  2. Summary

  3. Their Food • Food for thought • Traditional Jewish foods accompany Rosh Hashanah. Typically, a blessing will be said over two loaves of bread, known as challah. The round shape symbolizes a crown, a reminder of the kingship of God. challah also stands for the circle of life, and the hope that our lives endure without end. • Challah is sometimes baked with a ladder on top in recognition that only God decides who climbs up or down the ladder of life. • Apples dipped in honey are another Rosh Hashanah tradition. It symbolizes the hope for a "sweet year" ahead. Honey is spread on challah. Tzimmes, a mixture made from carrots, cinnamon, yams, prunes, and honey, is also traditional.

  4. A Rams Horn[A JEWISH THRUMPET] Jews used the ram's horn as a trumpet in Biblical times to announce the new moon, holidays, and war. Today, a variety of horns are used, including curved antelope horns.
