Kippur
The Day of Atonement or Yom Kippur was a ceremony initiated by God Himself.  It began immediately after the death of Nadab and Abihu, the two sons of Aaron that attempted to improve on God’s instructions regarding the temple offerings and decided to add their own unauthorized fire offering to the Lord.  The Lord was not pleased with the “strange fire” the two sons of Aaron presumptuously offered in His presence.  Their lives were taken and a great lesson regarding the Holiness of God was temporarily learned.


SHALOM!
