ROSH HASHANAH 2013: Rosh Hashanah - the Jewish New Year also known as the Feast of Trumpets begins at sunset Wednesday, September 4 and ends at sunset on Friday, September 6. The first of the Biblical autumn festivals, Rosh Hashanah celebrates the birth of the world and humanity. Symbolic foods such as apples and honey are central to the holiday, symbolizing the sweetness, health, success and good deeds which we hope the coming year will bring. In the midst of the troubles in the Middle East and around the world, pause and give thanks to G-d for His sovereign goodness to this year, looking ahead to His blessings to come.
