Rabbi's MessageON ROSH HASHANAH, the shofar is intended
to awaken us to focus on what is really important in
life. During the rest of the year we often get caught up
in the details of daily living and are distracted from
concentrating on what is truly significant in our lives.
This past year, many have already begun that process
due the Covid health crisis that has taken over the
world. The frailty of human existence echoed in
the Unesana Tokef prayer has been brought home
too starkly, as we all know individuals who have
been struck with this illness, and some who have
succumbed.
We have developed a heightened sense of obligation
to behave in a responsible and safe manner while
maintaining a close connection with family, friends
and community members. Having to distance
ourselves from each other to one degree or another
has given us a deeper appreciation of how important
connecting to each other means to us. We often take
things for granted until they are taken from us.
Through the Yomim Noraim we ask Hashem to
remember us for "chayim," for life, and to write us in
the book of "chayim," of life.
The Hebrew word "chaim" technically is a plural form
of the word "chay" which means life in the singular.
Why, when we pray as individuals, do we pray for
life in the plural? Perhaps because living life without
being able to share it with others is not really living at
all. We all feel that sentiment so profoundly this year.
May we be blessed this year not only with life, but
with "Chayim" the privilege of being able to share life
with each other in a full and meaningful way.

H I G H H O L I D AY G U I D E / 5
* Registration RequiredDuring the evening meals of Rosh Hashana there are several customs. Choose from your tradition.
CUSTOMS FOR ROSH HASHANA – EVENING MEALS
DATES: A blessing of “Boray Pree Ha’etz” is recited (having in mind all the tree fruit that you intend to eat during the meal) after which dates are eaten then say:מו שונאינו. ית פניך, ה׳ אלקינו ואלקי אבותנו,( ש יהי רצון )מל
Yehee ratzon sheyitamu sonaynu v’oyvenu.“May it be Thy will that our adversaries be eradicated.”
This is a phonemic symbol. The Hebrew word temarim dates sounds similar to the yitamo (to eradicate).
POMEGRANATES: One then eats the pomegranates and before eating recites:רמון. יות כ ה זכ נרב פניך, ה׳ אלקינו ואלקי אבותנו,( ש יהי רצון )מל
Yehee ratzon shenarbeh zchuyos k’rimon.“May it be Thy will that we have a multitude of merits like (the seeds of ) the pomegranate.”
APPLE IN HONEY: An apple is dipped into the honey and before eating the following is recited:נה טובה ומתוקה. חדש עלינו ש פניך, ה׳ אלקינו ואלקי אבותנו‚( שת יהי רצון )מל
Yehee ratzon shetchadesh olaynu shana tova umesuka.“May it be Thy will to usher in upon us a good and sweet year.”
FISH: Before eating fish the following is recited:דגים. ה כ נפרה ונרב פניך, ה׳ אלקינו ואלקי אבותנו,( ש יהי רצון )מל
Yehee ratzon shenifreh v’nirbeh k’dogim.“May it be Thy will that we be fruitful and multiply like fish.”
FISH HEAD: Before tasting the fish head the following is recited:נהיה לראש ולא לזנב. פניך, ה׳ אלקינו ואלקי אבותנו,( ש יהי רצון )מל
Yehee ratzon shehneeyeh l’rosh vlo I’zonov.“May it be Thy will that we be likened to the head. not to the tail.”
CARROTS: Before eating carrot tzimmes the following is recited:
יותנו. ירבו זכ פניך, ה׳ אלקינו ואלקי אבותנו,( ש יהי רצון )מלYehee ratzon sheyirbu zechuyosenu.
“May it be Your will that our merits increase. “The Yiddish word for carrots ‘mehren’ is similar to the Yiddish word mehr which means more.
NEW FRUIT: On the second evening of Rosh Hashana it is customary to eat a new fruit—one which had not been eaten since last Rosh Hashana. Since there is some question as to whether or not the blessing of Shehecheyanu should be said at kiddush on the second night of Rosh Hashana … when the Shecheyanu
is recited one should also have in mind the new fruit. Even if one does not have a new fruit, Shehecheyanu is recited in the kiddush. The new fruit is eaten after the Hamotzie and eating of the Challah.
NUTS: There is a custom to refrain from eating nuts on Rosh Hashana. The Hebrew word for nut is ‘egoz’ which has the same numerical value as the Hebrew word ‘chet’ which means sins.

The bracha of שהחיינו is recited at the end of kiddush keeping in mind the new fruit that will be eaten later in the meal.
• The custom to eat a new fruit stems from the fact that there is a rabbinic controversy as to whether or not should be said on the second night of Rosh שהחיינוHashanah.

