ROBSH HA .SfAHN
Of all the wonders 'omprised in the history
of the human race there are perhaps none
that transcend t'Aose which signalize the an
nals of Israel., Fkom the days in which Abra
ham took auto wife his step-sister, and on the
plains rf 'Tr, in the contemplation of the mar
velt' of the universe, burst the bonds of idola
tty and acknowledged the one God, to these
days, in which the nillions of his descendants
are sactteredthroughout the world, aliens from
N; their promised land, and as thout a country to
call their own, proodigy has followed miracle
- and miracle prodigy until the human mind
seemis scarcely able to compass them. And
notthe leastnotable of these miracles is the
'xistenee, evtei now, of this wonderful race,
to after bondages and .persecutions, sufferings
and punishments, wrongs and oppressions,
nl, aughterings and spoliations, such as the
chronicles of no other nation record. There
they'tre!-now, as in the tents of the Father
of the Faitl, as in Egypt and in Baby
lon, as in temple of Solomon and in
the synagogues of Chorazin, Bethsaida and
bf Capernaum, as in the private recesses of the
to Eastern ghettoes, and of the Jtidenstrllisse of
later days,--alas, how late!--there they are,
ve proclaiming now, as then, the great shibbo
leth of their faith, "Hear O! Israel! the Lord
he oumr God is one God!" and now, as then, con
he forming, as far as practicable, with the rites
and ceremonies ordained by Moses.
, Interesting all of these cannot but be to the
Y, reflective mind ; most of them are of impres
on sivesolgmnity; and many of them are of af
feeting sigqifictnce. Not a few of them in
a volve curious scientific facts and questions;
an andparticularly is this the case in relation to
t-. the divisions of time and the dependent regn
fe lation of fasts and festivals, Our hours,
a our days, our weeks, our months, our
n_ years, are not the same as those of the
d- *Hebews, although these be all meas
. ured by the * motions of the earth
orin relation to the leavenly bodies. Of the di
vision of hours into minutes nothing was
known to them. As the civil day com nences
to with usatrp 4night, the astronomical at noon,
r and ado with some people the day commences
w veith the rising of the sun, so with the Jews
n the day conaences with the setting of the
sun. They understand 4t to have thus com
'y menced at 'the creation, according to the
be Scriptnral statement, "And the Evening and
a the Morning were the first day." This does
!s- not alter the length of the day ; but, from the
si- system of designating any portion of the day
ri or night by ia term signifying both the night
b and the day, it led to the counting of a part
he of one day, withthewhole following night, and
to a part of the next day, as three days and three
ce nights. The division of the day into twenty
f fopr hours was not known to the ancient
, Jews. The period of daylight was dtided by
e them only by the rising, culminating and set
ting of thesun. ..Noother division is found in
the Old Testament. At a later period they
divided it like the Romans, into four parts,
Se onsisting of three hours. These hours,
wever; were not, ];ke ours, always equal.
t Each of thesm was the twelfth part of the
' time the sn was above the horizon. So that
if this in wintj Ni'as inse hours of our time,
each of their hours would be but forty-five
of our minutes. If in summer daylight
Jased fifteen of oua hours, each of their .
Swould be equal to an hour And ditee
intes of our 'time, These unequal hours f
are tehnia ycsled lled "temporaryhours." Iu
Ji4a rthe dpys throughout the year were I
nearly of equal length, however ; and so the
".temporary hours" -were not of as different a
lengths as we have suppoged them, for, the r
ke of ,ill.etration.
v. A ees -or vespers the Jews distinguished
two. Onecommencedat noonand terminated i
t at the setting of the sun; the second com- I
a, menced at the latter peridd. The time in- t
eTuded between the two was spoken of as be- o
tween the two vespers.
l. The night-that is the period from sunset y
n suinrise-Lamong the Hebrews was dliided I
into four parts called "watches," each of themin
is Jstig ,three temporary hours. The first e
wn t itCh spoken of in Lamentations as "' thi o
' begitifinhgf thrnwatehes'" the second watch I
to is called "the middle watgh," in the book of p
Judges ; the third watch apears to have had C
no other epitht ; the fourh was called " the v
marting'watch."
