Why would a person post and repost the same question 7 times? Reposting what someone ELSE had posted 6 times, and others posted 4 other times, complete with misspellings?
WHAT is spelled with an H.
Yom Kippur (which, btw, was in front of the original poster when they posted the question, so I can only think that they were misspelling it on purpose as an insult to the most Holy day of the year and those who observe it) must be capitalized.
Kippers are pickled herring, typically served for breakfast in Britain.
To answer the question, posted 17 times so poorly:
YOM KIPPUR is the most Holy and Awesome of days in the Jewish calendar It "started" over 5000 years ago, is commanded in the Torah (look up what that is) and consists of a full day of prayer and repentance, asking for forgiveness of Gd, and having done so of all the people that you might have wronged over the past year), promises to try to live a better and more holy life in the next year, asking for a year of health and happiness, asking for the same for loved ones who have passed away (forgiveness, and continued whatever the best is in the afterlife...we don't really define that), fasting, both to afflict the mortal body and to purify it (depending on how you look at it...that too, is up for discussion), and then is finished off, an hour after sundown, with a big meal or Break Fast, often as a community. At ours, everybody brings a dish, and the hosts put out a lot of dairy and pareve food, and if I don't bring the chopped liver, I get lynched! :)
Well argued, and well explained, as always.
<yuk, chopped liver>
I would starve to death in Britain, gotsta (ha ha) have my eggs, bacon, sausage, grits, and biscuits (with a side order of toast).
