Mezuzahs ~ Made in Israel The Mezuzah signifies the sanctity and blessing of the home. It is a portion of Holy Torah (The Old Testament) inscribed in the same manner. It is an "original" sanctified document in accord with laws and precepts that dare not be compromised. ~ On this sacred scroll of parchment are inscribed two passages from the book of Deuteronomy. It is customary upon entering or leaving a residence to touch the mezuzah. This reverence acknowledges the belief in the declaration of faith which expresses the unity of God, the duty of loving and serving Him with our whole being and our obligation to observe the Mitzvoth (Deeds) in and out of the home. Because it presents basic principles of faith the Mezuzah is our responsibility to visitors and us.
* All Mezuzahs come boxed with a "copy" of the Scroll and 'Somthin' About the Mezuzah.
The Mezuzah sanctifies and protects the home, as well as fulfills the saying of the Psalmist: "God will guard your going and coming from now and for all time."
"And you shall inscribe these words upon the doorposts of your house and upon your gates." “If you fully obey the Lord your God and carefully follow all His commands… all these blessings will come upon you. You will be blessed in the city and in the country. The fruit of your womb (that’s your family!) will be blessed, and the crops of your land and the young of your livestock…Your basket and your kneading trough will be blessed. You will be blessed when you come in and blessed when you go out. The Lord will grant that the enemies who rise up against you will be defeated before you.” (Deuteronomy 28)
*Roll the enclosed "Scroll" face up and insert into the Mezuzah Case. Use 2 nails (or glue) placed firmly to the right doorpost and Recite the Hebrew Blessings: * "Boruch Attah A-donai E-lohainu Melech ha-olam, asher kiddishanoo bimitzvotav vitzivanoo likvo-ah Mezuzah".
"Blessed are You, Adonai our God, Ruler of the universe, Who sanctifies us with holy commandments and commands us to fix a mezuzah."
