10 Days of Tshuvah countdown - Day 9. I am writing this ahead of time and it should post automatically on the right day. Today is the first day and and the 2nd evening of Rosh Hashanah. Since the holiday fell on Shabbat this year, we did not blow the shofar, but we will tomorrow.

I took a 6-week class this fall in liturgy and themes for the Days of Awe. One of the class days was September 11, and that night we studied - what else? - Unetaneh Tokef.

(The self-reflection exercise using Psalm 27 rolled off the bottom of the page, but you can find it here.)

UPDATE: A bit of the debate about blowing the shofar when Rosh Hashanah falls on Shabbat, via Paleojudaica.
