  1. I never understood buying a new knife Erev Rosh hashana as a segulah for parnassah. החותך חיים לכל חי. Firstly what why is חיים being understood as a reference to parnosoh? Secondly there are so many other piyutim that make reference to such ideas who specifically this one? Why not also buy a new measuring cup for "moded mayim" etc.?

  2. Kevarim not necessarily tzaddikim. Purpose is not to daven rather to face concept of death....
