Rabbi Schulweis declared that “Rosh Hashanah is not Yom Kippur…. Rosh Hashanah is the celebration of strength. Yom Kippur is the commemoration of weakness. Rosh Hashanah is the celebration of independence. Yom Kippur is the commemoration of dependence. If we split them, then we have a half-truth. And there is nothing more deceitful than a half-truth.”
