In this short Elul series of shiurim, we will explore the gemara’s text concerning the need to appease someone we have wronged, before we can deserve the atonement of Yom Kippur.
In this first shiur, we will review, and make sure we understand in a precise way, the atonement that Yom Kippur brings for various kinds of transgressions. Then we will see the gemara’s explanation of verses from Tanach that either support, or need to be reconciled with the limitation of Yom Kippur’s atonement power when it comes to sins between man and man.
