Object Lesson: The Sabbath Table - The Jewish Museum


Video from thejewishmuseum


"Hear from Ethiopian Jewish chef, activist, and owner of Tsion Café, Beejhy Barhany, as she explores the multi-sensory rituals involved in welcoming the Sabbath. Paired with a close look at Isidor Kaufmann’s 1920 painting "Friday Evening" from the Jewish Museum’s collection, consider the multiple ways people around the world mark this weekly observance and how these external gestures reflect an internal state of mind. Video by SandenWolff." from video introduction
