THE JEWISH SCAPEGOAT

 

Just before sunset on the 1st October 2025 corresponding to the 9th day of the Hebrew month of ‘Tishrei’, Jewish people the world over will begin a 26 hour fast to usher in ‘Yom Kippur’.

I would like to look at the ‘Parshiot’ (‘Torah’ portions) and the ‘Haftorot’ (readings of the prophets) for ‘Yom Kippur’ (Day of Atonement).

 

The ‘parsha’ reading from the first ‘Torah’ Scroll is from Leviticus 16:1-34. This portion includes the instructions to Moses and Aaron concerning the procedure for the priestly service on ‘Yom Kippur’, which would enable them to achieve atonement for Israel; the portion then goes on to detail the laws of ‘Yom Kippur’.

 

Numbers 29:7-11 is read from a second ‘Torah’ Scroll which describes the sacrificial service for ‘Yom Kippur’.
