Yom Kippur Morning

The Jewish Weekly | December 10, 2025

One washes his hands in the morning only up to the knuckles. One should not derive enjoyment from washing his hands.

One wipes his eyes with the towel moistened by his hands. One who washes the flakes out of his eyes every morning may do so on Yom Kippur morning as well.

After getting dressed, one washes his hands again – with a Brachah – only up to the knuckles.

The Brachah of Sheasa Li Kol Tzorki is omitted according to the Gr=a until Motzei Yom Kippur and according to the Ba’al Hatanya until the following morning.