ROSH HASHANAH RITUAL GUIDE

Erev Yom Kippur
SHACHARIT• A short Selichot is recited on Erev Yom Kippur before Shacharit
(minyan required for 13 midot section only).
• There is no Mizmor L’Sodah, Avinu Malkenu, Tachanun or
Lamnatzeach
MIKVAH• There is a minhag for men to immerse in Mikvah on Erev Yom
Kippur. Standing under the shower continuously for 10
minutes is a secondary alternative (for this minhag only),
which is a particularly appropriate option this year due to
social distancing safety recommendations.
MINCHA• Ashamnu and Al Chet are recited at the end of the silent Amidah.
Can be recited without a minyan.
BLESSING THE CHILDREN• There is a beautiful minhag to bless one’s children on Erev Yom
Kippur. See page 10 of this guide.
KAPAROT• Some families have this minhag. See page 11 of this guide.
MECHILA• It is appropriate to ask forgiveness on Erev Yom Kippur from
anyone that you may have slighted during the year. There is a
custom to recite the Tefillah Zaka that is found at the beginning of
many Yom Kippur Machzorim to express forgiveness to others.
YAHRTZEIT CANDLES• There is a minhag to light yahrzeit candles in memory of loved
ones before Yom Kippur. Some also light a candle that lasts
longer than 24 hours to be available to light the Havdalah
candle from after Yom Kippur. See Havdalah below.
YOM KIPPUR CANDLE LIGHTING BEFORE 6:13PM• .להדליק נר של יום הכפורים and ”שהחיינו“
• If not accepting Yom Kippur at Candle Lighting, “שהחיינו”
should not be said at that time, rather it should be said later
before Maariv.
KOL NIDRE• Kol Nidre can be recited before Yom Kippur begins. However,
reciting Shehechiyanu and Maariv brings on Yom Kippur even if
recited earlier than sunset
Yom Kippur
YOM KIPPUR RESTRICTIONS• All activities that are forbidden on Shabbos are forbidden on Yom
Kippur as well, including, carrying outside an Eruv. Health
permitting, we must abstain from the following: all eating and drinking, any washing (even to dip a finger in cold water for pleasure is prohibited), the application of oils and creams to the body, wearing leather footwear and marital relations. Hands that are soiled may be washed in cold water. Also, Covid related washing and disinfecting is permissible as well.
• Upon waking up in the morning, one should wash each hand, alternately, up to the end of the knuckles, three times. Washing the face is not permitted. However, while one’s hands are still somewhat moist, one may wipe them over his eyes. We make the Bracha over the washing of hands as well as the other usual morning Brachot.
KITEL• There is a custom for men to wear a Kittel on Yom Kippur
during davening.
YOM KIPPUR TEFILLOT• The 13 middot require a minyan for recitation. An individual may
recite these verses only if read with the Torah trope.
• Vidui including Ashamnu and Al Cheit may be recited without a minyan and are among the most important tefillot of the day
• Avinu Malkenu may be recited without a minyan as well.
• In the Shema, ברוך שם כבוד מלכותו לעולם ועד is said out loud on Yom Kippur.
YIZKOR• Yizkor may be recited without a minyan.
MUSAF• Individuals davening without a minyan should recite Musaf only
after the third halachic hour of the day which is at 9:40am.
NEILAH• Neilah should not begin until after Plag Hamincha which is at
5:17 pm but should begin before sunset which is at 6:30 pm. Neilah may be concluded before sunset but the observance of Yom Kippur will still not be over until 7:14 pm
• Shofar: One who is davening at home is not required to hear the Shofar to conclude Yom Kippur.
MAARIV• Maariv should include Ata Chanantanu.
HAVDALAH (AFTER 7:14PM)• Havdalah begins with Borei Pri Hagafen. There is no Borei Minei
Besamim.
• Borei Morei Haesh should be done with a fire that is lit from a candle that was burning on Yom Kippur or on an incandescent bulb that was lit over Yom Kippur.
KIDDUSH LEVANA• If one has not yet recited Kiddush Levana, Motzei Yom Kippur is
a propitious time to do so.
YOM KIPPUR RITUAL GUIDE

