רַבִּי חֲנִינָא מִיעֲטֵף וְקָאֵי אַפַּנְיָא דְמַעֲלֵי שַׁבְּתָא, אָמַר: ״בּוֹאוּ וְנֵצֵא לִקְרַאת שַׁבָּת הַמַּלְכָּה״. רַבִּי יַנַּאי לָבֵישׁ מָאנֵי מְעַלּוּ (שַׁבָּת) [וּמִיכַּסֵּי], וְאָמַר: ״בּוֹאִי כַלָּה, בּוֹאִי כַלָּה״. רַבָּה בַּר רַב הוּנָא אִיקְּלַע לְבֵי רַבָּה בַּר רַב נַחְמָן. קָרִיבוּ לֵיהּ תְּלָת סָאוֵי טַחְיֵי. אֲמַר לְהוּ: מִי הֲוָה יָדְעִיתוּן דְּאָתֵינָא? אֲמַרוּ לֵיהּ: מִי עֲדִיפַתְּ לַן מִינַּהּ?
The Gemara now returns to the issue of delight in and deference to Shabbat. Rabbi Ḥanina would wrap himself in his garment and stand at nightfall on Shabbat eve, and say: Come and we will go out to greet Shabbat the queen. Rabbi Yannai put on his garment on Shabbat eve and said: Enter, O bride. Enter, O bride. The Gemara relates: Rabba bar Rav Huna happened to come to the house of Rabba bar Rav Naḥman. They brought before him three se’a of oiled biscuits. He said to them: Did you know I was coming and prepared all of this in my honor? They said to him: Are you more important to us than Shabbat? The biscuits were prepared in deference to Shabbat.
דָּבָר אַחֵר, לָמָּה בֵּרְכוֹ, רַבִּי בֶּרֶכְיָה וְרַבִּי דוֹסְתָּאי וְרַבִּי שְׁמוּאֵל בַּר נַחְמָן. רַבִּי בֶּרֶכְיָה וְרַבִּי דוֹסְתָּאי אוֹמְרִים שֶׁאֵין לוֹ בֶּן זוּג, חַד בְּשַׁבַּתָּא, תְּרֵי, תְּלָתָא, אַרְבַּעְתָּא, חַמְשָׁא, עֲרוּבְתָּא, שַׁבַּתָּא לֵית לָהּ בֶּן זוּג. רַבִּי שְׁמוּאֵל בַּר נַחְמָן אָמַר שֶׁאֵינוֹ נִדְחֶה, יוֹם טוֹב נִדְחֶה, יוֹם הַכִּפּוּרִים נִדְחֶה, שַׁבָּת אֵינָהּ נִדְחֵית. תָּנֵי רַבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן בֶּן יוֹחָאי, אָמְרָה שַׁבָּת לִפְנֵי הַקָּדוֹשׁ בָּרוּךְ הוּא, רִבּוֹנוֹ שֶׁל עוֹלָם לְכֻלָּן יֵשׁ בֶּן זוּג, וְלִי אֵין בֶּן זוּג. אָמַר לָהּ הַקָּדוֹשׁ בָּרוּךְ הוּא כְּנֶסֶת יִשְׂרָאֵל הִיא בֶּן זוּגֵךְ. וְכֵיוָן שֶׁעָמְדוּ יִשְׂרָאֵל לִפְנֵי הַר סִינַי אָמַר לָהֶם הַקָּדוֹשׁ בָּרוּךְ הוּא זִכְרוּ הַדָּבָר שֶׁאָמַרְתִּי לְשַׁבָּת, כְּנֶסֶת יִשְׂרָאֵל הִיא בֶּן זוּגֵךְ, הַיְנוּ דִּבּוּר (שמות כ, ח): זָכוֹר אֶת יוֹם הַשַּׁבָּת לְקַדְשׁוֹ.
Another interpretation: Why did He bless it [Shabbat]? Rabbi Berekhya and Rabbi Dostai and Rabbi Shmuel bar Naḥman, Rabbi Berekhya and Rabbi Dostai say: It is because it does not have a partner. Sunday has Monday [as its partner], Tuesday has Wednesday, Thursday has Shabbat eve. But Shabbat has no partner. Rabbi Shmuel bar Naḥman said: It [the blessing of Shabbat] is in that it cannot be postponed. Festivals may be postponed, Yom Kippur may be postponed, but Shabbat cannot be postponed. Rabbi Shimon ben Yoḥai taught: Shabbat said before the Holy One blessed be He: ‘Master of the universe, all of them [the other days] have partners, but I do not have a partner.’ The Holy One blessed be He said to it: ‘The congregation of Israel is your partner.’ When Israel stood before Mount Sinai, the Holy One blessed be He said to them: ‘Remember the matter that I said to Shabbat: The congregation of Israel is your partner.’ That is the meaning of the statement in the Ten Commandments: “Remember the Shabbat day to keep it holy” (Exodus 20:8).

