| Sep 16, 2018 at 13:41 | comment | added | Tamir Evan | Mishneh Torah Hilkhot Tefilah 1:7: "Similarly, they instituted a prayer after the Minchah Prayer [to be recited] close to sunset on fast days only, its purpose being to increase supplication and pleading because of the fast. This is called the Ne'ilah prayer, as if to say that the gates of Heaven are closed behind the sun, which becomes hidden, since it is recited only close to [the time of] sunset". | |
