HAVDALLAH: Shabbat closes with the cermony of havdallah as the new week is brought in with blessings over wine and spices. The third blessing , Hamavdil, blesses God for separating between the sacred and the profane, light and darkness, Israel and the other nations, and between the seventh day and the six days of creation. Afterwards, all are wished a Shavua' tov, a good week, and the new week begins. (12.5" x 18")(H003)
