A significant archaeological discovery in Israel unveiled a clay jar featuring an early Christian seal that includes the Menorah, Star of David, and Fish. This ancient symbol, known as the Early Christian Sign, is embroidered on all four corners of the shawl. It consists of:
- 7 Candle Holder at the top
- Star of David in the middle
- Fish at the bottom, which served as a symbol of identification for Christians during the Roman occupation
The central Hebrew prayer, known as the Atara, translates to:
“Blessed are you, O Lord King of the Universe, who has fulfilled all of the law through Jesus the Messiah and covered us with His Righteousness.”
The pronunciation of this prayer in Hebrew is:
BARUCH ATAH ADONAI ELOHENU MELECH HA’OLAM ASHER MILLA ET KOL HATORAH BIYASHU’ HAMASHIAH IKISSA ET KULANU VETSEDKATO
Jesus wore a prayer shawl when in the Temple, as Jewish tradition commands wearing a four-fringed garment. This practice serves as a reminder of God’s law. The fringes, tied in a specific way, symbolize the five books of Moses with five knots, representing God’s Name (YHWH) and His law.
For Christians, the shawl also evokes the story of the woman who touched the fringes of Jesus’s garment, symbolizing her faith and connection to God’s Word.
This exquisite prayer shawl serves as an inspirational tool in your prayer life. It comes with an explanatory note, making it a meaningful spiritual gift for friends or loved ones.
