Shabbos goy
Shabbos goy, Shabbat goy atau Shabbes goy (Yiddish: שבת גוי, shabbos goy Ibrani: גוי של שבת goy shel shabat) adalah orang non-Yahudi yang melakukan jenis-jenis pekerjaan tertentu (melakha) yang menurut hukum agama Yahudi (halakha) dilarang untuk dilakukan Yahudi pada hari Sabat. Frasa tersebut merupakan sebuah kombinasi dari kata "Shabbos" (שבת) yang artinya Sabat, dan goy, yang artinya "bangsa" tetapi juga dapat berarti "non-Yahudi" (dalam Ibrani Biblikal "goy" artinya "bangsa", tetapi dalam Ibrani Mishnaik digunakan dalam artian "non-nasional", seperti "non-Yahudi"). Kata goy sering dipandang sebagai istilah kasar terhadap non-Yahudi.
Yudaisme melarang Yahudi melakukan jenis-jenis pekerjaan tertentu (yang dikenal sebagai melakha) pada hari Sabat. Dengan mengikuti panduan tertentu (lihat Shulkhan Arukh), non-Yahudi dapat melakukan kegiatan-kegiatan tertentu yang bermanfaat bagi Yahudi tetapi tidak boleh dilakukan oleh Yahudi pada hari Sabat. Terdapat sejumlah pembatasan[1] dan jenis pekerjaan tertentu yang dilarang, seperti pekerjaan membangun.[2]
"Shabbat goy" tidak dibutuhkan jika nyawa seseorang sedang terancam (pikuach nefesh). Para dokter Yahudi harus bekerja pada hari Sabat jika jasa mereka dibutuhkan untuk menyelamatkan nyawa.
Contoh
Pada abad ke-20, Colin Powell, Mario Cuomo, Martin Scorsese, Floyd B. Olson, Harry Truman, dan Elvis Presley remaja membantu tetangga Yahudi mereka dengan cara ini.[3][4][5][6]
