Yom Kippur Quiz
By RABBI SAMUEL J. FOX
(Copyright, 1963,
Jewish Telegraphic Agency, Inc.)
Why does Yom Kippur
of Atonement)
(The Day
occur on the tenth day of
Tishri?
Basically, this is the date
assigned in the Bible (Lev.
16:29) where the tenth day of
the seventh month (Tishri—
because the months in the
Bible are counted from Nissan)
is declared as the day on which
"atonement is made." The
Midrash (Kee Sissa, Shmoth
Rabbah 31) explains that this
day was chosen because it was
the day in which Moses de-
scended from Mount Sinai the
second time bringing with him
the second tablets which indi-
cated that the Almighty had
forgiven the Israelites for their
sin of the Golden calf which
brought about the disintegra-
tion of the first tablets. On this
day Moses heard the words
from the Almighty which pro-
claimed "I have pardoned
according to thy word" (Num-
bers 14:20).
Philo, the philosopher, offers
an interesting explanation for
making the Day of Atonement
occur at this particular season.
He claims that it was done be-
cause this time of the year was
the season of the full harvest.
After working and reaping the
harvest, the inclination of a
gluttunous individual would be
to immediately run and eat
himself to the full with what
he had harvested. Not so, the
thinking individual. He first
indulges in prayer and in fast-
ing seeking atonement and peace
of mind, before he exerts his
right and privilege to indulge.
Thus, it is that after the Day
of Atonement the environment
turns to a merry season of har-
vest in the Feast of Taber-
nacles.
