Tonight concludes Yom Kippur, the holiest day of the year for Jews when we reflect on the past year and ask forgiveness for our mistakes. For those I hurt this year, I ask forgiveness and I will try to be better. For the ways my work was used to divide people rather than bring us together, I ask forgiveness and I will work to do better. May we all be better in the year ahead, and may you all be inscribed in the book of life.

If only jews weren't at the heart of evil and destruction in this world the maybe we could take your deceiving message seriously and forgive your kind. But if you truly want forgiveness. Give it all up to Jesus Christ for dieing on the cross for all our sins.

Thank you for explaining that. I never realized what Yom Kippur meant. I like it when people explain different cultural holidays so that the rest of us understand.

I have asked forgiveness for anger. I ask for forgiveness also for those I have hurt especially when I don't even know I have hurt them with my words. I ask forgiveness of my family whom sometimes I have not been the most pleasant in conversations. …

Mark, apologies to Jews or any other is not so assenssial than forgiveness to the innocent Palestinian, who are killing mercilessly. It would be genuine apologies to mankind and prophet. Mosses would be forgiven you.

Mark, one more, Yahweh has blessed America that accepted the Jews via you_ Facebook, A. Einstein_Atomic /nuclear bomb etc but those that hate the Jews shall be hated and cursed.

No. You don't get a pass by invoking Yom Kippur and asking for forgiveness. The damage done requires more than a plea for forgiveness and a vague promise to do better. FB's late acknowledgement of its role in the election is disengenuous. More transpar…

I'm not Jew but one of my all time favorite movies that is The Schindler's List talks about Yom Kippur and is a moving story. I'm sure you don't mean that but your work is going to serve as a Gestapo book for ICE to collect info on immigrants.

I know Yom Kippur as for the Jews and they celebrate it, but I just want you guys to know that Jesus already paid for all your past present and future sins on that cross. Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you shall be saved Romans 10:13
