JEWISH HIGH HOLIDAYS & KEY CELEBRATION - NEW YEAR 5786

High Holidays of Jewish Celebrations 2025: Prepare for the season of biblical Jewish holidays, which runs from September 23 to October 15, 2025. This period includes Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur, and Sukkot, marking a time of reflection, judgment, and celebration in the Jewish community. Introduction

The high season of Jewish celebrations in 2025 is just around the corner, beginning on Tuesday, September 23 and extending through October 15. During these 22 days, Jews around the world prepare to commemorate a series of significant holidays, including Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, and Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement. This period is not only a time of celebration but also of introspection and judgment, where forgiveness and redemption are sought. As we approach these dates, it is essential to understand the significance of each celebration and how they are intertwined with the rich Jewish tradition.

It is time to prepare for the peak season of biblical-Jewish New Year celebrations, which last approximately 22 days in total. They begin on Tuesday, September 23rd, the eve of Tishrei 1st, on the evening of September 22nd, which marks the beginning of the two-day New Year festivities, better known as Rosh Hashanah, also known as the birthday of Adam, the first man, and Yom Ha'Din [the annual day of judgment for human beings;

WHAT HAPPENS IF WE ARE CONVICTED WITH BAD DECREES FROM ABOVE?

Since it is also the annual day of judgment for all humanity, there is a pause from the supplications of Selichot for two days. Viduy [Confession of sins] is not said during humanity's annual judgment.

While we are judged in heaven, we remain silent on Earth. Then we perform Selichot for a few more days to try to change the bad decrees into good ones, to merit Forgiveness on Yom Kippur [the day of the year established by the Eternal God for the atonement of sins when He wills].

This year, the day of atonement (Yom Kippur), on which, God willing, He erases our faults, errors, and rebellions (sins), falls from the evening of October 1st to the evening of October 2nd (about 25 hours of fasting), or the 10th day of the Hebrew month of Tishrei.

Are they like 22 Days of Holidays?

Well, no, not quite, it's not actually 22 days of non-stop celebrations; there are breaks in between; right after Rosh Ha'Shana, there is a minor fast, then some 7 days of preparation, and then the celebrations continue with the Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur), followed by another 4  days of breaks.

And that our names are written in the book of life, for a year full of success, health, peace, and love!

Then all celebrations resume and end on October 15 with the end of the Sukkot festival (the Feast of Tabernacles this year runs from October 7 to October 15, 2025), with the celebrations of Shemini Atzeret and Simchat Torah.
