The Western Wall
An Orthodox Jew announces the beginning of a new year with the blowing of a shofar. Psalm 81 commands: “Blow the shofar at the new moon, at the full moon, on our feast day, for it is a statute for Israel, an ordinance of the God of Jacob.”
All the photographs featured in the calendar were taken by an Israeli photographer named Jack Hazut of www.israelimage.net.
