Yoma 86 - July 6, 26 Tamuz

Does repentance atone even for negative commandments or does one need to atone and also wait for Yom Kippur? What are the differences in the levels of atonement addressed by Rabbi Yishmael? What is considered a desecration of the name of God that only death atones for? What are the different virtues of repentance? Should one reveal his sins in public or keep silent about them? On what does it depend? How can one do true repentance? If one sinned and repeated one’s sin several times, at what point is one’s repentance no longer accepted? If one confessed one’s sins one year, is one obligated to confess again the following year? If the answer is no, is one allowed to if one wishes to do so? Should one specify exactly the sin one committed?
