This Friday night (9.18.2020) is the beginning of the new year for Jewish people – it will be 5781. We call it Rosh Hashanah, which translates literally as “head of the year”, and there is usually a lot of associated imagery of apples and honey (for a “sweet” new year), pomegranates because they’re seasonal and delicious, and the shofar, which is a ram’s (or ibex, or honestly any kosher animal that isn’t a cow) horn that we blow to make a cool noise. This is also the beginning of several weeks of different holidays for us.

Shana tova (happy new year) to our Jewish followers!

Today is Erev Rosh Hashanah. Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, begins at sundown tonight! Shabbat also begins at sundown.

September 10, 2018 - 1 Tishrei, 5779

Today is Rosh Hashanah, the first day of the Jewish year, and the anniversary of creation.

Observances of the holiday include the sounding of the shofar, a ram’s horn, baking the challah into a circular loaf to signify the cyclical nature of the year.

Greetings for the holiday include  “L’shanah tovah”—“To a good year,” and “G’mar chatimah tovah”—”May you be inscribed in the Book of Life”

Rosh Hashanah begins the High Holidays, which culminates in Yom Kippur, the day of atonement.

L’shanah tovah!
