? Happy Yom Teruah (Day of Trumpets)
This holiday is commanded in Leviticus 23:23-25 and seems to look forward in anticipation to the coming of the Day of the LORD.
I'm reading from the Budoff Machzor this year and it is supremely beautiful. I'm really looking forward to tomorrows readings!

Happy conjunction day, and if anyone else starts the new/7th month tonight, happy feast of trumpets!
It's traditional to enjoy apples and honey at Rosh Hashana in expectation of a sweet new year, but is there more to this tasty Jewish custom? Is there are deeper spiritual significance that speaks to the high regard our God has for His people Israel - both the native born and those adopted into the covenant? That's the topic of conversation in this midrash with Barry Phillips and David Jones.

What then? Israel failed to obtain what it was seeking. The elect obtained it, but the rest were hardened,
Romans 11:7 ESV
When Paul says that the rest were hardened, this doesn’t mean that they were destined to condemnation from before birth and that God hardened their hearts so that they could never come to faith. If faith is purely a gift of God bestowed at his whim--it isn’t--then no hardening is necessary to prevent it. Those who were hardened were hardened in response to their rebellion, like Pharaoh, not to cause their rebellion.
What then? Israel failed to obtain what it was seeking. The elect obtained it, but the rest were hardened,
Romans 11:7 ESV
Paul’s use of “Israel” can be confusing. At one point he says Israel is the elect. Here he contrasts the elect with Israel. He does this throughout Romans when he talks about God’s choice of one over another. In no case does he mean that the elect is separate from Israel. Rather he is contrasting the whole genetic lineage of Jacob, which is elect in one sense, with that subset that has remained or has become faithful, which is elect in another sense.
The “elect” is not individuals chosen for salvation, but a category of people chosen for a purpose. Sometimes it refers to a person or group chosen to play some role in history or redemption, and sometimes it refers to the faithful remnant. Which is which depends on context.
