Rosh Hashanah (Hebrew: ืจึนืืฉื ื”ึทืฉึธึผืื ึธื”), literally meaning the "head [of] the year", is the Jewish New Year. The biblical name for this holiday is Yom Teruah (ื™ื•ึนื ืชึฐึผืจื•ึผืขึธื”), literally "day of shouting or blasting". It is the first of the Jewish High Holy Days (ื™ึธืžึดื™ื ื ื•ึนืจึธืึดื™ื Yamim Nora'im. "Days of Awe") specified by Leviticus 23:23โ€“32 that occur in the early autumn of the Northern Hemisphere.

Rosh Hashanah is a two-day celebration that begins on the first day of Tishrei, which is the seventh month of the ecclesiastical year. It marks the beginning of the civil year, according to the teachings of Judaism, while the first month Nisan, the passover month, is the traditional anniversary of the creation of Adam and Eve, the first man and woman according to the Hebrew Bible, and the inauguration of humanity's role in God's world.

According to one secular opinion, the holiday owes its timing to the beginning of the economic year in Southwest Asia and Northeast Africa, marking the start of the agricultural cycle. via Wikipedia: Rosh Hashanah
