Erev Yom Kippur
First be reconciled to your brother, and then come and offer your gift. Matthew 5:24
In Judaism, the holiest day of the year is
Yom Kippur, the day of atonement. On that day, the nation seeks Gods forgiveness for sins both personal and national.
What is interesting, however, is the day before Yom Kippur, known as Erev Yom Kippur. It represents a persons last opportunity to seek forgiveness from other people before Yom Kippur begins. This is important because, in Jewish thought, you must seek forgiveness from other people before you can seek the forgiveness of God.
Today, we are called to do the same. Jesus pointed out that in order to worship Him with all our heart, we first need to resolve matters with others. In Matthew 5:23-24, He said, If you bring your gift to the altar, and there remember that your brother has something against you, leave your gift there before the altar, and go your way. First be reconciled to your brother, and then come and offer your gift.
Even in a matter so basic as our giving, the ability to truly worship God is hindered by the reality of relationships broken by our wrong actions, attitudes, and words.
So that our worship can be pleasing and acceptable to God, let us make every effort to be reconciled to one anothertoday.
Have you hurt a friend or brother?
Go at once and make things right;
From your heart say, Please forgive me.
How these words bring God delight! D. De Haan

Yom Kippur
Tube Top Day
Tube Top
Tube top has a certain charm,
Calculated to disarm,
One has pictures in the mind,
Of a most outrageous kind.
Rest assured its not that way,
The tube I had in mind today,
Is not the snazzy fashion trend,
Instead I thought of Popeyes friend.

Perry Como sings the Yom Kippur Prayer, Kol Nidre Kol nidray vehsoray, Ushvuay,
vachara-may, vkonah-may,
Uknah-say, vchee-nu-yay, Dindahr-nah,
Udish-tvahnah udah-harimnah,
Udah-sarnah ahl nahf-shatanah.
Me-Yom Kippurim zeh ad
Yom Kippurim haba ah-leynu ltovah.
Bchul-hone Eech-raht-nah-bhone,

Kol Nidre Translation
All vows, obligations, oaths, anathemas,
be they called konam or konas,
or by any other name,
which we may vow or pledge.....
From this Day of Atonement
until the next.....we do repent.
May they be deemed to be forgiven,
absolved, anulled or void,
and made of no effect.
They shall not bind us not have power over
us, and the vows shall not be considered
vows, nor the obligations obligatory,
nor the oaths oaths.
