Holidays Celebrated by Y'shua (Jesus)
Rosh Hashanah : Jewish New Year Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, In the seventh month, in the first day of the month, shall you have a sabbath, a memorial of blowing of trumpets, a holy convocation. ~Leviticus 23:24
Rosh Hashana is the Jewish New Year. (Rosh = Head, Hashana = Year) It is the beginning of the Days of Awe and is a time of reflection and repentance. It is the traditional celebration for the creation of the world. It is also called Yom Ha-Zikkaron, Day of Remembrance.
In Leviticus 23:24-25, God calls the holiday, Yom Teruah, The Day of the Blowing of the Shofar or The Feast of Trumpets. A shofar is a trumpet made from an animal's horn, preferably from a ram. It is used as an alarm to warn or to get attention. Yom Teruah is a call to prepare for His Day of Atonement. A popular Jewish tradition is to eat apples dipped in honey in hopes for a sweet year. Another tradition is the Tashlich, based upon Micah 7:19. Those who practice this tradition take bread crumbs to a river and cast them into the water, as God says, He will "cast all their sins into the depths of the sea."

His redemption is drawing near:

In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound,
and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
~I Corinthians 15:52
