As we approach Yom Kippur, how do traditional Jews expect to get atonement without blood sacrifices?

It's time for the line of fire with your host, Biblical scholar and cultural commentator Dr. Michael Brown, your voice for moral sanity and spiritual clarity.

Call 86634 Truth to get on the line of fire. And now, here's your host, Dr. Michael Brown.

Thanks so much for joining us here on the line of fire. Michael Brown, thrilled to be back live in our

home studio and still so much tragic suffering as a result of Hurricane Helene right here in North Carolina. My wife

Nancy's been out with our daughter, Meg, several days already, volunteering, relief help.

People just destitute, I mean, no way to get their roads just out, people living in isolated

areas and so much work to be done now Florida hit a fresh with

hurricane so for those that are in the throes of pain and struggle right now

our hearts go out to you we're praying for you and many are on the ground

doing what they can to help in practical ways it is thoroughly Thursday. If you have a Jewish-related call,

here's the number, 86634-truth. 866-348-7-884. If it's Jewish-related, great. Love to take your call

a little later in the broadcast. And we

are just days away from Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement, the holiest day on the Jewish calendar,

a time of repentance, soul-searching. In fact, right now, traditional Jews around the world

are in the midst of deep soul searching.

It's called Yamim No Raim, the days of awe, 10 days from Rochechernal, or the sounding of the trumpet in the Bible, until Yom Kippur.

Even secular Jews sometimes get more religious.

Many will fast on Yom Kippur, even though they're not religious the rest of the year.

So it's a great time for us to pray for God's mercy to be poured out on the Jewish people worldwide,

to reveal his love through Yeshua, Jesus, the Messiah, and the full and complete atonement that comes

through his blood as he takes our place.
