Rosh Hashana is judgement time

The biblical observed Rosh Hashanah is Oct. 1st/Oct. 2nd. Its dependendt on when the new moon (chodesh-first sliver) of the new moon is seen.

The rabbinical calculated is Monday/Tuesday.

Ramadan ends at sunset Tuesday night.

mopar is this what you're talking about?


The Karaite sect of the Jews are very strict observers of when Yom Teruah (Rosh Hashanah) begins. The believe it will be a little later than the date that we have been given, AND, their watch can not involve high-tech equipment . . . the sliver of the new moon has to be verified clearly by two people spotting it from Jerusalem.

I am not sure what the relevance is here but the new moon will be seen (with high tech equipment) at 11:12 AM Monday, Jerusalem time. But the 100 blasts on the shofar are at Sundown, Jerusalem time on Monday???

It has to been seen without optical aid. (they didn't have help in biblical times) The day starts at sunset, so that is when the shofar sounds if the new moon is seen.

OK.. so, when is the "last trump" of the feast? is it a matter of some minutes after the 1st is blown, or on the 2nd day?

where do we find the biblical oct 1st-2nd? my calendar sez sept 29th start.

I'm not sure what you are asking here. But, the festival day ends at sunset the next day. Some die hard Jews keep it 2 days just to be sure they are doing it right but they don't keep Atonement (fasting for 24 hours) for 2 days just to make sure they are keeping it on the right day. LOL

I believe something special will occur at Rosh Hashana 29/30 September 2008. Something like a download of consciousness. We will suddenly remember who we are and what we are. It's like waking up from a dream. We switch from beliefs to knowledge. As soon as the new moon is sighted and the trumpet is blown, which is the day and hour nobody knows of, the walls around us will fall and we will be in contact with the all-knowing source of life. The truth about everything will become available knowledge and we are set free.

i'm asking because i read a site that states they blow the 1st trump, then continue that for around 15 minutes, when the last trump is blown. in other words, it's over in about 1/2 hour or less...

Why two days of Rosh Hashanah?
Here's the answer:

Before our current exile, we did not have a fixed calendar as we do today. Rather, the Supreme Torah court in Jerusalem determined our calendar on a month to month basis. They did this on the first day of every month, based on witnesses testifying that they had seen the new moon. Therefore, the people outside Israel had insufficient time to find out the exact date in time for the festivals. The "two-day festival" arose to correct this situation. In Israel, however, the people lived close enough to Jerusalem to find out the exact date of all the festivals except Rosh Hashanah. Since Rosh Hashanah occurs on the first day of the month, even those living in Jerusalem sometimes needed to observe it for two days, if the witnesses failed to arrive.

The Supreme Torah court is the Sanhedrin which is run by a bunch rabbinical Jews that put the Talmud above the Torah. They think God should listen to them on how to interpret the scriptures.
