JEWISH NEW YEAR
BEGINS ON SEPT. 16

The Jewish religious year opens
this season on September 18th. The
day is called Rosh ha Shana and is
observed not as a civil but as re-
ligious festival. Modern Jews use the
civil calendar for all ordinary pur-
poses but date their feasts and fasts
according to the moon. Orthodox OBJ
servers still observe two days for the
New Year to make a distinction be-
tween the inhabitants Of Palestine and
all others, but Reform Jews have re-
turned to the older method Of a single
day. The. day begins at sunset. a
mode of reckoning that is supported,
additionally. by the Biblical story of
creation. in which the evening is men,
toned before the morning. The year
is 5sT8. counting from the traditional
time of the creation of the world.
The Bible enjoins the celebration of
the New Year in the book of Leviticus.
chapter %. and Numbers, chapter 20.
The chief rite mentioned is the blow
ing of the trumpet or rams horn. still
observed in the synagog. The cere-
monial Of the day is very impressive;
it includes prayers of ancient and
medieval origin. an elaborate music.
and the reading Of the account Of
Abraham's sacrifice Of Isaac. The
greeting Of the season is Leshana tova
tikoseyu, May you be inscribed in the
book of life for good year"
The lesson Of the New Year is that
men review the past year and look
with confidence toward the future.
