Rosh Hashanah - Apple And Honey Meaning



I remember when I was very small, several times my mother gave me some apple slices, and then dipped them with a little honey. It's true, apples are quite sweet fruit, added with honey, so they taste even more sweet. And every Rosh Hashanah celebration, apples and honey are always one of the typical dishes, which also reminds us of a prayer for an increasingly sweet new year.

However, in spiritual Kabbalah, the apple symbolizes the fruit of Da'ath, namely the Fruit of Knowledge of Good and Evil. Meanwhile, honey is symbolized as purity, medicine or recovery. So, the meaning of an apple dipped in honey is, sweetening judgment, namely forgiveness and love. Thus, it means that when the Jewish New Year begins, a new chapter of life begins. And love with forgiveness, will sweeten one's judgment.

Love and Light, Nuriella.
