A HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL




SHABBAT NITZAVIM / VAYELECH
25th Ellul 5770 - 4th September 2010



Rosh Hashanah Foods.

On Rosh Hashanah we have the custom to eat foods with special connections. Here are some of them, with suggestions as to why we eat them.

  • A sweet red apple with honey for a sweet year.
  • Carrots because their Yiddish name means more, and we want our good deeds to be more.
  • Pomegranites because they are full of seeds, and we want to be full of good deeds. Also, people say they have 613 seeds, the same number as the Mitzvot in the Torah which we hope to keep.
  • Some people put a sheep or fish head on the table, with the prayer that we should be the head and not the tail.

Shabbat Club

WEEK ONE

This week's question:
How many notes do we blow on the Shofar each day of Rosh Hashanah?

If you think you know the answer, e-mail it to kids@ilfordsynagogue.co.uk before Tuesday 7th September.
Please do not use the Website over Shabbat or Yom Tov.
We'll collect the names of those who give the right answers over the 4 weeks and then draw the winner. However, we can only give a prize if at least five different families send in the correct answer over the 4 weeks.

You can send in an answer each week if you want to. Don't forget to include your name and phone number. The prize will be a book to be chosen from a selection held by the Shul Office.

Last week's answer:
The first fruits were brought in baskets.

Please keep trying!
