On Rosh Hashanah, it is customary to eat a pomegranate and say, “May our merits increase like the seeds of a pomegranate.” To this day, the pomegranate remains one of the most beloved motifs in Jewish art.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3 style=\"text-align: right;\"\u003eAbout Lighting Shabbat Candles\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp style=\"text-align: right;\"\u003eLighting Shabbat candles is one of the oldest and most beloved Jewish commandments. It is usually the woman of the household who lights them before Shabbat begins. Before lighting, the blessing is recited: “Blessed are You, Lord our God, King of the universe, who has sanctified us with His commandments and commanded us to kindle the Shabbat light.” After the blessing, many women cover their eyes and offer a personal prayer for their family, including the request, “May I merit to raise children and grandchildren who are wise and understanding.” The candles symbolize “peace in the home” and the light and joy of Shabbat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3 style=\"text-align: right;\"\u003eAbout the Artist Dorit Klein\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp style=\"text-align: right;\"\u003eDorit Klein is an Israeli Judaica artist, born in Israel into a long-established Jerusalem family. Encouraged by her mother, she began painting at a very young age and worked in commercial graphic design for many years, until her love of Jewish art became her primary pursuit.
