Origin[]
Yom Kippur, also known as the Day of Atonement, is the holiest day of the year in Judaism. The themes of the day are about atonement and repentance. Jewish people traditionally observe this holy day with an approximate twenty five hour period of fasting, intensive prayers and spending most of the day in synagogue services. The traditions for that twenty five hour period include no eating or drinking, no bathing or washing, no marital relations and no anointing oneself with perfumes or lotions.
A tallit is a fringed garment traditionally worn by Jews. The tallit has special twined and knotted fringes known as tzitzit attached to its four corners. The cloth part is known as the “beged” and it is usually made from wool or linen, though silk is sometimes used for a tallit gadol. Also considered a Jewish prayer shawl worn over the outer clothes during the morning prayers and worn during all prayers on Yom Kippur.
