THE GOALS<br />
References to Yom Kippur are found in Leviticus 16: 29, Leviticus 23: 27<br />
and Numbers 29: 7.<br />
The Book of Jonah is recited in the afternoon service to show God’s<br />
compassion to all His creatures, Jewish or non-Jewish, even those who<br />
are as sinful as the people of Nineveh if they genuinely repent.<br />
At the end of Neilah, a single blast of the shofar announces that the fast<br />
is over. It is customary to begin the following morning service earlier<br />
than usual to show one’s anxiety to start off in an exemplary way.<br />
