Yom Kippur, also called the Day of Atonement, is the holiest day in Judaism. Lasting about 25 hours, it is observed through fasting and prayer, reflecting its central themes of atonement and repentance. Those observing refrain from eating and drinking to devote the day to seeking God鈥檚 forgiveness for past sins and performing acts of charity.
