Setting the Shabbat table before and after Shabbat

Hi,

“A person ought to set the table before Shabbat even if he will only eat a minimal amount, and a person ought to set the table after Shabbat even if he will only eat a minimal amount, to honor the Shabbat at its entry and its exit.

“One should prepare his house while it is still day before Shabbat, to honor Shabbat. The light should be lit, the table should be set for the meal, and the bed should be arranged; all of this is part of honoring Shabbat.”

(Rambam, Mishneh Torah, Laws of Shabbat 30:4)

Have a great day,
Mordechai
