Yom Kippur: A Question
Did Yom Kippur start with the Tabernacle or only after Solomon's Temple was built?

Tradition holds with the Tabernacle, in fact I found this.
"The first observance of Yom Kippur happened after Moses came down Mount Sinai the second time after breaking the original tablet of The Ten Commandments. The Israelites were engaged in idol worship of a golden calf which caused a separation between them and God. In order to bridge the gap, they needed to fast, pray, and repent for God to forgive their transgressions."
