Yom Kippur (the Day of Atonement) is the holiest day on the Jewish calendar, when we fast, pray, seek forgiveness from God and our fellows, and come closer to God. It is the peak of the High Holidays.
On Yom Kippur the Kol Nidrei prayer is recited, almost always explained away to the public as a blessed ceremony of begging God for forgiveness for oaths that were violated, contracts that were broken and promises that were not kept in the past year. The trouble is, that pious picture is a phony.
In truth, Kol Nidrei is a ceremony whereby:
All the perjury you will commit in the coming year and
All contracts you will sign and violate in the coming year, and
All the promises you will break in the coming year — are absolved, with no heavenly punishment accruing as a result.
The basis for the Kol Nidrei rite is found in Talmudic law itself and as follows:
“And he who desires that none of his vows made during the year shall be valid, let him stand at the beginning of the year and declare, ‘Every vow which I make in the future shall be null.” (Babylonian Talmud: Nedarim 23a and 23b).
While less than a third of Judaics attend services on Yom Kippur, even fewer understand the prayer which condones lying. No doubt that the Pope of Rome and the heads of the Protestant fundamentalist churches will convey their esteem for the Yom Kippur ceremony too.
Thanks, Fren! I'll be keeping my eye on 9/23 this month....
Why do you censor the Lord's name? I've seen this before and thought it was atheists treating His name as a slur, but that's not the case here.
I apologize, copy and paste without checking. Holy is the name of the Lord, Glory to his name.
I believe it’s a jewish thing.
the interpretation of the commandment in Deuteronomy 12:3-4 regarding the destruction of pagan altars?
do you write g-d instead of god because of the interpretation of the commandment in Deuteronomy 12:3-4 regarding the destruction of pagan altars?
