The scripture tells us in Leviticus 16 and 23 that this day is a day of great repentance and that we are to “afflict” ourselves. The rabbis, since the time of Moses, yes, even Jesus and Paul celebrated and fasted on this event. The Day of Atonement is a day for great compassion, mercy and acts of kindness towards others. Even though we are fasting food and water on that day, it is a day for seeking the Lord to reveal areas of our own life that need to marry up to His will. An act of introspection, leading to conviction by the Holy Spirit.
Traditionally, it has been believed that this is the day that the book of life, in-between, and book of death are decided upon and this correlates incredibly to the end time, day of judgement, where God decides on who will live eternally with Him or without.
