Description
- Here is a special message shared by Prime Minister Trudeau for the Jewish New Year, Rosh Hashanah
- May it be Your will, Lord our God and God of our ancestors, that you renew for us a good and sweet year
- Rosh Hashanah isn’t just about being new, it’s about a change.
- “The holiness of Rosh Hashanah becomes one with the holiness of Shabbos, giving this Rosh Hashanah a new dimension and content, which — in view of Rosh Hashanah being the “head” of the year, as mentioned above — must influence the daily life throughout the year…”
- “Man possesses a body and а soul. And just as there is material poverty (in food, clothing and shelter), so there is spiritual poverty, where the deficiency is in spiritual things…”
- Rosh Hashanah is the beginning of the New Year in the Jewish faith. Far and wide, the trumpet of the shofar signals both a time of reflection and repentance.
- I pray that the High Holy Days are filled with God’s peace, love, and mercy. We wish a blessed and happy New Year to all those observing Rosh Hashanah.
- Wishing your Jewish friends happy new year is as easy as saying L’Shana Tova, which means “For a good year”
- If you want to express the same sentiment but more elaborately, this phrase means “A good and sweet year.”
- On Rosh Hashanah it is written… On Yom Kippur it is sealed. May it be written and may it be sealed that you have a new year that brings fulfillment and happiness, peace and prosperity – all of life’s very best things. Have a Happy, Healthy New Year!
