means A day set apart from work for rest and worship, observed weekly in Jewish and some Christian traditions.
from From Hebrew 'shabbat,' meaning 'to cease' or 'to rest,' rooted in the verb for stopping an activity. It traveled through Greek 'sabbaton' and Latin 'sabbatum' into English, carrying the same core idea the whole way: stop what you're doing.
