 We say “On Rosh Hashanah it is written, on Yom Kippur it is sealed.”

We say “May you be inscribed in the Book of Life.”

Tradition holds that a person who dies on Yom Kippur dies “without sin”, as he or she has cleansed themselves through the rituals of the holiday.

But no one should die in the steps of the synagogue while defending the building from a terrorist attack.

We live in perilous times.
