Today, few people remember the biblical name of Yom Teruah and instead it is widely known as "Rosh Hashanah" which literally means “head of the year” and hence also “New Years”. The transformation of Yom Teruah (Day of Shouting) into Rosh Hashanah (New Years) is the result of pagan Babylonian influence upon the Jewish nation.
The first stage in the transformation was the adoption of the Babylonian month names.
It is outright bizarre to celebrate Yom Teruah as New Years.
This biblical festival falls out on the first day of the Seventh Month.
n contrast to Babylonian paganism, the Torah does not say or imply that Yom Teruah has anything to do with New Years.
On the contrary, the Feast of Sukkot (Booths), which takes place exactly two weeks after Yom Teruah, is referred to in one verse as “the going out of the year” (Exodus 23:16). This would be like calling January 15 in the modern Western calendar “the going out of the year”. the Torah would not describe Sukkot in this manner if it intended Yom Teruah to be celebrated as a New Years.
