   • 2015, Rod Parsley, God's End-Time Calendar, Charisma House, →ISBN, page 107:

     Rosh Hashanah begins a ten-day period during which Jews enter into self-examination and repentance, known as the Ten Days of Awe, which conclude on Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement. During this time, God, in a sense, withdraws His presence in order to create a hunger in the hearts of His people so that they will abandon all else in pursuit of Him.