Throughout the Scriptures we find that our Patriarchs often rendered blessings upon their children (ie. the last chapters of Genesis primarily deal with Jacob’s blessing of his twelve children). It is, therefore, not surprising that blessing one’s children has found a special place in Jewish custom and tradition. On Erev Yom Kippur, the day before every individual’s fate is sealed for the following year, it has become a tradition that parents bless their children before leaving for Kol Nidre. In order to assist you in carrying out this beautiful custom, we have provided the traditional text for such blessings. Often, the parent’s hand is placed on the child’s head as the blessing is said over each child.
MAY IT BE the will of our Father in heaven, that He instill in your heart His love and reverence. May the fear of HASHEM be upon your face all your days, in order that you not sin. May your craving be for the Torah and the commandments. May your eyes gaze toward truth; may your mouth speak wisdom; may your heart meditate with awe; may your hands engage in the commandments; may your feet run to do the will of your Father in heaven. May He grant you righteous sons and daughters who engage in the Torah and the commandments all their days. May the source of your posterity be blessed. May He arrange your livelihood for you in a permissible way, with contentment and with relief, from beneath His generous hand, and not through the gifts of flesh and blood; a livelihood that will free you to serve HASHEM. And may you be inscribed and sealed for a good, long life, among all the righteous of Israel. Amen.

Children of man who sit in the darkness and the shadow of death, bound in misery and in iron chains.1 He will bring them out of darkness and the shadow of death, and will break their bonds asunder. Foolish ones, terribly afflicted because of their sinful ways and their wrongdoings; their soul despises all manner of food, and they draw near to the gates of death. They cry out to HASH-EM in their trouble; He saves them from their distresses. He delivers them from their graves. Let them thank HASHEM for His mercy, and [proclaim] His wonders to the children of man.If there be for him an angel, an intercessor, one among a thousand, to vouch for a man's upright-ness on his behalf, then He will be gracious to him and say: Redeem him from going down to the grave; I have found expiation [for him].

Repeat the ritual again, starting from the first paragraph Children of man. Reciting the entire order twice more, for a total of three (3) recitations. Finally, placing the money in the tzedakah box.
There are many families that have the practice on Erev Yom Kippur to perform the ritual of Kapparot by designating some money for tzedakah and waving that money around one's head during the recitation of the phrases indicated below.
During our tefillot for the High Holidays we say that Teshuvah, Tefillah and Tzedaka removes the evil decree which undoubtedly is the source for this custom. For those who have this custom in their families, we pro-vide the text below as a convenience.

Succah Building Reminders1. When constructing a succah, the sechach covering should not be placed on the succah until the walls of the succah are set up and firmly secured.
2. Before one builds a succah one should examine the area above the intended location of the succah to determine if anything (i.e. tree branches) will be hanging over the top of the succah. If such is the case, consult with Rabbi Segal as to how this might affect the validity of the succah.
3. If the walls of your succah are made out of canvas or cloth, be sure to tie down such material tightly against the frame.
4. Succah decorations that are hung beneath the sechach of the succah should preferably be placed within one foot of the
sechach. If this cannot be done, consult with Rabbi Segal as to parameters involved in maintaining a valid succah.
5. Enough sechach should be placed on the top of the succah to cover the majority of the roof area and should provide shade for the majority of the floor of the succah.
If you have any questions regarding the building of a succah, do not hesitate to contact Rabbi Segal.
Shabbat and Yom Tov Candles in the SuccahWhile there is a practice to light Shabbat and Yom Tov candles in the Succah, it is perfectly acceptable to light those candles in our home in a living space that will be use by people at any time while the candles are burning.
On Succot we are commanded to “take the four species”—An etrog (citron), hadasim (myrtle twigs), the lulav (palm branch) and aravot (willow).
We arrange the lulav as follows:
1. Arrange the thick middle stem (spine) of the lulav so that it faces the individual.
2. Place three hadasim in the holder on the right side of the lulav.
3. Place two aravot in the holder on the left side of the lulav.
4. The hadasim should be higher than the aravot.
The lulav should be held in the right hand with the middle stemfacing the individual. The etrog should be held in the left hand. While blessing/s are being recited, the etrog is held against the lulav with the pittum pointing downwards.
Immediately upon the completion of the blessing/s the etrog is to be turned so the pittun is pointing upwards and held firm against the aravot or aravot holder on the lulav. Care should be taken that the etrog should not be held against a low point of the aravot holder where the aravot might not reach.
The lulav and etrog, held together, should then be shaken in all directions, front, side, other side, up and down. This symbolizes G-d’s presence in all directions. Two blessings are recited on the first day of Succot and one blessing on the renaming seven days of Succot. The blessings can be found in the Siddur.
Reminder: We do not take the Lulav and Etrog on Shabbat the first day of Succot.
SUCCOT
“And ye shall take.... the fruit of goodly trees, branches of palm trees and boughs of thick trees, and willow of the brook and ye shall re-joice before the Lord your G-d seven days” (Lev. 23:40).
