Deep significance attaches to vows and the other verbal undertakings: \u201cIf a man makes a vow to God, or makes an oath to obligate himself, he must not break his word. He must do everything he said\u201d (Num. 30:3). In general, it is preferable not to invest voluntary commitments with the sacred status of a vow. \u201cIf you refrain from making a vow, you will not be guilty\u201d (Deut. 23:23). \u201cIt is better not to vow than to make a vow and not fulfill it\u201d (Eccl. 5:4).<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Excerpted from the the <em>Koren Rosh Hashanah
