Achrei MosYom Kippurתשפ״ו
A Silent Scream
The essay explores the Midrashic idea that the Kohen Gadol enters the Holy of Holies with the 'merit of Judah' (Zechus Yehuda). By analyzing the blessing given to Judah by Moses, the author explains that Judah's true power was the 'silent scream'—a prayer emanating from total reliance on G-d, which serves as the ultimate spiritual key for Jewish leadership and the Yom Kippur service.
