Yom Kippur. The inherent energy of the day itself is astounding and miraculous. God created one day in the year, where no matter where and who you are, the day itself purifies and atones for you. This means that in certain instances, God actually erases the sin, even for a Jew that is unaware that it is Yom Kippur. Because of this, Yom Kippur should be the happiest day of the year. Many are rightfully solemn on this day, but it is not forbidden to smile and radiate happiness in your home and to your friends on this day. By all rights, we should be dancing in the streets.
Taken from a recent shiur of Rav Ephraim Kenig, shlita.
G'mar chatima tova to all of Am Yisrael.
Which shiur, and how can I get it?
