14. Yom Kippur
is the Jewish day of atonement...you fast from sundown to sundown, all your sins for the past year are absolved. (Cliff Notes version. ;))

15. If You Sin on Yom Kippur...
...Do you have to wait a whole year to get rid of that additional sin? And do you have to proclaim all your sins in any way (write them down, tell a rabbi, whatever)?

Thanks for the Cliff Notes version. Shalom. (I think.)

16. You have to wait a whole year...
Edited on Sun Oct-05-03 05:49 PM by Darranar
I believe. You'd have to ask someone who knows a bit more about rabbinical tradition then me about that.

One does not proclaim their sins individually, but as a congregation a prayer is recited that lists basically every possible sin. The congregation, as a whole, confesses for it.

Hope this helps you.
