Adat Hatikvah

Come Before Him

Sep 23, 2026    Rabbi Jacob Rosenberg PhD

Yom Kippur confronts us with a profound question: How can we come before a holy God? From the Day of Atonement in Leviticus 16, through the call to repentance, to the access opened through Yeshua, Scripture reveals a God who not only forgives His people but invites them to draw near. The journey of Yom Kippur moves us from repentance to atonement, to access, and ultimately into the presence of God. Repentance is not the destination. God is.
