Shabbat Shuvah (“Sabbath [of] Return” שבת שובה) refers to the Shabbat that occurs during the Ten Days of Repentance between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. This Shabbat is named after the first word of the Haftarah (Hosea 14:2–10) and literally means “Return!” — a play on, but not to be confused with, the word Teshuvah (repentance). Some communities also read additional passages from Joel and Micah. A lengthy rabbinical sermon is traditionally given to the congregation in the afternoon.
