exist in the world, or have existed, at least fifteen calendar, that is, different ways of dividing the time.
The Gregorian calendar, for example, adopted in many countries including Italy, determines the length of years, months and days according to the cycle of seasons, then the passage of the sun from one equinox and start counting the years From the birth of Jesus, the date of this event as the year zero.
The Islamic calendar is based instead on the motion of the moon: the months and then begin again with the new moon, over a period of 29 or 30 days and moving the beginning of seasons each year about 11 days later. The counting of years is different than the Gregorian calendar and refers all'egira, that Muhammad, who made the flight from Mecca to Medina in what we consider the 622 d. C.
In the State of Israel, next to the Gregorian calendar, is normally also used the Jewish calendar. This is lunisolar, that makes reference to both the sun and the moon alternate years 12 months to more than 13, which lasts 29 or 30 days, so the seasons and the holidays associated with them fall more or less the same period. In this calendar, counting the years is that from the creation of the world, calculated based on the recommendation contained in the Bible, circa 3760 a. C. Considering that the rabbinical tradition believes that the year one begins on October 6 3761 BC and taking into account the oscillation of the seasons, in a few days, exactly on 19 and 20 September, we will enter the year 5770.
Rosh Hashanah, literally the head of the year, contrary to what one might expect with the idea of \u200b\u200bthe most popular New Year is not a secular party and, instead, a strongly religious connotation. According to the sacred texts at the beginning of each new year, God looks at the conduct of each individual and evaluate the behavior, which will then be judged on the day of Yom Kippur. Rosh HaShanah opens, therefore, a period of ten-day-time is approximately the time between the two holidays, in which every jew examine their own behavior and seek forgiveness to the next, and to God for the wrongs committed.
features the holiday of Rosh Hashanah the sounding of the shofar at the end of the reading of the Torah. According Barah, that makes its way through the holidays of Tishrei, the first month of the new year, it is preferable to use a ram's horn in remembrance of the sacrifice of Isaac and properly curved to symbolize the reverence of heart towards God, his sound has the power to "awaken" the Jewish people.
The two days of Rosh Hashanah are considered one long day, dedicated to prayer and reflection, but not without a ritual, though it has a religious root, acquires value for the laity: it is used for example going to a stream, fountain or just a small town, and do tashlih. The tashlih is the act of emptying their pockets and throw the contents into the water if your pockets are for the religious metaphor of the soul and the content symbolizes sin be freed, for secular Jews, explains Barah, is still a good time to get rid of what limits and make resolutions for the upcoming year.
Even the table of the Rosh Hashanah Seder is rich foods and dishes that have a religious significance or is a good omen for the coming year. They are in fact part of the plates that make up the dinner on the first day a piece of meat from the head of a lamb or a fish to symbolize the supremacy in the observations, a hallah (braided bread characteristic of Shabbat) round to remember the circularity of 'year, but the pomegranate because the new year is prosperous or slices of apple dipped in honey because it is sweet.
the end of our chat, Barah wishing us goodbye "vemetukah Hashanah Tovah, a good and sweet year. We on our part, about to celebrate our first Rosh Hashanah, we hope to have the opportunity to know and celebrate here also all other celebrations of the Jewish calendar!

Ester, estic called, was born in Zagreb in 1929 and now lives in Israel, Merhav, a kibbutz in the Galilee in the north of country, but its history is closely tied to Italy. We're going to find it with Luciano and Clare, two Friends of the Cultural Association "The River" by Stienta in the province of Rovigo. Estic welcomes us with a smile that lights up the entire face and even if it is not the first time we see and we often talk on the phone, immediately tells us in his Italian rusty, but absolutely understandable: "I'm here now thanks to Italy. I always tell my children and grandchildren without the Italians there would be no other. I love Italy. "
Since 2004, the Association "The River", by a patient archival work, has reconstructed the story of 116 Jews estic and other foreigners who, between 1941 and 1943 were "free extension" that is detained under the control of the Fascist authorities, in some small municipalities in the Polesine and is then able to retrace the path back to find her and invite her to Israel, after more than 60 years, on the Day of Remembrance Costa di Rovigo.
At the outbreak of the Second World War II, estic resided in Zagreb with his family. His parents ran a small grocery store near the industrial area. Relationships with customers, almost all workers employed in the area were good and often tells us estic, parents gave food on credit to those who were in distress. After the invasion of Yugoslavia by the Germans in 1941, things changed: the eastern part of the Nazis forced the family to flee their homes, but fortunately, some acquaintances, including former workers now enrolled in the ranks of the Ustasha (Croatian ultra-nationalist) helped them return to their homes.
In 1942 his father decided to join the partisans to fight the Nazis. The mother and aunt, feeling safe, decided to stay home with the old and the children. We thought, estic stresses that it is not useful to the Nazis, which racks only men capable of work. However, estic was entrusted to a "good woman", so remember the eastern part called his mother, with prayers to accompany her in Italy, Ido uncle, brother of her mother, interned with his entire family in Costa di Rovigo.
life with his uncles was not easy, but acceptable once a month estic and the family of his uncle went to the Littorina (train) at Rovigo da Costa to bathe in public baths, and still tells estic all Costa liked her and were concerned for her health.
Her mother wrote letters or postcards post in which he wrote confidently, "the Italian people will save my baby."
Postcards stopped May 3, 1943: that day's mom estic was arrested and deported with the last train from Zagreb, a train composed almost exclusively of elderly, women and children. Even the news of the eastern part of the mother arrived at through a postcard.
After September 8, 1943 and the signing of the armistice between Italy and Anglo-Americans, even if the situation worsened. The mayor warned that his uncle after a few days would have to arrest them and hand them over to the Germans and advised them to escape. A few days later, led by an Italian, a loaded cart drawn by a horse's uncles, cousin and the eastern part: the small group moved towards the target with Hills Hills Pontemanco, Padova, and the recommendation that any roadblocks, they would have declared to be refugees from Naples. A Pontemanco a family of anti-fascists hid them first in a mill and then with another family. From December 1943 to April 1945 estic, uncles, cousin and three other relatives were locked up in two small rooms with no windows on the first floor of a small house. The gateway to the hiding camouflaged by a shelf of bottles of wine. The fear of being reported visa and forced them to never get out during all 16 months of imprisonment: only the windows of the ground floor, where down for meals, they could see the life that took place outside of their "prison" forced.
Once the war ended, estic chose not to return to Zagreb with his uncles and joined the steady stream of refugees across Italy with the hope of reaching the Promised Land. In June of 1946 managed to illegally sail to a port in Puglia, and to arrive in Palestine.
63 years have passed since then, has to meet him Merchavia estic a school in Zagreb, married and had three children, but the love and bond with Italy remained unchanged.
