Yom Kippur
We Are Not Individuals
Why were the last two commandments given to the Jewish people, the Mitzvah of Hakhel and writing a Torah?
Why do we confess n Yom Kippur for sins we may have not even committed? and why would we say for the sins WE have committed?
Judaism gives a shared responsibility for one another, we are not individuals, but are part of a collective whole impacting each other in more ways you can imagine.
