Summary/Abstract: The prayer of repentance for public sins - present in several Old Testament texts - raises a number of questions about the nature of sin, how it can be assumed by the people and passed on to their descendants, and ultimately how Jewish theology perceived the need for collective repentance. In this article, I will examine some examples of such manifestations, especially from the post-exilic period, which highlight the communitarian character of God's people and the fact that correction, salvation is only achieved together with those around you.Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)
