Sephardic Studies Research Coordinator Ty Alhadeff was featured in an article by the Jewish Telegraphic Agency (JTA) discussing the Sephardic traditions of Rosh Hashanah – the Jewish New Year.
Alhadeff explains in detail the meaning behind Rosh Hashanah dinner called “yehi ratzones” — “may it be God’s will” — which calls for a kind of mini-seder in which a special blessing is said before eating certain ceremonial foods.
