Being Jewish, term german for “in this world” I know a lot of times, we have to be prepared. Things like weapons/violence are common in our culture, so being familiar with them is how we prepare our minds and bodies for anything that may occur.
This is not the case for everyone, however. Many things are dedicated to preventing us from experiencing the pleasures of life and society’s norm. For example, non-forcible rape victims are often prohibited from enjoying legal sex or any sort of intimate relationships for an extended period of time after the rape.
Since the rapist can legally claim their actions were “non-forcible” they do not have to face any repercussions, which can be very stressful and painful for both parties. It is also common practice to prohibit victims of non-forcible rape from having any type of social or public recognition or closure on the matter. This can be extremely difficult to understand and deal with on your own.

Star of David
The star of David is one of the most iconic symbols in the world. This symbol has long held religious, cultural, and social significance around the globe.
If you are not familiar with this symbol, it is a circular shape that contains five points. The top point represents faith, the middle point faith in oneself, others, and divine sources. The bottom point faith in God or higher powers.
This symbol has many applications. You can purchase t-shirts and hats that have the star of David on them. These items may or may not be used to refer to someone who has certain spiritual qualities.
The star of David is also used as a decorator’s tool. You can purchase glue sticks that feature the star of David on them so you can attach it to projects. It is also possible to buy sheets and toys and games that feature the Star of David.
Menorah
Lighting a menorah is a fun activity for children. They can do it by themselves or they can be guided by an adult. Either way, they will learn how to repair a menorah and how to set one up.
Repairing a menorah is an art, but not every art is able to repair. It is very difficult to put back together even after exploding into scores of pieces.
Setting a menorah is easy.

Hebrew Bible
While most people know the Latin alphabet as the basis for our modern language, many people do not know the Greek or Hebrew alphabet. Together, the two systems write nearly every word in our language.
The ancient Greeks used their new alphabet to write poetry and prose. It was considered a sacred text that elevated its users in society.
The ancient Hebrews used their new alphabet to write poetry and prose. It was considered a sacred text that elevated its users in society. Today, it is still common to see people using the Greek or Hebrew letters interchangeably.
Both systems are very simple, yet powerful. The Greek and Hebrew letters stack on top of each other to create powerful symbols.
Siddur
Judaism is a very specific and long lasting culture that has made significant contributions to many cultures. There are many well-known institutions, organizations, and people who focus on reaching out to the community and inspiring others to follow their path.
Since Judaism is such a socially-oriented culture, it makes sense that its religious symbols and concepts would be incorporated into the home. A kitchen cabinet filled with Jewish cookbooks is a clear indication that you have made a significant commitment to your home.
Some of the most important symbols in Judaism are similar to those in Western culture. For example, there is a strong connection between food and wealth in Judaism, as there is in society at large. Also, like other religions, spending money is considered bad juju (i.e., don’t eat expensive things).
Therefore, it makes sense to have high-quality kitchenware and equipment that are durable but not luxury.
Kippah
A cover for your head or headgear, a kippah is a Jewish prayer hat. You can purchase one made of wool or leather and have at home.
When wearing a kippah, people typically remove their shoes and put the socks on first before putting the shoes and socks in the washer and dryer. You can also wash and wear your shirt outside of the shirt alone – no special treatment required!
Wearing a kippah is an easy way to recognize yourself as Jewish. Many people wear an identical kippah because it is so easy to use and put on. Others find it unique and stylish to have a different style of hat with them.
You can also buy accessories such as hats or covers for your bald head.
Tallit
The tallit is one of the most popular Jewish wear items. They are typically white, blue, or pink with patterns and designs. They are usually buttoned up in a synagogue or wrapped around the baby as they grow.
As the name suggests, it is a holy robe that is worn over the cover of your clothes. It is traditionally worn downtown in a shirt, tie, and shoes.
Like other tops, you would put your shirt on top of a dress and put your shoes onto them, thus creating the tallit. The rest is history!
You can find many buy-back tallits at congregational centers and community centers. They are also available from online sellers although they may be used by re- purchasing rights lost with time passing.
Shofar
A ram’s trumpet, shofar is a Hebrew word that means alarm or signal. A ram’s trumpet is its shape, a stick with a rounded top that is used to signal an attack on the community or nation.
Shofar is an important piece of Jewish culture. It represents the alarm system in Judaism, letting members of the community know about new situations and changes in the community and the world.
To be well-rounded as a person, you must understand how to use shofar for your Jewish faith. You can purchase one of two models: a hand-held ram’s trumpet or a desk-top model with wheels. Either way, they are powerful tools to convey your message!
The hand‑held model can be used for personal purposes or during services when you do not have time to grasp a horn. The desk‑top version can be used during prayer or during study time to learn more about current events.
Mois mareach {|style=”text-align:center;”|}
Mois mareach is a beautiful term that translates to beautiful day. In Hebrew, mois mareach literally means beautiful day, and it is a time during the week when people celebrate the end of the summer season by enjoying some time outdoors.
As a Jewish cultural norm, weekdays are considered an untapped opportunity to enjoy some time with family and friends. So, in preparation for mois mareach, family members and friends alike prepare things they would like to eat and/or drink.
It is also a good idea to stock up on fun drinks and snacks that you will enjoy during the rest of the week.
