The Jewish High Holy days, or “ten days of awe,” began on Sunday night with the Eve of Rosh Hashanah. Observance of Jewish holidays begins at sundown on the eve of the holiday.
Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, celebrated by Jews worldwide, began Sunday night at sunset.
In many synagogues, there will be a blowing of a ram’s horn, or shofar, on Rosh Hashanah to signal the new year. There are special foods to mark the High Holy Days, such as challah, a traditional Rosh Hashanah bread that is braided to symbolize the eternal cycle of life. Challah is traditionally dipped in honey, symbolizing the hopes for a sweet New Year. An apple dipped in honey is another traditional Rosh Hashanah food. Pomegranates are eaten, and their many seeds symbolize the many good deeds that are expected. People are encouraged to examine the past year, think of errors in judgment and repent.
