High Holy Days
The High Holy Days are a ten-day period in the Jewish calendar beginning with Rosh Hashanah (the Jewish New Year) and concluding with Yom Kippur (the Day of Atonement). These days are dedicated to introspection, repentance, prayer, and renewal. They provide a time for individuals to reflect on their actions, seek forgiveness, and strive for moral improvement in preparation for the year ahead. Many observe these days through special prayers, synagogue services, and personal reflection, emphasizing community, humility, and spiritual renewal.
