The literal translation of the hebrew word havdalah is 'separation'. In Jewish practice it's a ritual that bids farewell to the twenty-five hours of Shabbat and prepares us for the week to come which is greeted with the words shavuah tov. Since it is now Friday afternoon, and I will soon be down for the count (at least for the next twenty-five hours) until I hope to photograph another Havdalah, I wish you all a wonderful weekend, and to those who care, Shabbat Shalom (peaceful day of rest).
