A gabbai is a beadle or sexton, a person who assists in the running of synagogue services in some way. The role may be undertaken on a voluntary or paid basis. A shamash (literally 'servant') can also mean an assistant to a rabbi. The word gabbai is Aramaic and, in Talmudic times, meant collector of taxes or charity, or treasurer.
