A traditional image of the High Holidays is the Book of Life and Book of Death standing open: "On Rosh Hashanah it is written, and on Yom Kippur it is sealed: who will live and who will die; who will die at their predestined time and who before their time."

This year, Yom Kippur falls on the deadline for the Senate to pass the Graham-Cassidy bill, which would drastically cut health care spending, throw millions off their insurance, and remove pre-existing condition protections.

It just feels a bit too on the nose, you know?
