Judaic Symbols

Judaism is a rich tradition of beliefs and practices that originated from the Hebrew Bible, also known as the Tanakh, and is further explored in texts like the Talmud.

Jewish Symbol: Star of David

The Star of David, also known as the Shield of David, is the most recognized symbol of the Jewish faith. This six-pointed star is believed to be based on the shape or symbol of King David's shield.

Although now synonymous with Judaism, the Star of David became a popular emblem of the faith only in the past 200 years.

Jewish Symbol: Menorah

The Menorah is the oldest symbol in Judaism.

This seven-branched candelabrum has been a significant religious symbol since ancient times.
