Sabbath

===High Sabbaths===
{{Main article|High Sabbaths}}
"High Sabbaths" are observed by Jews and some Christians. Seven annual Biblical festivals, called ''miqra'' ("called assembly") in Hebrew and "High Sabbath" in English and serving as supplemental testimonies to Sabbath, are specified in the books of [[Book of Exodus|Exodus]] and [[Deuteronomy]]; they do not necessarily fall on weekly Sabbath. Three occur in spring: the first and seventh days of [[Pesach]] ([[Christian observance of Passover|Passover]]), and [[Shavuot]] ([[Pentecost]]). Four occur in fall, in the seventh month, and are also called ''Shabbaton'': [[Rosh Hashanah]] ([[Feast of Trumpets (Christian holiday)|Trumpets]]); [[Yom Kippur]], "Sabbath of Sabbaths" ([[Christian observances of Yom Kippur|Atonement]]); and the first and eighth days of [[Sukkoth]] ([[Christian observances of Jewish holidays#Christian Feast of Tabernacles|Tabernacles]]). "High Sabbaths" is also often a synonym of "[[High Holy Days]]", viz., Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur.
