- O.E. sabat "Saturday," observed by the Jews as a day of rest, from L. sabbatum, from Gk. sabbaton, from Heb. shabbath, from shabath "he rested." The Babylonians regarded seventh days as unlucky, and avoided certain activities then; the Jewish observance may have begun as a similar custom. From the seventh day of the week, it began to be applied c.1410 to the first day (Sunday), a change completed during the Reformation. The original meaning is preserved in Sp. Sabado, It. Sabbato, and other languages' names for "Saturday." Sabbat "witches' sabbath" is 1652, from the Fr. form of sabbath, a special application of the word. Sabaoth (M.E.) is from Heb. sebaoth "hosts," plural of saba "army," a word originally left untranslated in the New Testament and "Te Deum" in the designation Lord of Sabaoth, often confused with sabbath. ...Английский Этимологический словарь
