What is Yom Kippur?
Yom Kippur is the holiest day of the year for Jews. It is a day of fasting and atonement, prayer, reflection and forgiveness. The name Yom Kippur means “Day of Atonement” in Hebrew; it’s also known as the “Sabbath of Sabbaths.” Yom Kippur begins at sundown on October 9th this year (2019) and ends after sunset on October 11th with Rosh Hashanah beginning shortly thereafter. In addition to fasting from food and drink (except water), observant Jews also abstain from wearing leather shoes or engaging in sexual relations during this period. The Jewish day begins at sundown and ends a full 24 hours later at sundown. The day is divided into two 12-hour periods, or “watches,” with each watch corresponding to one half of the day.
The first watch begins at sundown and ends at midnight. The second watch begins at midnight and ends at midday on the following day. Jews typically sleep during the first watch and then pray in the synagogue during the second watch. One of the most important aspects of Yom Kippur is atonement. It is a day devoted entirely to focused prayer and repentance for sins committed throughout the year. According to Jewish tradition, God inscribes everyone’s name in an “account book,” on Rosh Hashanah (the Jewish New Year). The account book is sealed on Rosh Hashanah and opened on Yom Kippur; those whose names are written therein will be spared from divine judgment during the coming year.
History of Yom Kippur
Yom Kippur is a Jewish holiday that occurs on the tenth day of Tishri, the seventh month in the Hebrew calendar. It marks the end of Yom Teruah (the Day of Trumpets) and is considered to be the holiest day in Judaism, second only to Shabbat. On this day, jews fast from sunrise until sunset, engage in prayer and repentance for their sins throughout history and seek forgiveness from God so they can be reconciled with him before Rosh Hashanah begins on October 1st.
It is customary for Jews to ask forgiveness from one another, and it is also common to exchange gifts at this time. This holiday serves as a cleansing of the soul and a preparation for the new year ahead. Kippur is also known as Yom HaKippurim (Day of Atonement) and Tish B’Av. In Hebrew, the word “Kippur” means “atonement.” The holiday is observed by fasting, prayer and repentance. Jews believe that their sins are forgiven if they pray and repent during this time. The day is also considered a time of cleansing, when people ask forgiveness from one another and make amends with those they have harmed in the past year. The Jewish calendar is based on the lunar cycle. It begins with Rosh Hashanah and ends with Yom Kippur, which is a period of 10 days known as the High Holy Days.
Flower Variety and Plants for Yom Kippur
Yom Kippur is a Jewish holiday that is celebrated on the 10th day of the Jewish month of Tishrei. It is also known as The Day of Atonement, or simply Yom Kippur.

Because flowers are a great way to show someone you are thinking about them during this time, we have provided some suggestions. We have included a few ideas below for different types of flowers that you can use, depending on the person’s religion.
- White Orchids – If your recipient is Jewish and has a traditional Yom Kippur service, you may want to consider sending them some beautiful flowers like white orchids. These beautiful blooms will last long after the holiday has ended, so they can enjoy them long after they have fasted.
- Roses or Tulips – If you are sending flowers to someone who is not Jewish, but has a religious service during this time, consider sending them some beautiful roses or tulips. These colorful flowers will add a bit of cheer to their day!
- Succulents or Pineapple Plants – If your recipient is not religious, but just wants to be reminded that they are thought about on this special day, consider sending them some succulents or even pineapple plants. These plants are easy to care for and can live in many different types of environments.
