Honey[Time and Date each Year]
A Christian acknowledgment and approach to an important biblical event not meant to be disregarded. Appointed by God to be a day of remembrance thus also called Yom ha Zikaron - The Day of Remembrance. Rosh Hashanah - The Feast of Trumpets - Yom Teruah. The Holiest Day of the year.
This Day is also known as the Day of Judgement. This Feast unlike the summer feasts is one that has not yet been fulfilled. The Day of Judgement will happen in God's timing just as his appointed feasts. For further reading please go to Hebrew4Christians.com
The day is believed to be the anniversary of the creation of Adam and Eve, the first man and woman, and their first actions toward the realization of mankind’s role in God’s world. Rosh Hashanah customs include sounding the shofar and eating symbolic foods such as apples dipped in honey. The common greeting on Rosh Hashanah is "Shanah Tovah", which, in Hebrew, means "(Have) a good year".http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosh_Hashanah
