Temples set Yom Kippur services
Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the Hebrew calendar, will be observed tomorrow and Monday with communal prayer services for Oahu Jewish congregations.
After the solemn observance of the 10-day High Holy Day period that began with Rosh Hashana, the focus shifts next weekend to the joyous Jewish holiday of Sukkot. The Festival of the Tabernacles celebrates the period of 40 years in which the Israelites lived in the Sinai desert after Moses led them out of captivity. Events planned include:
