What’s an Oneg?
Oneg Shabbat, (Hebrew: “Joy of Sabbath”), an informal Sabbath gathering to express outwardly the happiness inherent in the Sabbath holiday. Now more social than religious, the group entertains itself with music, drama, community discussions, lectures, or the singing of religious melodies—all in keeping with the biblical injunction, “and call the Sabbath a delight” (Isaiah 58:13).

Organized by the Family Education Committee of the Jewish Federation of Madison.
