Rosh
Hashanah occurs on the first and
second days of Tishri. In
Hebrew, Rosh Hashanah means,
literally, "head of the year" or
"first of the year." Rosh
Hashanah is commonly known as
the Jewish New Year. This name
is somewhat deceptive, because
there is little similarity
between Rosh Hashanah, one of
the holiest days of the year,
and the American midnight
drinking bash and daytime
football game. There is,
however, one important
similarity between the Jewish
New Year and the American one:
Many Americans use the New Year
as a time to plan a better life,
making "resolutions." Likewise,
the Jewish New Year is a time to
begin introspection, looking
back at the mistakes of the past
year and planning the changes to
make in the new year. The name
"Rosh Hashanah" is not used in
the Bible to discuss this
holiday. The Bible refers to the
holiday as Yom Ha-Zikkaron (the
day of remembrance and the day
of the sounding of the shofar).
The holiday is instituted in
Leviticus 23:24-25.

Weekly Insight
Years
ago in Queens, a student of my father was in a desperate
financial situation. He hit rock bottom; creditors were
lining up at his door and he could barely feed his
family. He was frantic. My father, with his typical
certainty and calm, told the man not to worry, "this is
a good sign!"...... |
