Shalom (שָׁלוֹם) is a Hebrew word meaning peace, Nothing missing, Nothing broken, wellbeing, and complete, and used to mean hello, and goodbye. As it does in English, it can refer to either peace between two entities (especially between man and God or between two countries), or to the well-being, welfare or safety of an individual or a group of individuals. It is also used as a greeting to either say hello or farewell, and is found in many other expressions and names. Its equivalent cognate in Arabic is Salam, Shlomo (ܫܠܡܐ) in Syriac-Assyrian and sälam in Ethiopian Semitic languages from the Hebrew root shin-lamed-mem (ש.ל.ם).

Acrylic on canvas. Just as man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgment, so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many people; and he will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him. Hebrews 9:27,28 / /
Goat. Photo based illustration. “The scapegoat was a goat that was driven off into the wilderness as part of the ceremonies of Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement, in Judaism during the times of the Temple in Jerusalem. The rite is described in Leviticus 16. / The word is more widely used as a metaphor, referring to someone who is blamed for misfortunes, generally as a way of distracting attention from the real causes.” (quoted anonymous)
Today in Melbourne Australia a new Sefer Torah was dedicated to the memory of Minnie & Wolf Brown by their grandchildren. Approx 500 people attended the dedication. / My father and Minnie were first cousins, they came from a village in Poland called Lovitz between Lodz and Warsaw. / The family migrated to Australia in the 1920’s and 30’s and were fortunate to have left before World War Two broke out. / The family has grown and prospered in Australia and is now numerous. / I shot a series of images today both outside and and insde the Synagogue. June 14th 2009 Introduction of a new Sefer Torah into a synagogue is often accompanied by celebratory dancing, singing, and prayer. This is a very ancient celebration; in First Temple times, around 1000 BCE, the Bible comments that the priests, and even ancient Hebrew kings such as David, “danced before the ark” or “danced before the Lord”, both meaning they danced, celebrated and prayed (often in an ecstatic manner) before the Ark of the Covenant, where God’s word was held. It is a tremendous merit to write (or commission writing of) a Sefer Torah, and a significant honor to have a Sefer Torah written in one’s honor or memory.
The term Allāh is most likely derived from a contraction of the Arabic article al- and ʾilāh “deity, god” to al-lāh meaning “the [sole] deity, God” (ho theos monos). Another theory traces the etymology of the word to the Aramaic Alāhā. Cognates of the name “Allāh” exist in other Semitic languages, including Hebrew and Aramaic. The corresponding Aramaic form is אֱלָהָא ˀĔlāhā in Biblical Aramaic and ܐܰܠܳܗܳܐ ˀAlâhâ or ˀĀlōho in Syriac. The term Allah is always used in the singular form; the plural form of the term does not exist in the Arabic language. The contraction of al- and ʾilāh in forming the term Allāh (“the deity” in the masculine form) parallels the contraction of al- and ʾilāha in forming the term al-Lāt (“the deity” in the feminine form)

My depiction of the Feast of Belshazzar. Years ago a student of mine did a mixed media, mostly pastel, version of Rembrandt’s famous painting. I always had fond memories of her work. She was very talented. Here I have focused on the actual writing showing it carved into the wall. I followed Rembrandt’s scheme of left to right and down in Hebrew lettering. When complete, the words read: Mene Mene Tekel Upharsin (weighed in the balances and found wanting—Aramaic). It is a digital work and I used the same hand as Rembrandt—not to plagarise but it just seemed fitting in respect to the great master.
Tzitzit or tzitzis are “fringes” or “tassels” worn by observant Jews on the corners of four-cornered garments, including the tallit (prayer shawl). / In Orthodox Judaism, they are worn only by men while in other religious sectors of Jewish society, they are worn by anyone choosing to observe the mitzvah ( commandments ).

Mixed media on coloured paper. In 2008 (Jewish year 5769) I was commissioned to do an artwork for presentation to the Mayor of Ra’anana, Israel, on the ocassion of Rosh Hashanah (Rosh Hashanah is the Jewish New Year. A ceremonial horn, called a “shofar” is blown, reminding Jews that G-d is king.). / This mixed media drawing of a shofar being blown is one of a number of drawings I did as preliminary pieces for the final commissioned item. Rosh Hashanah is called “Yom T’ruah” (the day of the shofar blast). / The shofar says, “Wake up from your (moral) sleep. You are asleep. Get up from your slumber. You are in a deep sleep. Search for your behaviour. Become the best person you can. Remember G-d, the One Who created you.” (Mishneh Torah, Laws of Repentance). The expert who blows (or “blasts” or “sounds”) the shofar is termed the Tokea (lit. “Blaster”) or Ba’al Tekia (lit. “Master of the Blast”). The shofar is used mainly on Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. It is blown in synagogues to mark the end of the fast at Yom Kippur, and blown at four particular occasions in the prayers on Rosh Hashanah. / The shofar is mentioned frequently in the Hebrew Bible, the Talmud and rabbinic literature. The blast of a shofar emanating from the thick cloud on Mount Sinai made the Israelites tremble in awe (Exodus 19, 20). / In the Temple in Jerusalem, the shofar was sometimes used together with the trumpet. On New-Year’s Day the principal ceremony was conducted with the shofar, which instrument was placed in the centre with a trumpet on either side; it was the horn of a wild goat and straight in shape, being ornamented with gold at the mouthpiece. On fast-days the principal ceremony was conducted with the trumpets in the centre and with a shofar on either side. / On those occasions the shofarot were rams’ horns curved in shape and ornamented with silver breast at the mouthpieces. According to the Talmud, a shofar may be made from the horn of any animal except that of a cow or calf, although a ram is preferable. / A crack or hole in the shofar affecting the sound renders it unfit for ceremonial use. A shofar may not be painted in colours, but it may be carved with artistic designs.

Hebrews 9:12
The menorah, a seven-branched candelabrum used in the Temple, is one of the oldest symbols of the Jewish faith. It has been said that the menorah is a symbol of the nation of Israel and its mission to be “a light unto the nations.” The sages emphasize that light is not a violent force; Israel is to accomplish its mission by setting an example, not by might, nor by power, but by spirit. It was the menorah that served as the primary Jewish symbol from antiquity until the post-Renaissance period, not the “Jewish star”. Happy Hanukkah Card /
