No one responds after the deed is done

No one responds after the deed is done

What has been done cannot be undone. It is impossible to 'turn back the wheel.'

(“The sages taught: Once Rosh Hashanah fell on Shabbat, and all the towns gathered together. Rabban Yochanan ben Zakkai said to the sons of Beteira: Let us blow the shofar. They said to him: Let us deliberate. He said to them: Let us blow and then deliberate. After they blew, they said to him: Let us deliberate! He said to them: The shofar has already sounded in Yavne, and no one responds after the deed is done.” — Rosh Hashanah 29b)

Definition (Hebrew)

אֶת הַנַּעֲשֶׂה אֵין לְהָשִׁיב. לֹא נִתָּן 'לְהַחֲזִיר אֶת הַגַּלְגַּל אָחוֹרָה'.

("תְּנוּ רבנן: פַּעַם אַחַת חָל רֹאשׁ הַשָּׁנָה לִהְיוֹת בְּשַׁבָּת,וְהָיוּ כָּל הערים מתכנסין. אָמַר לָהֶם רַבָּן יוֹחָנָן בֶּן זַכַּאי לִבְנִי בתירה: נִתְקַע. אָמְרוּ לוֹ: נָדוֹן.אָמַר לָהֶם: נִתְקַע וְאַחַר כָּךְ נָדוֹן. לְאַחַר שתקעו אָמְרוּ לוֹ: נָדוֹן! - אָמַר לָהֶם: כְּבָר נשמעה קֶרֶן ביבנה, וְאֵין משיבין לְאַחַר מַעֲשֶׂה"- רֹאשׁ שָׁנָה כט ע"ב)
