Yōm Kippūr, [jom kiˈpuʁ, jɒm kɪˈpʊər, jɔːm ˈkɪpər, ˌjoʊm-] lit. ’Day of Atonement‘

Shabbat Shalom, y’all!

We’re in the book of Book Name (/lɪˈvɪtɪkəs/) – Vayikra reading about Yom Kippur

The English name Leviticus comes from the Latin Leviticus, which is in turn from the Ancient Greek: Λευιτικόν^[3] (Leuitikon), referring to the priestly tribe of the Israelites, “Levi“.

The Greek expression is in turn a variant of the rabbinic Hebrew torat kohanim,^[4] “law of priests”, as many of its laws relate to priests.^[5]

In Hebrew the book is called Vayikra (Hebrew: וַיִּקְרָא), from the opening of the book, va-yikra “And He [God] called.”

֍ ֍ ֍ What is this Torah portion about?

The Torah calls the day Yom HaKippurim (יוֹם הַכִּיפּוּרִים‎), and decrees a strict prohibition of work and fasting (“affliction of the soul”) on the tenth day of the seventh month, later known as Tishrei. The laws of Yom Kippur are commanded by God to Moses in three passages in the Torah:

• Leviticus 16:1–34: Aaron may only enter the sanctuary by performing a complex sacrificial procedure, later known as the Yom Kippur Temple service. This service must be performed yearly on the date of Yom Kippur, while the people are to fast and not work on this date.
• Leviticus 23:26–32: The tenth day of Tishrei is a holy day of atonement. A Temple sacrifice must be offered, while the people must fast and not work, “on the ninth day from evening until evening”.
• Numbers 29:7–11: The tenth day of Tishrei is a holy day; one must fast and not work. The mussaf (additional) sacrifice for the day is specified.

Yom Kippur is mentioned briefly in another context: on Yom Kippur of the Jubilee year the shofar was to be blown. According to some, this is the source for the current custom of blowing the shofar at the conclusion of Yom Kippur. (<<— this and the next edited from wikipedia about this feast)

NOTE: For Older Testament passages I’ve become rather interested in reading them in the Septuagint. I know some passages are different there comparably, but the Septuagint seems to have more depth in understanding than the Bibles translated using the Masoretic text created in about 600-1000 a.d. This is compared to the origins of the Septuagint.

The Septuagint is the very first translation of the Hebrew Bible from Hebrew to another language into Greek. It’s believed that it was probably translated as early as the third century BC. The Septuagint translation of the Hebrew Bible into Greek is traditionally dated to the reign of Ptolemy II Philadelphus of Egypt (285-246 BC).
