Rosh Hashanah, the “Jewish New Year” is the first of the High Holidays or Yamim Noraim (“Days of Awe”), or Asseret Yemei Teshuva (The Ten Days of Repentance) which are days specifically set aside to focus on repentance that conclude with the holiday of Yom Kippur. Rosh Hashanah is the start of the civil year in the Hebrew calendar, the new year for people, animals, and legal contracts and commemorates the creation of man whereas five days earlier, on 25 of Elul, marks the first day of creation.
