Nederlands: Mezoeza Ida Kleiterp, 9555
Mezzuza by Ida Kleiterp This mezzuza was donated by sculptor Ida Kleiterp (1948) to the Children's Museum. The three Hebrew letters form the word 'Sjadai' (or Shaddai), one of the Judaic names of God. While creating Ida realized that the mezzuza is just like a tool - to keep you on the right path. If you touch the mezzuza with your hand, you feel both the rough and the smooth surface of the stone. It symbolizes the hard and soft side of life. The mezzuza is a small container mounted to the doorpost at the entrance to most rooms in which Jews dwell. You will find it on the upper third of the right hand doorpost as you enter. It is mounted at an angle, with the top toward the inside. The word mezzuzah literally means "doorpost", but it is most commonly used to refer to the container. Many Jews follow the custom of kissing the mezzuza when they enter or leave. This is done by touching your fingertips first to the mezzuza and then to your lips. |
