Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, is regarded as the anniversary of the day that God created the world. The celebration begins with a blast of the shofar (ram's horn) to announce that the God who created
the world is still the One ruling it. The blowing of the horn also begins a
10-day period of self-examination and repentance leading to Yom Kippur,
the Day of Atonement (Leviticus 23:23-32; Numbers 29:1-6).
