About the Jewish Month of Elul
Culture & Art
Ends: Sep 24, 2022
DESCRIPTION:
Elul is a month in the Hebrew calendar consisting of 29 days, the twelfth month of the year, and falls in August and September.
Translated from Hebrew as “harvest,” Elul is a time of reflection in preparation for the high holy days between and including Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. Additionally, Elul is a time to honor and visit the graves of the departed.
Throughout the month, the morning begins with a call from the shofar (Ram’s horn), which symbolizes the awakening of the spirit and commencement of soul searching in preparation for Rosh Hashanah. Recitations of Psalm 27 and the Selichot (penitential prayer) round out the morning ritual on specific days.
PLEASE NOTE:
All Hebrew calendar months begin and end at sundown. LEEP Calendar marks Hebrew calendar months starting on their first full day. Observant people of the faith will observe the beginning of the month at sunset the day prior.