. The 'Jewish week consisted, of seven days c
, including the Sabbath; but they had no eother
a4 designations ;than those of their order rom E
e the, Sabbath--firt, second, third, etc. The t
1ft ellifi~. 'Jewe, at a later day, gave the name s
y p9f i's: roscraai gnifying " prephration "-to i
the day, before the Sabbath. The laws
Sobliged thesrews to so complete an abstinence o
from :labor on the Sabbath, that they were ii
a prohibited rom preparing food to esl "or'even
; froirligtitig re for any purpose. Another tl
farn for the day before the Sabbath, not used y
,o byt~IeHellenists, was the Vesper of thewSab- b
hsth; This copumenced at the ninth hour- -;
three temporary hours after noon, that is,
i T1' 'then set about preparing whatever n
woki necessary for the Sabbath, so is to finish I
before upset; and if they had a journey to g
mtke they contrived it so as not to have to a
travel after aunseto ~ Besides this week of a
days, the Hebrews had a week of years, A a:
period of seven years, the last of which was ,
,alled aSabbatical year, and a week of weeks fc
o of years, a period of forty-nine years, the last ,
r of which tas.calledthe Great Sabbatical year, to
or the yeas of Jubilee. The Sabbatical year, hi
v says Milman, "was another remarkable in- J1
1-stedce of. departure from every rule of politi- ~
cal wisdom, in reliance upon divine provi- to
Sdenoce. The whole land was to lie fallow ; the lb
t whole people were given up to legalized idle- te
a ness. All danger of famine was to b3 pre- T;
l yented by the supernaturally abundant har- be
vest of the sixth year; but it is even more th
remarkable, that serious evils did not ensue
from this check on the national industry." d
Spontaneous productions were common pro- th
party. Of the Grand Sabbatical year, or year wi
of Jubilee, we will speak presently. M
Of months the Jews had like ourselves two tri
kinds; but they were both lunar. One of ne
these consisted of the period elapsing be- lif
tweeanthe departure of the moon from a par
ticular point in the heavens and her return to is
it. This was called "the periodic month," ris
and is equivalent to our "tropical month," or ral
our".i, sidereal miro'th "-there -being a differ- H
once of only some seven seconds between go,
tbhese: It consisted of twenty-s'en days, att
i bhouis, arid forty three minutes, nearly. sys
XThe othr montlawas measured by the space off
elapsing between two conseoutive conjuac- the
i~ons of the sun and moon, and consisted of it i
twenty nine days, twelve houirs, forty-four cer
minute aa id some seooada. Thi' was the by
month in general use.. To allow for the odd ma
hours and minutes, the months were made wil
to consistalternately of twenty-nine and thirty the
days,..the Sanhedrim origibalIy regdlating hay
them. The month was not calculated from sun
the period of'the actual conjunction of the ago
ssu and doOnea but from that pg the latter'a prs;
bepoming visible after it, and hence the ap
Selication of the Thrase "new moon." shich
is a misnomer :s now applied among us. In
order to discover this period, trusty otbsevers
were sent to the neighboring mountains to
observe it; and on seeing the crescent, they
hastened, even on the sabbath, to inform the
Sanhedrim, and the people were notified of
it by the blowing of trumpets, while they
cried out "The festival of new moon! the
s festival of new moon! " This festival is based
upon the command in Numbers, e. 28 v.11-15.
e that a burnt offering shall be made in the
Sbeginning of the months. It seldom hap
d posed that in the serene climate of Judea the
d moon was obscured by clouds; when it did,
e the Sanhed-im decided when the month com
menced.
s The Jews had both a solar and a lunar year.
The synodic month which comnprised the
0 autumnal equinox originally commenced the
Syear. Bnubfter the departure from Egypt,
r oses ordained that in memory of the pesiod
- of the deliverance, which was the spring, with
the month comprising the vernal equinox,
d should commence a year, which is called the
e sacred er ecclesiastical year, as the former is
,f called the civil year. The months had at.
no other designation than that of their
first, second, third, etc., except tha e
d vernal equinox, called Abib (green corn-ear),
and that of the autumnal equinox, calledEtha
nun (in reference to the ten penitential days
commencing it). About the time of the cap
a tivity they were named Nisan (formerly Abib,
and answering to parts of March and April,)
f Iyar, Sivan, Tamuz, Ab, Elnul, Tisri, (formerly
Ethanun, and answering to parts of Septem
ber and October.) Marchesvan, Kitslen, TeLbt,
s Shabet, and Adar. These twelve months,
however, comprise but three hundred and
fifty-ounr days, or more than eleven days less
than the solar year; so that after three years
ethe close of the lunar year would arrive more
than a month before that of the solar year.
To correct this, a thirteenth month, called
embolismic or intercalary, .was added every
third year. This was named Veadar.
Other forms of anunal commencements ob
served by the Jews were that of Elul, (the
sixth month, answering to parts of August aud
September,)fcom which, account was taken of
all cattle brought forth, in order to regulate
the tithes to be paid oh them; and that of
Shabet, (the eleventh month, answering to
pl arts of January and February,) from which
was dated the period, within:three years from
which it was prohibited to eat the fruait of
y trees then being planted.
t et another hind of yearly period observed
I by the Israelites, as already observed, was the
Jubilee, or Grand Sabbatical year. As the
Sabbatical year consisted of a week of years,
or seven years, so this consisted of a week of
weeks of years, or seven times seven-that is,
forty-nine years. The ordinance for this n :11
be found in the twenty-fifth chapter of Le
viticus, from the eighth verse. In this year
all debts were cancelled, all property which
hadbeed sold or alienated was gratuitously re
stored to the original owner, and all slaves were
manumitted. "All the estates," says Milman,
"were to revert to their original owners, all
burdens and alienations ceased, and the whole
land returned to the same state in which it
stood at the first partition. A singular agra
rian law, which maintained the general
equality, and effectually prevented the accu
mulation of lIge masses of property in one
family, to the danger of the national inde
pendence and the establishment of a great
landed oligarchy."

