Why does Yom Kippur come AFTER Rosh Shashonnah
I have always wondered why Yom Kippur comes after Rosh Shashonnah, the New Year.
It would seem that the day-of-atonement should come first as the old year goes out and the new year comes in totally atoned (for lack of a better word).
I know it won't change but I was curious about the sequencing.
