Hebrew Voices #226 – Yom Kippur: Afflicting Your Soul for Repentance
In this episode of Hebrew Voices #226 - Yom Kippur: Afflicting Your Soul for Repentance, Nehemia hosts a webinar on Yom Kippur to explain the reason for the name of the holy day, and how prayer and fasting could be an abomination to Yehovah, all while exposing the so-called “ingenious” Rabbis.
I look forward to reading your comments!

Yah, I was confused also.
You can’t really “keep” Yom Kippur without the Holy Temple. So, everything we do is an exercise in maintaining the tradition and preparing for when we can actually keep it. That being said, there is no official sighting of the moon either, so it’s just done by great volunteers who are also trying to maintain the tradition and prepare for when it can actually be done officially.
It is important to maintain community as well while in diaspora.
The important aspect is to hold your Yom Kippur service as best you can given community, timing, and needs.
I thought you were keeping Yom Kippur Thursday to Friday evening. Counting from the siting of the new moon. Sorry I’m confused!!
