L'shanah Tovah Happy Rosh Hashanah

Happy Rosh Hashanah to all of NYCP’s readers!

Rosh Hashanah, meaning “Head of the Year”, marks the beginning of the Hebrew calendar. For the Jewish community, the fall season is a cleansing – a way to wash ourselves of the sins of the past year and begin with a clean slate. Rosh Hashanah rings in the new year, while Yom Kippur, which comes afterwards, has us atone for all of our past wrongdoings.

As a Jew, I’d like to take this opportunity to apologize for any mistakes I’ve made this past year. Going forward, I pledge to be a fairer, more accurate and more comprehensive reporter.

Our newspaper will be taking a brief hiatus for the holiday. We will return to our regular schedule on Wednesday, Oct. 2.
