On inauguration day, you don’t bring up the past. Imagine standing before a king’s coronation and saying, “Do you remember when I betrayed you? When I failed you?” That’s insanity. No one does that.

On inauguration day, you don’t bring up the past. Imagine standing before a king’s coronation and saying, “Do you remember when I betrayed you? When I failed you?” That’s insanity. No one does that.
Rabbi Shalom Landau שליט״א explains: Rosh Hashanah is the same. It’s not the day for confession, it’s the day for crowning the King. He doesn’t want to hear your mistakes — He wants your loyalty, your presence, your voice declaring long live the King.
That’s why we don’t even eat nuts on Rosh Hashanah. Not because of allergies, but because the word egoz equals chet, sin. We don’t bring even a hint of sin to the table. This day isn’t about failure — it’s about Majesty. Not about your past — about His crown.
