In the first millennium, many prayers were written for the evening of the New Year, but over time they fell out of favor. This new section, dedicating the new year, addresses a felt need to reflect on the year that is beginning: to celebrate the world that God has given us, consider our human vulnerability and fallibility and devote ourselves to those matters that we know should have prominence in our lives.
This one-page excerpt from the Mahzor contains various texts and kavanot for Tashlikh.
