Rosh Hashanah, head of the year or Jewish New Year, begins at sundown on Sunday, 25 September and is celebrated for up to two days, until sundown on Tuesday, 27 September. The ten days between the start of Rosh Hashanah and the start of Yom Kippur Day of Atonement is a time of deep reflection, punctuated, as many Jewish holidays are, with copious amounts of food.

ROME Pope Francis returned last night from a three-day trip to Kazakhstan to attend a Congress of Leaders of World and Traditional Religions, which, at the big-picture level, produced few real surprises.
