1.5” lazer-cut wood Star of David.
The Star of David is a symbol commonly associated with Judaism and the Jewish People. In Hebrew, it is called Magen David(“Shield of David”). A six-pointed star, the Star of David is composed of two overlaid equilateral triangles, one pointing up and the other pointing down.
The Zohar (3:73a) states, “There are three knots connecting [three entities] one to another: the Holy One, blessed be He; Torah; and Israel.” The Jewish soul connects to its Creator through the study and observance of Torah. The triangle represents the connection between these three entities.
Kabbalah teaches that G‑d created the world with seven spiritual building blocks—His seven “emotional” attributes. Accordingly, the entire creation is a reflection of these seven foundational attributes.
They are: chesed (kindness), gevurah(severity), tiferet (harmony), netzach(perseverance), hod (splendor), yesod(foundation) and malchut (royalty).
