Dinner Jewish Jews Orthodox Tradition Traditions Year
EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming postcard, dating back to the 1910s, captures the traditional Jewish New Year (Rosh Hashanah) greetings and celebrations of the time. The image depicts a beautifully set table, adorned with traditional Jewish symbols and delicacies, ready for the festive dinner. The table is laden with apples dipped in honey, symbolizing a sweet new year, and a round Challah bread, representing the cyclical nature of life. In the foreground, we see a group of Orthodox Jewish men, dressed in their traditional attire, gathered around the table, donning their distinctive hats and long beards. They raise their glasses in a toast, wishing each other a "Shana Tova," meaning "a good year" in Hebrew. The warm and inviting atmosphere of the scene conveys the sense of unity and togetherness that is central to the Jewish New Year celebrations. Rosh Hashanah is the Jewish New Year, marking the beginning of the civil year in the Jewish calendar. It is a time for reflection, repentance, and renewal. Families and communities come together to celebrate this important tradition, which has been passed down through generations. This postcard offers a glimpse into the rich history and cultural heritage of the Jewish people, providing a window into their customs and traditions.
