When Does Yom Kippur End?
From the "Metropolitan Diary" in the NY Times,
Oct 22 1997
The season of the Jewish holidays reminded Loise Young of a visit to
Zabar's on Yom Kippur several years ago. At 2 PM, the place was, she
said, "a madhouse" of carts and baskets filled to overflowing with
special holiday treats. As she approached the cashier, she spoke to
the woman in line in front of her.
Ms. Young: "Gosh, I thought Zabar's wouldn't be so crowded at this
time because of the Jewish holiday"
Woman: "Me too, I thought Jewish people were supposed to be praying
in temple until sundown."
Nearby third woman pushing heavily laden cart: "It's sundown in
Jerusalem already."
