Traditional practices observed during the Yom Kippur festival in Judaism center on fasting, prayer, and repentance. This Day of Atonement is considered the holiest day in the Jewish calendar. Observers refrain from food and drink for 25 hours, reflecting on their actions and seeking forgiveness. Special synagogue services include the recitation of the Vidui, a confessional prayer, and the Neilah service at the end of the day. These practices foster communal and spiritual reflection, emphasizing the importance of atonement and renewal within the Jewish faith.
