbat experience.
