Yom Kippur in 2021

Yom Kippur (Day of Atonement, Hebrew: יום כיפור) is the last day to atone our sins of the Ten Days of Repentance, which start on the New Year (Rosh Hashanah). This is a fast mentioned in the Bible and the punishment mentioned for not keeping this fast is excommunication.

Congrats to @DailyMailAU for leading with this vile headline. Want a textbook example of how to incite anti-Jewish hatred through the media? Look no further. https://t.co/0Q8S1waNIT https://t.co/chQ4GX2vIU

✡️ Yom Kippur is a significant date on the Jewish calendar, and I’d like to thank Victoria’s Jewish community for observing this holy day from home. Staying apart isn’t easy, but staying home is the best way to keep yourself and our community safe. https://t.co/NZmNORelPc

For everyone at the kolenu Yom Kippur service today. I started the olive oil chat. Me. I started it. https://t.co/6eibLNkfBG

So grateful that it’s possible to be a humanist Jew - to feel deeply connected to our rituals, stories, values and songs, without feeling connected to god. Spending today, Yom Kippur, reflecting on the last year - on what I want to carry forward, and what I want to leave behind https://t.co/fmx8dqK4Ym

@ShusterNoam L'Shana Haba'ah B'Yerushalayim - "Next year in Jerusalem" - is sung at the end of the Passover Seder and the Ne'ila service on Yom Kippur. It has been sung since at least the 15th century

On this day of Yom Kippur, the #ICP wishes our Jewish friends a meaningful and easy fast. G'mar chatima tova! On Rosh Hashanah it is written, on #YomKippur it is sealed. May everyone be sealed in the book of life for a good, new year. https://t.co/UQojUKeYCi

While we can't physically gather, there are other ways to stay connected, with synagogues hosting online services before and after Yom Kippur. Thank you to Jewish communities across Victoria for your contributions to our multicultural state. We wish you all a blessed Yom Kippur! https://t.co/T2uNEd5X5Z

@Raf_Epstein @VictoriaPolice Melbourne VIC is probably, 1 of the only, or only place in the world that hasn't granted Jews a Covidsafe way to worship on their holiest day of the year, Yom Kippur Other places have outdoor provisions allowed. VIC for some reason hasn't managed to find a Covidsafe way...

Melbourne’s orthodox and modern orthodox rabbis have now united to lobby Daniel Andrews to allow Jewish people to gather for Yom Kippur this week. It includes rabbis who are chaplins to Victoria Police and the ADF. Some significant signatories. #springst https://t.co/RlMWlLR5U0
