Having begun at sunset on Sunday, 25 September 2022, Rosh Hashanah is being observed by Jewish communities in South Africa and around the world.
“At a time when our country faces many challenges, we draw strength from the deep spiritual reserves of the Jewish community and of all the South African people, as we strive to make our country a better place for all who live in it,” President Ramaphosa said.
“May you and your loved ones be inscribed and sealed in the Book of Life for a good and sweet new year,” the President said.
