Yom Kippur confession


So why would a Quaker woman be interested in Yom Kippur?  I have Jewish friends, and I want my children to be conversant and comfortable with many religious beliefs...so we will study this today, on the Holiest day of the year for my Jewish friends.

 

 

The Al-Chet, Yom Kippur Confession

For the mistakes we committed before You under duress and willingly.
For the mistakes we committed before You through having a hard heart.
For the mistakes we committed before You through things we blurted out with our lips.
For the mistake we committed before You through harsh speech.
For the mistakes we committed before You through wronging a friend.
For the mistakes we committed before You by degrading parents and teachers.
For the mistakes we committed before You by exercising power.
For the Mistakes we committed before You against those who know, and those who do not know.
For the mistakes we have committed before You through bribery.
For the mistake we have committed before You through denial and false promises.
For the mistake we have committed before You through negative speech.
For the mistakes we have committed before You with food and drink.
For the mistakes we committed before You by being arrogant.
For the mistakes we committed before You with a strong forehead (brazenness).
For the mistakes we committed before You in throwing off the yoke (i.e. refusing to accept responsibility).
For the mistakes we committed before You through jealousy (lit: 'a begrudging eye').
For the mistakes we committed before You through baseless hatred.
For the mistakes we committed before You in extending the hand.
For the mistakes we committed before You through confusion of the heart.
Jewish source: Traditional

 Judaism 101: Yom Kippur

 Akhlah: Yom Kippur for children  explains a lot of the Jewish customs.  I found the one about waving a white hen or white rooster over your head (depending on whether you are male or female) three times, and then sending it to be slaughtered and donated to the poor, to be interesting. Nowadays, most people use money wrapped in a white hankerchief. I would think that a significant amount of money would be much more of a sacrifice than a live chicken, and more humane as well.

It also has crafts and vocabulary.

Click here: Akhlah: Foldup book of Jonah Craft  is a cute little craft that both Jewish children and those interested in the Old Testament would find interesting.
