It is no coincidence that the Jewish New Year, Rosh Hashana is in the autumn, just before the start of the rainy season. There is no better time of year for people to pour their hearts out, like water, before God, praying that this year the rains will come on time, that this rainy season will be bountiful one.
One need only look at the dried out water courses, the shrinking shores of the Sea of Galilee Lake Tiberias or the withered crops and thistles in the fields to see that by early autumn this is land and people crying out for rain.. There is no better time of year for people to pour their hearts out, like water, before God, praying that this year the rains will come on time, that this rainy season will be bountiful one.
