The Merkava
The Merkava From spirituality to a material vessel
The Merkava’s fascinating structure is based on mythical and historical teachings in Jewish spirituality and tradition that represent a form of energetic structure that dates back to Abraham. The artwork on the Merkava Diamond Bible embodies the transformation of this spiritual concept into the two-dimensional Star of David, the quintessential emblem of Israel.
The Star of David is formed of two interlocked triangles fused in a deep holistic bond. One triangle points heavenward, with its base on earth. The other has its base in the heavens and faces the earth. This stunning bible expresses the duality of the Torah as both a guide for life and the key to eternity.
The six diamonds in the bible allude to vav, the sixth letter of the Hebrew alphabet. Vav is one of the letters that form the name of God. Vav’s elongated vertical shape is a bridge that links heaven and earth. The Merkava Diamond Bible represents the unbreakable connection between the Torah and the Jewish people.
“The movement of the rays of light between the diamonds and the Star of David mirrors the spirit of God touching man.” – Noy Ben- Porat, designer of the Merkava Diamond Bible.

I never thought I’d design my own piece of jewelry, but I couldn’t find something to wear to my daughter’s wedding that had already existed. I was referred to Elisheva through friends . After talking with her ,I felt she got my style and vision. I realized this was not going to be just a pair of earrings, this was going to be the start of a good friendship (despite my husbands “objections”) Now I use her for all my jewels, big and small!!
