Israeli Flag
Product Description
Israeli Flag. The flag of The State of Israel includes two blue stripes on white background with a Shield (Star) of David (in Hebrew: Magen David) in the center. This design was first displayed in Rishon-LeZion in 1885 and was also used at the First Zionist Congress in 1897 (Encyclopedia Judaica, 1971). It was inspired by the tallit (the prayer shawl with blue stripes worn by Jews during prayer) as a symbol. The Star of David is a common symbol of the People of Israel from Biblical times. The flag was adopted officially on October 28, 1948 (25 Tishre, 5709) by the Speaker of the Provisional Council of State.
A Song of Ascents When G-d will return the captivities of Zion, We will be like dreamers. Then our mouths will be filled with laughter And our tongues with songs of joy. Then they will declare among the nations, The Lord has done great things for them! The Lord will do great things for us, And we shall rejoice. Restore or fortunes, O Lord, Like the springs of the Negev. May those who sow in tears reap with songs of joy. Those who will bear carrying the seed-bag weeping, Shall return with songs of joy carrying sheaves. Psalms 126
