BINA's "Yom Kippur at Home" Guide

Yom Kippur at Home:

A Reading and Ritual Guide for the Pre Fast and Break Fast Meals

Download BINA’s new free "Yom Kippur at Home" guide to add meaning to your High Holidays.
Whether or not you attend synagogue on Yom Kippur, this new guide offers inspiring readings and rituals for you to do at home.

About the Guide

As secular and cultural Jews, some of us may find difficulty in connecting to traditional Yom Kippur rituals – such as fasting and attending traditional synagogue prayers – and some of us may or may not participate in such rituals at all.

Some of the most observed traditions – by religious and secular Jews alike – are the Pre Fast and Post Fast meals, but few resources have been written to add meaning to these events.

This guide is intended to add meaning to these meals and help you make the Yom Kippur experience your own. It can be used in your home, around your table, on your own or with family and friends, and you can let the discussions and activities take you in the direction of your choosing. Download today and enjoy!

The Shadow of Everywhere – Parashat Vayikhal | Ran Oron

Seven times Joseph weeps, more than any other person in the Torah. He does not cry when he is thrown into the pit, nor when he is sold to the Ishmaelites. He does not weep when cast into prison, nor when betrayed by his companions there. He does not weep from happiness at his success. Seven times he weeps, but only in his encounters with his brothers, with his father, in the presence of, or facing, his family. […]
