Yom Kippur
Biblical origin
The rites for Yom Kippur are set forth in the sixteenth chapter of Leviticus (cf. Exodus 30:10; Leviticus 23:27-31, 25:9; Numbers 29:7-11). It is described as a solemn fast, on which no food could be taken, and on which all work is forbidden. Sacrifices were offered in the Temple in Jerusalem.
