Upcoming Jewish Holidays: September 2021
This month, Jewish people throughout the world will be observing what is known as the High Holy Days or High Holidays. Most Jewish families will celebrate these holidays, which are often thought of as the holiest days of the year.
Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, begins Monday evening, September 6. Some Jews celebrate for one day (through Tuesday night September 7) and some celebrate two days (through Wednesday night September 8). Most Jews celebrate with large family meals and services. During the pandemic synagogues services have been a combination of in-person outside, inside with social distancing, or virtual. Feel free to greet your Jewish friends and colleagues with “Happy New Year,” or try Hebrew with “Shana Tova.”
Yom Kippur, a more somber holiday, begins on Wednesday night, September 15, through Thursday night September 16. It includes fasting and prayer. Many people of the Jewish faith will refrain from eating for the full 25 hours of the holiday. Feel free to greet your Jewish friends and colleagues with, “Have a meaningful and easy fast.”
