The moment Shabbos begins isn’t as simple as sunset. Rav Shlomo Katz learns from Peninei Halakha about the halachic weight of twilight—bein hashmashot—and how it shapes the way we welcome in the holy day.

We explore how this in-between time carries deep significance, both legally and spiritually. Because knowing when Shabbos begins helps us know how to begin Shabbos.
