The Jewish High Holidays, also known as the Yamim Noraim, occur in the autumn and are considered the most important holidays in the Jewish calendar. These holidays symbolize atonement, repentance, and renewal while commemorating significant historical events. In 2025, the Jewish High Holidays will begin on the evening of September 13th and end on the evening of September 15th.
The High Holidays are a time for reflection and introspection and are marked by special prayers, rituals, and customs. The central themes of the High Holidays are repentance and forgiveness, and Jews traditionally spend much time during this period praying and asking for forgiveness for their sins. The High Holidays also commemorate the creation of the world and the giving of the Torah to Moses on Mount Sinai.
