Mezuzah

Beautiful in a cute way! PDE

Beautiful image of Mezusa, Michael! Thanks to your photo, I learned the purpose of this object. In the Russian tradition, the mezuza analog is a horseshoe, which is hung on / above the front door. Bravo! Sincerely, Tatiana

Thanks so much for the compliment, Tatiana. A mezuzah differs from a horseshoe in one respect (perhaps others?); it contains a small paper scroll on which is inscribed Judaism's central prayer. - - michael

Thanks very much, PDE! - - michael
