\nconsidered to be the most important day for the Jews in the liturgical year. The fast, which we will observe October 1-2, coincided with the sin offering offered for all Israel and the Kol Nidrei, the absolution of vows. Twin goats were chosen by lot, one for sacrifice and the other for release, bearing away the people\u2019s guilt. It was the one time of the year that the high priest entered into the Temple\u2019s Holy of Holies.<\/p>\n
Jesus fulfilled this feast:
