Shabbat Shirah
January 31, 2025 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm
Join with community to celebrate a special musical Shabbat. For the past decade plus, we have assembled a TBY band to bring Shabbat Shirah – Sabbath of Song – to our community. On Shabbat Shirah, we celebrate a very special moment in the Torah, a very musical moment in Jewish biblical history. It is the Sabbath of Singing.
Many congregations highlight this Shabbat by creating services brimming with extraordinary music to celebrate Moses and Miriam leading the Israelites across the Sea of Reeds (The Red Sea) and out of Egypt.
On this Shabbat, we read Parashat B’shalach <https://reformjudaism.org/torah/portion/bshalach> from Chapter 15 in the book of Exodus. This section is important for several reasons. It is visually, liturgically and musically important.
Shabbat Shirah gets its name from part of the sedra (weekly Torah reading) known as Shirat HaYam (song of the sea).
Mark you calendar, and join us for a beautifully special Shabbat!
