JPost photo of the day: An ultra-Orthodox Jewish man holds a chicken and performs the Kaparot ritual in the religious neighborhood of Mea She'arim in Jerusalem. 

Kaparot is an ancient Yom Kippur ritual, whereby one transfers one's sins from the past year onto the chicken. The chicken is later slaughtered as a symbolic expression of atonement and then given to charity. The ritual is performed before the Day of Atonement, Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the Jewish year.