ae In this-iketch of the divisions of time
at among the Israelites, it is to be observed that
in neither scientific exactness nor critical deter
minatidn on disputed points is pretended to. r
d Adeqluateness for popular purposes-is all that
ad is aimed at, with the object of illustrating how
1- much more may be involved in a question at
a- tracting so little attention as a Jewish festival
a- ordinarily does among us. It was suggested
by the fact that with the setting of the sun
at yesterday cdmmenced the great festival of
d Rosh Hashanah, or the Feast of Trumpets,
as ushering in the civil year 5627 of the Jewish
at era. The former name signifies "Beginning
if of the Year," equivalent in name to our New
h Year's Day. It is called the Feast of Trum
>f pets, pr- excellence, to distinguish it from osh
d Chodesh, as the first of every other month
oe was called, on which also, as has been seen,
trumpets were blown. Its observance is thus
ps commanded :
or "And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying
m Speak unto the children of Israel, saying : In t
to the seventh month, in the first of the month, i
to shallye have a Sabbath, a memorial of blow
o ing of trumpets, an holy convocation. Ye
w shall do no servile work; but ye shall offer an
e offering, made by fire, unto the Lord."-Levit
e icus, chapter 23, verses 23-25.
" And in the seventh month, on the first of
r the month; ye shall have a holy convocation;
d ye shall do no servile work; it is a day of it
blowing of trumpets unto yo."--Numbers,
- Ihipter 29, 1st veire:
S4, The five verses following that last quoted
r may be refened to for particulars of the offer
Ssinge commande dto bema e.' Next to 0om -
KIippur; `the =gret Day of Atondihent,-which
Soccurs on the tenth day after it, Rosh Hash
anah is considered the most solemn holiday
a of the year, especially as commencing the
"Ten Days of Repentence," closing with the
former holiday; and as being the day on
which the creation of the world was comple
ted; that on which the sacrifice of Isaac by I
his father took place'; and that on which the
MIessiah will come. The feast is also called
"Yonm Hadin," or Day of Judgment, for the
teachings of the Rabbis say that on that day a
the.Almighty reviews the career of every crea- a-,
ture, meting out its fate for the next year. "']
The belief was that on this day the good and
bad deeds of each individual were balanced in -
the three books : one the book of life in which
good acts were entered; one the book of
death, in which evil deeds were recorded ; and
the third the boob of the middle state, in
which indifferent actions were inscribed.
Maimodides says that the blowing of the
a trumpets is symbolic of the awaking of sin
ners to repentance and to the leading of a new
life.
The hearing of the sound of the trumpets eoie
is obligatory on every Israelite, and at thel"
rising of the sun to-day, the blowing of the e:.
ram's-horn, or Shopharl, as it is called in a,,r
Hebrew, will commence in each of the synay- A
gogues of the city, and the faithful will be in eel
attendance. In the English and German syr
synagogues they usually appear in shrouds to c,
offer their prayers; but this is not done among -
the Spanish and Portuguese. Jews. Whether
it is among the Polish Jews or not, we are not P,
certain. The holiday is further particularized
by'congratulations among friends, differences
made up among enemies, and general good
will prevailing. The festival will last two days,
that is, till sunset-or more accurately, per- ans
haps, till starlight-to-morrow evening. At Boa
sunset this evening the congregation will t )
again assemble, and, commencing with
praeyer go throouh religious services, Ty
i morrow till noon the same. The Shopliar will
again be sounded ill tie mornriin'g, end no ortho
dox israelite will partake of any food before
havring hc.erd that tone, wlch - to rerilnd
him that ctod e it itn jud-gment, and that tlh;
same voice s.:11 anounee the last judgment.
'The twenty--t'st and twenty-second bhapters
i of Geneis, reciting the birth andl sacritice of
SIsaac, will be recited, together with the first
I chapter of Samuel; and appropliate sermons
Swill be preached. Again in the evening, the
re"gious services will he repeated; and so the
t festival ofl Rosh Hashanah will close. Those
- of our renders who may have an opportunity
1;t find an early mor.iing visit to the syna
gogue, as we have intimated, equally interest
ing, iteressive, and significant.
The ram's-horn is blown every moning
doring the ten penitential days, and on the
evening closing Tom Kipper-, the last of them.
