The Yom Kippur Perspective: Unbound, Forgiven, Free

Yom Kippur is the holiest day of the year, a time when we abstain from physical pleasures and rise to angel-like clarity. From Kol Nidrei’s haunting melody to Neilah’s closing cry of Shema, the day carries us from release to renewal.

The Rebbe explains that Kol Nidrei is not about G-d’s forgiveness, that comes with the day itself, it is about freeing ourselves from the vows, guilt, and limits that keep us bound. Only then can our truest self emerge, ready to be sealed in the Book of Life.

In honor of Eretz Yisroel, May G-d protect our brave soldiers and return all the hostages in Gaza immediately.

Dedicated in loving memory of Edward Ben Efraim, Shlomo Ben Edward, and Yirachmiel Daniel Ben Gedalia.
