 ;D I thought this was a thread about Yom Kippur being similar to Purim. Because Yom KIpur is the day like PURim. Which comes to teach us the power of today. Very powerful day. Very special ecpecially when we the Mitzvot of the day (Megillah, charity (or food) to at least 2 poor people, having the proper meal, prayer being even more soo answered today and learning Torah.
The Academy of Elijah taught, whoever studies the laws (of the Torah) every day, (he) is guaranteed to have a share in the World to Come.

‏119:139 צִמְּתַתְנִי קִנְאָתִי כִּישָׁכְחוּ דְבָרֶיךָ צָרָי
My zeal incenses me, for my adversaries have forgotten Your words.
‏119:141 צָעִיר אָנֹכִי וְנִבְזֶה פִּקֻּדֶיךָ, לֹא שָׁכָחְתִּי.
 I am young and despised; I have not forgotten Your precepts.

" A fool does not realize, and an unwise person does not understand this (i.e. the following:) When the wicked bloom like grass, and the evildoers blossom (i.e. when they seem extremly successful), it is to destroy them forever (i.e. they are rewarded for their few good deeds in this World, and they will have no portion in the World to Come!)

Listining now, Rabbi Wallerstein says Purim is greater then Yom Kippur, because on Purim G-d wrote that we are dead, its over, .... so theirs isn't stronge judgement on the Jews. (He says it much better on his latest lecture though).

Kol Nidre can never fall out on a Thursday Night. Yom Kippur can never fall the day before or after Shabbat because then there would be 2 days in a row where you couldn't cook and you couldn't light the candles the night in between. It can also never fall on a Tuesday so Hoshana Rabba won't be Shabbat, so we will be able to do the seven hoshanot which is not allowed on Shabbat.


intersting especially the tuesday comment..didn't know that.
