ABOUT ROSH HASHANAH and
the HIGH HOLIDAYS
Rosh Hashanah, literally "head of the year", is the
Jewish New Year and one of the Jewish people's holiest of
days. Rosh Hashanah, which occurs on the first and second
days of the Hebrew month of Tishrei (September – October),
also celebrates the world's creation.
The Jewish New Year celebration has little in common with
the secular celebration of New Years Day in January. The
traditions and rituals of Rosh Hashanah are not associated
with partying and fireworks. It is actually a day for contemplation, reflection, and
self-evaluation. They reinforce the notion of our
responsibility for our life, our conduct and our actions.
Following Rosh Hashanah, Jews also celebrate the holidays of
Yom Kippur, Sukkot, and Simchat Torah! |
