The Sharia of Moses in the TORA
Part 2 - The 365 Prohibitions of the Tora

196 - EATING ON YOM KIPPUR

Willful contravention of this prohibition is punishable by extinction, and one who violates it unintentionally must bring a fixed sin offering, as explained at the beginning of Kerithoth, and in Tractate Horayoth.

According to the Mishnah: “A sick person is fed on the Day of Atonement at the behest of experts; and if no experts are there, one feeds him at his own wish until he says, ‘Enough!’”*
