The Parting of the Red Sea Mezuzah

$1,410

Various reasons and explanations have been suggested for the practice of affixing the Mezuzah. “And Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and God caused the sea to go back by a strong east wind all the night, and made the sea dry land, and the waters were divided. And the children of Israel went into the midst of the sea upon the dry ground: and the waters were a wall unto them on their right hand, and on their left” (Exodus 14:21-22). The parting of the red sea Mezuzah is testimony to this miraculous event.

As it says in “And thou shalt write them upon the door-posts of thy house, and upon thy gates…. then beware lest thou forget the L-RD, who brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage” (Deuteronomy 6:9) The artist created a unique mezuzah. The mezuzah is composed of two waves cradling a clear tube with the holy parchment. A cap in the form of a splash of waves cover complete he composition.

Each work is signed and numbered by the Artist 2015, Sterling Silver.

Michael was born in the United States in 1967 and immigrated to Israel with his family shortly before the 1973 Yom Kippur war. It soon became evident that he possessed manual dexterity and artistic talent.

In addition to yeshiva studies, Michael participated in a crafts-development program, in the Israel Museum, Jerusalem and at Bar Ilan University.

Always keeping in mind the Bauhaus principle, "form follows function", Michael creates art that is up-to-date incorporating the latest technology and design innovations.

The vibrancy of his work and the striking simplicity of his designs place him on the cutting edge of contemporary design and the detailed craftsmanship on the traditional side of Jewish design.

Michael also designs building interiors, Arks, custom made washing stations and memorials that embody the feeling and warmth of his personal Jewish experience. In his designs, Michael creates not only beautiful but functional and meaningful works of art.

Today Michael resides in the Judean Hills outside of Jerusalem, with his wife and children.
