Description

We all know that "On Rosh Hashanah it is written and on Yom Kippur it is sealed" but what exactly does that mean? Why are we judged on these days? Is it true that if we are wicked we will - G-d forbid - die in the coming year? This topic has exercised the greatest minds of Judaism for over two thousand years. And the end result of these discussions is a fascinating - and beautiful - set of insights into human destiny, the value of a single life and much more.
