Book Synopsis The Holiest Day of the Year Yom Kippur by : Unknown Hebrew
Download or read book The Holiest Day of the Year Yom Kippur written by Unknown Hebrew and published by Unknown Hebrew. This book was released on 2021-11-29 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Yom Kippur (Day of Atonement) is viewed as the holiest day of the year for Israelites. It is a day of Sabbath rest, and it is the only day a fast is required from sunset on one day, to sundown the next day; no food or drink; we are also to set aside other things that connect us to this world and that give comfort to our bodies. Traditionally, Israelites would not bath; they would not oil their bodies, no wearing of shoes, and no marital relations. It is a time of genuinely afflicting your soul. We are called to repent, change our hearts, and return to YAHUAH; it is a time of sincere self-assessment. We are to reach out and make amends to people that we need to make amends with; forgive people who seek forgiveness and let old grudges go. The purpose of all this affliction is to get our minds off of ourselves and focus on our spiritual state; the entire day is focused on praying and asking the Most High for forgiveness. Historically, on the day of Atonement, the high priest was kept awake during the dark of the night, and he dressed in a white linen garment for the sacrifices of the bull, the ram, and the goat. He would make a sacrifice for himself and Israel. In this book, we will explain the purpose of these sacrifices; what was done with the blood as well as the two goats. We will examine how he was to enter into the inner sanctuary of the temple, the Holy of Holies. We not only discuss what the book of Leviticus has to say about this day, but we will examine the book of Jubilees for those who want to go a bit deeper into the details. This book will explore the order of Melchizedek and explain who is the King and high priest; also, we will see why animal sacrifices are no longer needed today. If you want to see where all these dots are connected, read this book. We encourage you to keep the Day of Atonement and find out for yourself why it is viewed as the Holiest day of the year.

Download or read book On Repentance written by Pinchas H. Peli and published by Jason Aronson, Incorporated. This book was released on 2000-05-01 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For five decades prior to his death in 1993, Rabbi Joseph Dov Soloveitchik was the unchallenged leader of modern Orthodox Judaism in the United States. His understanding of both traditional Judaism and secular philosophy shaped two generations of rabbinic students at Yeshiva University, and charted a new course for American Orthodox Jews. In On Repentance, noted scholar Pinchas Peli has gathered the major points of Rabbi Soloveitchik's teachings on teshuvah (repentance), based on the annual series of lectures on the theme of teshuvah, presented on the anniversary of his father's death. For many Jews, these lectures were the major academic and intellectual event of the year. Outside of his followers however, few were able to experience the genius of Rabbi Soloveitchik. He gave his lectures in Yiddish, and generally refused to publish. Now readers can experience the brilliant thinking of this great teacher and sage.
Book Synopsis This Is Real and You Are Completely Unprepared by : Alan Lew
Download or read book This Is Real and You Are Completely Unprepared written by Alan Lew and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2003-08-01 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this “journey of spiritual transformation” (Publishers Weekly) award winning author Rabbi Alan Lew follows the practices and rituals of the Jewish High Holy Days and guides readers through heartbreak, contemplation, and re-birth. There are times in life when we are caught utterly unprepared: a death in the family, the end of a relationship, a health crisis. These are the times when the solid ground we thought we stood on disappears beneath our feet, leaving us reeling and heartbroken, as we stumble back to our faith. The Days of Awe encompass the weeks preceding Rosh Hashanah up to Yom Kippur, a period in which Jews take part in a series of rituals and prayers that reenact the journey of the soul through the world from birth to death. This is a period of contemplation and repentance, comparable to Lent and Ramadan. Yet, for Rabbi Alan Lew, the real purpose of this annual passage is for us to experience brokenheartedness and open our heart to God. In This is Real and You Are Completely Unprepared, Lew has marked out a journey of seven distinct stages, one that draws on these rituals to awaken our soul and wholly transform us. Weaving together Torah readings, Buddhist parables, Jewish fables and stories from his own life, Lew lays bare the meanings of this ancient Jewish passage. He reveals the path from terror to acceptance, confusion to clarity, doubt to belief, and from complacency to awe. In the tradition of When Bad Things Happen to Good People, This Is Real And You Are Completely Unprepared enables believers of all faiths to reconnect to their faith with a passion and intimacy that will resonate throughout the year.
