About Rosh Hashanah
Rosh Hashanah is the Jewish New Year, falling on the first day of Tishrei in the Hebrew calendar, typically September or early October in Gregorian terms. It opens the High Holy Days, a period of reflection and repentance that culminates in Yom Kippur ten days later. Customs include hearing the shofar, eating apples dipped in honey for a sweet year, and festive meals. Because the Hebrew calendar is lunisolar, the Gregorian date shifts within an autumn window each year. This countdown computes the date with the Hebrew calendar engine shipped on the site.
Date rule: First day of Tishrei in the Hebrew calendar.
