Observance of Yom Kippur has many aspects. It is a day of fasting (not eating any food or drinking anything including water). It is usually a day of prayer and study. As Yom Kippur is an extremely important day, there are many traditions around it. Some Jews will not wear leather on Yom Kippur. Some wear mourning clothes or even the ritual clothes that they plan to be buried in. Yom Kippur falls on the 10th day of Tishri and is also the last of the "Days of Awe". It never occurs on a Sunday, Tuesday or Friday.

- Yom Kippur is the time where not only those of the Jewish faith, but people of all faiths should come together to tell Dr. Stephen Colbert they are sorry for whatever they have done to wrong him in the past year. Notable people who have apologised to Dr. Colbert this year are:
* Bill “Papa Bear” O’Reilley for stealing Dr. Colbert’s idea for a television show.
* Bill Clinton for letting 9/11 happen.
* The Associated Press for their rude interpretation of Dr. Colbert’s White House Correspondents' Association Dinner speech.
* Kim Jong Il for stealing Dr. Colbert’s sunglasses.
- Yom Kippur (Hebrew: יוֹם כִּפּוּר or יום הכיפורים, IPA: [ˈjom kiˈpur]), also known as Day of Atonement, is one of the holiest days of the year for the Jewish people. Its central themes are atonement and repentance. Jews traditionally observe this holy day with a 25-hour period of fasting and intensive prayer, often spending most of the day in synagogue services. Yom Kippur completes the annual period known in Judaism as the High Holy Days.
- Yom Kippur (also the Day of Atonement) is a holy day in the Jewish faith. It is traditionally observed by a full day of fasting and reflection on the wrongs committed over the previous year. Captain David Gold observed Yom Kippur in the year 2373 at Magatha IV, and at The Captain's Table (SCE short story: "An Easy Fast")
- The purpose of the day is to celebrate the historic invention of kippered fish, the number one most favorite food of the Jewish people. It is through eating kippered fish that atonement for one's sins is made. Eating and drinking are not allowed on Yom Kippur, with the obvious exception of kippered fish. This includes salmon, herring, and anything mixed with these in a recipe.
- Yom Kippur is the most solemn holy day in Judaism. It is a day of atonement (prayer, repentance and fasting) observed in some way by nearly all Jewish people. Observant Jews refrain completely from all food and drink on Yom Kippur. Most of the day is spent in the synagogue. "Before the destruction of the Temple in Jerusalem, there was an elaborate ceremony of confession and repentance led by the high priest and including the sacrifice of a goat, the scapegoat." (Leviticus 16.)
- I didn't know it was Yom Kippur evening, she forgot, and Al is at the door four hours early and she's in panic and I'm in the bedroom wearing nothing but L-socks. There's no back exit and like hell no fire escape. Whoom whoom whoom. Dive dive dive! Under the bed... life for the moment is deceptively calm. I hear footsteps, voices, the dreadful small talk of middle class family life. That I can't take, I'm outta here! Hands tightly clenched I slide out from the bed and try to slide quietly past the bathroom door but Al, the pig, is takin' a shit with the bathroom door wide open. In horror our eyes meet, but I'm through the kitchen and out the apartment and down three flights of stairs, socks naked, balls bouncing, slipping on pants before anyone sees. This all happened back in September in

This includes salmon, herring, and anything mixed with these in a recipe. But Yom Kippur's meaning has been expanded. It has become a day in which people go out in the streets to apologize for all the road rage they have committed in the past year, or two years if they were in the hospital during the last Yom Kippur.

In horror our eyes meet, but I'm through the kitchen and out the apartment and down three flights of stairs, socks naked, balls bouncing, slipping on pants before anyone sees. This all happened back in September in 19 uhh 46 and I think I'm still here because a certain Al once stopped to wipe his ass before trying to kill me. This is the old dude Howie J. Reynolds and you're listening to Less Than Jake.

"Before the destruction of the Temple in Jerusalem, there was an elaborate ceremony of confession and repentance led by the high priest and including the sacrifice of a goat, the scapegoat." (Leviticus 16.) Just prior to the beginning of services on the eve of Yom Kippur, the congregation recites Kol Nidre, or "all vows". This Aramaic prayer is an appeal to God to forgive vows unfulfilled that do not affect any other person. Vows affected include only those made to oneself, or between oneself and God. Anti-semites have tried to use the prayer to malign Jews as untrustworthy. Honest self-examination, communication with one's Maker, commitment to become a better person — all these are encouraged throughout the year in various religious systems, but there is one day on the Jewish calendar that is tailor-made for such activities: Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement... Yom Kippur is celebrated on the tenth day of Tishri, i.e., ten days after Rosh Hashana, the Jewish new year. The holiday is instituted at Leviticus 23:26 et seq.
