Er sprach zu ihnen: Gehet, esset wohlschmeckende Speisen und trinket Würziges, sendet auch dem Gaben, dem nichts bereitet worden, denn dieser Tag ist heilig unserm Herrn; und betrübet euch nicht, sondern die Freude des Herrn sei eure Stärke.
Shulchan Arukh, Orach Chayim
1. If it is permitted to fast on Rosh HaShana, and in it is 3 paragraphs. One eats, drinks and is merry [on Rosh Hashanah.] We do not fast, whether on Rosh Hashanah, nor on Shabbos Shuva (the Shabbos of Repentance which is between R'H and Yom Kippur). However, people should not eat to complete satiation, so that they do not reach light-headedness, and that the fear of God should remain on them.
