Jews Celebrate the New Year as Rosh Hashanah Begins at Sundown Sunday

At sundown tonight, Jews around the city and world will begin celebrating Rosh Hashanah.

It’s the start of the Jewish New Year, which is marked by the blowing of the ceremonial shofar, a ram's horn.

The holiday kicks off a 10-day period of reflection, ending with Yom Kippur.

According to the Jewish calendar, we are entering the year 5777.
