The times for the entry and exit of Shabbat for the “Shabbat Chazon” – the Shabbat preceding Tisha B’Av – for the Parshat Devarim portion of the Torah in the year 5786 have been published. This Shabbat is traditionally associated with the Haftarah reading, earning it the name "Shabbat Chazon" ("Vision Shabbat"). Parshat Devarim is always read on the Shabbat immediately before Tisha B’Av, a day of mourning commemorating the destruction of the Temples in Jerusalem. The publication of these times allows observant Jews to properly observe the Sabbath. Details regarding the exact times for candle lighting and the end of Shabbat vary by location and are available through religious authorities. This announcement ensures the Jewish community can prepare for and observe the upcoming Shabbat and the solemn occasion of Tisha B’Av.