(1) Come, let us sing joyously to the LORD, raise a shout for our rock and deliverer; (2) let us come into His presence with praise; let us raise a shout for Him in song! (3) For the LORD is a great God, the great king of all divine beings. (4) In His hand are the depths of the earth; the peaks of the mountains are His. (5) His is the sea, He made it; and the land, which His hands fashioned. (6) Come, let us bow down and kneel, bend the knee before the LORD our maker, (7) for He is our God, and we are the people He tends, the flock in His care. O, if you would but heed His charge this day: (8) Do not be stubborn as at Meribah, as on the day of Massah, in the wilderness, (9) when your fathers put Me to the test, tried Me, though they had seen My deeds. (10) Forty years I was provoked by that generation; I thought, “They are a senseless people; they would not know My ways.” (11) Concerning them I swore in anger, “They shall never come to My resting-place!”

(1) Sing to the LORD a new song, sing to the LORD, all the earth. (2) Sing to the LORD, bless His name, proclaim His victory day after day. (3) Tell of His glory among the nations, His wondrous deeds, among all peoples. (4) For the LORD is great and much acclaimed, He is held in awe by all divine beings. (5) All the gods of the peoples are mere idols, but the LORD made the heavens. (6) Glory and majesty are before Him; strength and splendor are in His temple. (7) Ascribe to the LORD, O families of the peoples, ascribe to the LORD glory and strength. (8) Ascribe to the LORD the glory of His name, bring tribute and enter His courts.

(1) The LORD is king! Let the earth exult, the many islands rejoice! (2) Dense clouds are around Him, righteousness and justice are the base of His throne. (3) Fire is His vanguard, burning His foes on every side. (4) His lightnings light up the world; the earth is convulsed at the sight; (5) mountains melt like wax at the LORD’s presence, at the presence of the Lord of all the earth. (6) The heavens proclaim His righteousness and all peoples see His glory. (7) All who worship images, who vaunt their idols, are dismayed; all divine beings bow down to Him. (8) Zion, hearing it, rejoices, the towns of Judah exult, because of Your judgments, O LORD. (9) For You, LORD, are supreme over all the earth; You are exalted high above all divine beings. (10) O you who love the LORD, hate evil! He guards the lives of His loyal ones, saving them from the hand of the wicked. (11) Light is sown for the righteous, radiance for the upright. (12) O you righteous, rejoice in the LORD and acclaim His holy name!

(1) A psalm. Sing to the LORD a new song, for He has worked wonders; His right hand, His holy arm, has won Him victory. (2) The LORD has manifested His victory, has displayed His triumph in the sight of the nations. (3) He was mindful of His steadfast love and faithfulness toward the house of Israel; all the ends of the earth beheld the victory of our God. (4) Raise a shout to the LORD, all the earth, break into joyous songs of praise! (5) Sing praise to the LORD with the lyre, with the lyre and melodious song. (6) With trumpets and the blast of the horn raise a shout before the LORD, the King. (7) Let the sea and all within it thunder, the world and its inhabitants; (8) let the rivers clap their hands, the mountains sing joyously together (9) at the presence of the LORD, for He is coming to rule the earth; He will rule the world justly, and its peoples with equity.

(1) The LORD, enthroned on cherubim, is king, peoples tremble, the earth quakes. (2) The LORD is great in Zion, and exalted above all peoples. (3) They praise Your name as great and awesome; He is holy! (4) Mighty king who loves justice, it was You who established equity, You who worked righteous judgment in Jacob. (5) Exalt the LORD our God and bow down to His footstool; He is holy! (6) Moses and Aaron among His priests, Samuel, among those who call on His name— when they called to the LORD, He answered them. (7) He spoke to them in a pillar of cloud; they obeyed His decrees, the law He gave them. (8) O LORD our God, You answered them; You were a forgiving God for them, but You exacted retribution for their misdeeds. (9) Exalt the LORD our God, and bow toward His holy hill, for the LORD our God is holy.

(1) A psalm of David. Ascribe to the LORD, O divine beings, ascribe to the LORD glory and strength. (2) Ascribe to the LORD the glory of His name; bow down to the LORD, majestic in holiness. (3) The voice of the LORD is over the waters; the God of glory thunders, the LORD, over the mighty waters. (4) The voice of the LORD is power; the voice of the LORD is majesty; (5) the voice of the LORD breaks cedars; the LORD shatters the cedars of Lebanon. (6) He makes Lebanon skip like a calf, Sirion, like a young wild ox. (7) The voice of the LORD kindles flames of fire; (8) the voice of the LORD convulses the wilderness; the LORD convulses the wilderness of Kadesh; (9) the voice of the LORD causes hinds to calve, and strips forests bare; while in His temple all say “Glory!” (10) The LORD sat enthroned at the Flood; the LORD sits enthroned, king forever. (11) May the LORD grant strength to His people; may the LORD bestow on His people wellbeing.
