Publisher Description
The urge to create sacred spaces is so deep in our psyche that, even when there is no formalized intent to make an altar, we often create them subconsciously by the way we gather our photos on a piano, or by the way that we arrange objects with care on a desk or around our computer. This practice of deliberately grouping objects together may be a descendant of the tradition of the home altar. The creation of an altar has a substantial value. It can fill a void in the human psyche that yearns for the wondrous and the mysterious. The Jewish Altar reinstates some of the customs from the past that were so sustaining and fulfilling, such as the purposeful creation of an altar for your prayers. The Jewish Altar welcomes the mystical and spiritual experiences into our lives, featuring the following symbols: Table/Altar for prayer Candles - the light signifies the stability and clarity of patience, the beauty which dispels all ignorance Candle holders The Menorah - One of the oldest symbols of the Jewish faith, a seven-branched candelabrum. It has been said that the menorah is a symbol of the nation of Israel and our mission to be "a light unto the nations." The sages emphasize that light is not a violent force. The Star of David symbol - one of the most recognized symbols in history. While most people only associate it with Judaism, it also has meaning for other cultures and peoples. In a sense, it shines on us all. It could be thought of as an earthly symbol of God s heavenly stars. The Torah - Judaism s most important text. It is composed of the Five Books of Moses and also contains the 613 commandments (mitzvot) and the Ten Commandments. The word Torah means to teach. Tefillins - small black leather boxes containing scrolls of parchment inscribed with verses from the Torah, which are worn by observant Jews during weekday morning prayers. Mezuzahs - pieces of parchment (often contained in a decorative case) inscribed with specified Hebrew verses from the Torah Matzah - unleavened traditional bread Kiddush cups - To honor the mitzvah of reciting kiddush, a silver goblet is often used, although any cup can suffice and more. The Jewish Altar features all you need to start your prayers. Peace to you all!
