Rosh Hashanah "Feast of Trumpets"
from September 11, 2026 7:30 pm . September 13, 2026 7:30 pm
The Feast of Trumpets marks the first day of the Hebrew month of Tishrei. It initiates the Ten Days of Awe (Days of Repentance), a solemn period of personal reflection and preparation that concludes with Yom Kippur (the Day of Atonement), which begins at sundown on September 20, 2026.
Core observances and customs for the holiday include:
- Blowing the Shofar: The central command of Yom Teruah is hearing the sounding of the ram's horn (shofar) as a wake-up call for repentance. Because the first day falls on Shabbat (Saturday) in 2026, traditional community blowing is only observed on Sunday morning.
- Symbolic Foods: Families gather for festive meals featuring apples dipped in honey and round challah bread with raisins, symbolizing a sweet and well-rounded new year.
- Prophetic Meaning: In many Christian and Messianic communities, the Feast of Trumpets carries strong prophetic significance, representing the future gathering or resurrection of believers (the Rapture) heralded by the "last trumpet".
