Question
Hello, I am a gentile with question about Shabbat. Thank you for your time and emotional energy A friend of mine, whom is a Christian, uses the term Shabbat to describe his Christian prayer group, that gathers on Sunday night. They read the Old Testament and talk about g-d and rest. They gather and spend time as friends. I argued with him that using this phrase and this practice is inappropriate. In my understanding, Judaism is a closed practice and there are certain elements that should not be performed or used by non-Jews. It morphed into a pretty big argument between us with his point being that Jews cannot “own” the concept of rest and Shabbat. I want to be sure I am not incorrect. I do not want to be sharing false information. I have googled extensively and I am seeing so many Christians talking about Shabbat or Sabbath. I don’t remember this being a thing when I was growing up Christian. Thank you for your time.

Question
Dear Rabbi, I was watching the funeral of a fallen Israeli soldier the other day at the military cemetery at Mount Herzl in Jerusalem. It was sad and I’m sure mine were not the only dry eyes. While watching, I remember hearing a custom for anyone who visits a grave to place a small stone on the headstone. What is the reason for this practice? Thanks, Rabbi!
