Leviticus 16:29-30

29. And shall remain unto you, an eternal statute, in the seventh month on the tenth of the month (Tishri 10), you shall humble your souls, and shall not do any work, neither the native nor the sojourner dwelling among you;

30. For on this day He shall provide atonement (purification) upon you to cleanse you, from all your sins before YAHVAH you shall be cleansed. Direct translation from the Hebrew text.

“Yom Kippur (the Day of Atonement) is the holiest day on the Jewish calendar, when we fast, pray, seek forgiveness from G-d and our fellows, and come closer to G-d. It is the peak of the High Holidays,” Chabad.org.

A time to reflect on our deeds, good or bad, and repent for the bad. A time to seek guidance from YAHVAH for a better life and future. A time to thank Him for all He has done for us.
