Yom Kippur 5773


Hebrew: G’mar Chatema Tova.
English translation: May you be inscribed in the Book of Life.
I ask forgiveness from those whom I have wronged.
And I forgive those who have wronged me and ask my forgiveness.

Jews praying at the Kotel, the Western Wall, on Yom Kippur, circa 1904. H/T Israel Picture a Day.

Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the Jewish calendar, begins tonight after sundown. In observance, we spend the day in prayer and fasting.
Seraphic Secret will be offline until Thursday.
Karen and I wish all our friends and relatives a G’mar Chatimah Tova, and a meaningful fast.

Comment Rules

Seraphic Secret is private property, that's right, it's an extension of our home, and as such, Karen and I have instituted two Seraphic Rules and we ask commentors to act respectfully.

  1. No profanity.
  2. No Israel bashing. We debate, we discuss, we are respectful. You know what Israel bashing is. The world is full of it. Seraphic Secret is one of the few places in the world that will not tolerate this form of anti-Semitism.

That's it. Break either of these rules and you will be banned.
