Yom Kippur falls ten days after Rosh Hashanah and closes the Days of Awe with a full day of FASTING and PRAYER. It is the most solemn date on the Jewish calendar, spent in the SYNAGOGUE asking for FORGIVENESS and making amends, and it ends at nightfall with a single long blast of the SHOFAR. This word find collects eleven of its terms, including the closing service called NEILAH.
