Rosh Hashanah

“President Trump announced this evening that Iran is trying to arm itself again with nuclear weapons. That is true,” Netanyahu said.

Wherever we live, in Israel or America, however we vote, however we pray, we are one people. We can disagree, and we will, but we will still be able to wish each other a Shana tova.

This year, as Rosh Hashanah coincides with 9/11, it offers us a rare opportunity to grapple not just with new starts, but also with trauma and resilience.

For Jewish communities abroad, camp is often the defining Jewish experience of the year: an immersive world where Jewish identity, Zionism, friendship, and leadership are lived rather than taught.

Katz also wished Iranian Jews a happy new year, telling them that they were part of "a glorious Jewish history," and saying they would "always be in our hearts."

Days before Rosh Hashanah, a honey jar production line in Ukraine’s battered Kyiv region continues operating inside a heavily shelled industrial zone, despite nearby damage.

The government's annual report ahead of Rosh Hashanah revealed that Israel ranks among the world's leaders in AI implementation, development, and research.

A convergence of trends and events – some global, some local – threatens to turn the Jewish New Year into a “perfect storm” for Israel, from elections and war to diplomacy and climate change.

The days of the month of Elul are in full swing, and the blast of the shofar echoing through the walls reminds us that Rosh Hashanah and the holidays of Tishrei are just around the corner.

Rosh Hashanah is certainly one of those times when we are overwhelmed by the richness of Jewish symbolism. At the heart of our new year observances lies the piercing cry of the shofar.
