In any religion, you can refer to the High Holy Days of that religion as the most important holy days of that tradition. In Christianity, it's pretty clear that Chistimas and Easter are the two. In Judaism, where the term is commonly used, it refers to Rosh Hashana (the Jewish New year) and Yom Kippur (the Day of Atonement). These fall holy days, 10 days apart, are the climax of the liturgical year in modern Judaism. The interval between them is considered a solemn penetential period, and to a lesser extent, the month beofore Rosh Hashana is also a penetential prelude.
