Enclosed with each Sentimental Expressions item is a card with an inspirational message. For this item, the message reads:br/." The simple and elegant Star of David (Magen David) is the primary emblem worn as a pendant by many Jews to express their faith. The Jew's realization that hope rests only in trust in God, is reflected in the Star of David design representing God's rule over the universe in all six directions: north, south, east, west, up and down. It is the premier religious jewelry symbol of Judiac faithful. The Star of David is called the Shield of David in Hebrew. It is named after King David of ancient Israel; sometimes it is called the Seal of Solomon after his son, King Solomon. It is a generally recognized symbol of Judaism and Jewish identity and is also known colloquially as the Jewish Star. This usage began in the Middle Ages, alongside the more ancient symbol of the menorah. With the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948, the Star of David on the Flag of Israel has also become a symbol of Israel. In the Torah the Israelites are commanded to dye one of the threads of their tallit (prayer shawl) with tekhelet; when they look at this dye they will think of the blue sky, and of the God above them in Heaven. Tekhelet corresponds to the color of the divine revelation. Blue in Judaism has thus had an important significance throughout the history of Jewish culture up to the present.".
