Image description

An Ultra-Orthodox Jew swings a white rooster over the head of his father as the elder man recites a prayer September 16 in the Mea Shearim neighbourhood as they perform the traditional "kaparot" ceremony prior to Judaism's holiest day of Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement, which begins this coming Sunday evening at sundown. The ritual is performed in order to transfer one's sins accumulated during the past year into the bird which is then ritually slaughtered and eaten shortly before the start of the holy day. Israel comes to a total close on Yom Kippur and Jews observe a fast for a 24 hour period. JWH/ME
