Yom Kippur Begins at Sundown
Yom Kippur, the Jewish Day of Atonement, begins at sundown today.
It is a time for repentance and forgiveness, a day to wipe clean the moral slate for a new year....It is regarded as the holiest day in the Jewish year, and is the day that Jews repent for offenses against God and neighbor.
Observant Jews will fast from food, drink and pleasures for the 24 hours of Yom Kippur. No work is permitted.
We'll be back Monday night .
