Mezuzah Silver Brass Wood Stone
Mezuzah: (Lit. “doorpost”): A small parchment scroll upon which the Hebrew words of the Shema are handwritten by a scribe. Mezuzah scrolls are rolled up and affixed to the doorposts of Jewish homes, designating the home as Jewish. It also is reminding those who live there of their connection to G‑d and their heritage. The decorative case containing the mezuzah scroll is just that: a mere container. What’s important is the scroll, upon which the first two sections of the Shema are handwritten. It begins with the eternal words “Hear o Israel, the L‑rd is our G‑d, the L‑rd is One.” . These selections both contain G‑d’s instruction to affix the mezuzah: “You shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates.”
You should hang a mezuzah on just about every doorway that belongs to you. Notable exceptions are doors leading to bathrooms and small closets. The mezuzah should be hung on the right side of the door, on the top third of the doorway. The Sephardi Jews have a tradition that the mezuzah should be right-side up.
The mezuzah should be hung on the right side of the door, on the top third of the doorway. The Ashkenazi Jews have a tradition that the mezuzah should be right-side up, and slanted so that the top of the mezuzah faces inwards towards the room.
Here is the blessing once you place the Mezuzah on the entrance frame:
- בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה יי אֱלֹהֵינוּ מֶלֶךְ הָעוֹלָם, אֲשֶׁר קִדְּשַׁנוּ בְּמִצְוֹתָיו וְצִוָּנוּ לִקְבּוֹעַ מְזוּזָה
- Blessed are You, Lord our God, King of the Universe, Who sanctified us with His Mitzvoth, and commanded us to affix a mezuzah.
