The 10th Day of Tishrei. That’s tonight’s (and tomorrow’s) Hebrew Date, which means it will be Yom Kipur. (The Tora [the bible] says – it was evening, it was morning; one day. All days start when the sun goes down.) This day marks the end of 40 days of introspection, repentance, and preparing ourselves to be better humans and to make the world a better place- with renewed vigor.

Yom Kipur 5782 (2021)
Tonight will be the 10th Day of Tishrei. This Hebrew date means it is actually the special day of Yom Kipur. This culminates the 40 days of introspection, repentance, and preparing ourselves to be better humans and to make the world a better place- with renewed vigor. (While the closing prayer of Yom Kipur is called Ne’ila, the locking or the closing of the gates, many Jewish folks consider the 7th day of Sukot- coming up in 12 days (Hoshana Raba) to be the true closing of the books of judgment by Hashem, the Supreme Being.)

Lessons from Jonah.
Welcome to 5777. That’s the year, according to Jewish Tradition. We’ve just finished Sukot, one of the 3 Festivals delineated in the Tora (the others are Pesach [Passover] and Shvuot [Pentecost]), a time of joy and celebration. The past two holidays of this month were called Yamim Noraim, Days of Awe (Rosh Hashana and Yom Kipur)- in other words, they were holy days and not holidays.
