According to the Word of God, singing on the Sabbath is a way to celebrate and give thanks to God for His creation and laws, including the commandment to observe the Sabbath as a day of rest and worship. In the book of Psalms, it is written: "It is a good thing to give thanks unto the Lord, and to sing praises unto thy name, O Most High." (Psalm 92:1). On the Sabbath, many homes in Israel sing hymns and psalms to express their gratitude and devotion to God, and to help create a spiritual and joyful atmosphere in their homes and synagogues. Singing is also a way of connecting with others and with the Jewish tradition and heritage.

Popular Israeli Sabbath (Shabbat) songs include "Shalom Aleichem," "Lecha Dodi," "Adon Olam," "Eli Eli," and "Yigdal." These songs are typically sung in synagogues and Jewish homes during the Friday night Sabbath meal and in communal prayer services on Saturday mornings.
