Rosh Hashanah - Stumpers

ראש השנה
Rosh Hashanah Stumpers and Something to Think About…

  1. We know that a person's parnasah is fixed on Rosh Hashanah. Which three expenses are not included in this equation?

  1. Why is it that two days of Rosh Hashanah are kept even in Eretz Yisroel, whereas other yomim tovim are celebrated there for only one day?

  2. At the end of every slichos in the Tefillah of Mi She'anah we say, “Mi she'anah l'avraham avinu b'har ha'moriyah hu ya'a'nei'nu - "He Who answered Avraham our father on Har HaMoriyah, may He answer us.” What, though, was Avraham's tefillah on Har HaMoriah?

  1. Why are we allowed to eat honey? Usually, if an animal/creature is not kosher, then its products are not either kosher. A bee is not kosher, so why is its' honey?


  1. Why do we eat the apple before the other simanim which include some which are of the shivas ha’minim?a
