Tishrei (תִּשְׁרֵי in Hebrew) is the 7th month of the Hebrew year and contains three major Jewish holidays. It usually overlaps with September and October in the solar calendar
Tishrei is the 7th Hebrew month and contains Judaism’s High Holy Days: “Rosh Hashana,” the Jewish New Year, “Yom Kippur,” the Day of Atonement, and the holiday of “Sukkot,” the Feast of Tabernacles.
Yoseph was Rachel’s firstborn with Jacob. His brothers threw him into a pit then sold him to merchants, who then sold him as a slave in Egypt. After resisting the temptation of his master’s wife, he was thrown in jail. Due to his dream interpretation powers, Pharaoh made Yoseph the viceroy of Egypt. In that role, Yoseph saved Egypt and the entire known world from a massive famine. He later brought his father, brothers and their families to Egypt, setting the stage for the eventual Egyptian slavery and miraculous Exodus.
Because Yoseph was such a great person, his father Jacob blessed him with two tribes under the leadership of his two sons Ephraim and Menashe (Manasseh).
