The Jewish New Year. Also viewed as the Day of Judgment, Rosh Hashanah gives Jewish people the opportunity to seek forgiveness and cast off their sins, so that God might give them a good signing in the Book of Life for the coming year. Traditional greetings for this holiday are “Shana Tova” (Good Year), and “Gmar Chatima Tova” (Good Final Signing).
