Both. Shabbat has a requirement of resting, but every day has an obligation to pray.

This is what I realize...I just thought I'd ask, as I read something on another thread stating that Shabbat was a day of worship and I thought, that's more a Christian way of looking at our Shabbat...I know that the Orthodox daven 3x a day...All I know is that Shabbat is a day of rest and relaxation...


BTW, when you say Shabbat morning, do you mean the beginning of Shabbat?...

The beginning of shabbat is Friday evening.

On Shabbat there are 4 prayer services but the morning and the musaf/additional prayers are usually said at one longer service.

Yes, I know...However, I am looking at it as how HaShem said it in Beresheet 1...Evening and morning were the first day...So, technically, the evening is the beginning of the day (morning)...At least, this is the way that I am understanding it...

yup
so the date changes in the evening on the Jewish calendar (unlike the secular calendar where the date changes at midnight)

so today during the day is Adar 8
and this evening after sunset will be Adar 9

on the secular calendar today is March 6
and after midnight tonight will be March 7
