Signed, matted giclée Judaica art print featuring text, in Hebrew and English, from the Book of Exodus. A perfect gift for a birth, wedding, graduation, anniversary, or any life cycle event. One of my favorite parts of the weekday and holy day liturgy is this reminder of God's patience: "God, God is gracious and compassionate, patient, abounding in kindness and faithfulness, assuring love for a thousand generations, forgiving iniquity, transgression and sin, and granting pardon." This prayer is repeated three times, each time a little louder and more forcefully, to make sure we really understand that in life we get second chances, and more. I chose a circle-not a perfect one-as a metaphor for this cycle of trying, failing, and, with God's help and love, trying again and again. I was also intrigued by the two yuds used in many prayer books as an abbreviation of God's name. They're the smallest letters, but represent the largest possible idea. They look like quotation marks. Whose voice do they evoke... God's, as transcribed by Moses? Moses's interpretation of what he heard on the mountain? Or maybe our own words interpreting Moses? Maybe the symbol of the unutterable name of God represents our own voices, each day of our lives.
