Question
Hello and many blessings, my question is can a Non Jew get married during Shabbat hours? I am Christian and learning about Shabbat, I know it is G-ds 4th commandment is it a sin if I come home late from work on Fridays and also attend my sons wedding Friday night since it falls on Shabbat?
Answer
It's no problem, for the laws of Shabbat are just for the Jewish People, "Between Me and the children of Israel, it is forever a sign" (Exodus 31, 17).
