Eve Of The New Year: Rabbi Julius Weinberg of the Beth Israel Center and his family, like Jewish families all over the world, gathered last night for a ritual meal after synagogue services marking the beginning of the Jewish new year. Here, he feeds his 2 1/2-year-old daughter, Naimah, a piece of apple dipped in honey, while he repeats the traditional expression, "May it be God's will to grant us a good and sweet year." A piece of the rich white bread concealed by the cloth before him will also be dipped in honey as a symbol of hope that experiences of the coming year will be sweet. Mrs. Weinberg looks on.

Members of the family are (left to right) Naimah, age 7, Rabbi Weinberg, Roni, age 5, and Mrs. Weinberg. The Passover festival will end Tuesday, April 19.
