The Message of the Mezuzah! 

This Earth of ours is a Satanic place! Notice:

We know that we are of God, and the whole world lieth in wickedness. (1 John 5:19 KJV)

This one passage from scripture gives us the startling secret that this entire planet is owned and controlled by something that is evil. What could that be?

And the devil, taking him up into an high mountain, shewed unto him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time. And the devil said unto him, All this power will I give thee, and the glory of them: for that is delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will I give it. If thou therefore wilt worship me, all shall be thine. And Jesus answered and said unto him, Get thee behind me, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the LORD thy God, and Him only shalt thou serve. (Luke 4: 5-8, ibid.)

From Luke Chapter 4, it is crystal clear that this planet is the legal property of the devil. That is absolute, no argument, unquestioned ownership. Regardless of your personal understanding of what that being titled “the devil” actually is, it is clear that an immensely powerful being, demonstrating supernatural abilities, claims ownership of this planet and that the Messiah, in his human form, did not dispute that fact.

Next to striving for salvation, protecting your home should be one of the first things you do. So be sure to clean your home of all ungodly objects and anything that gives Satan entrance to your home, such “Welcome” mats, demonic objects and pictures, etc.

There is a reason that YEHOVAH God, creator of all things, told those of us of Israel, in Deuteronomy 6:9, to put HIS word on our home. It is because nothing gets by HIM. No host of heaven. No fallen angel. No demon. No dark power can defeat HIM. So, as a believer, it is in our best interest to take advantage of every weapon that YEHOVAH God provides for us to defeat the enemy. The mezuzah is one of those weapons.

Typical Jewish Mezuzah

Notice what Wikipedia has to say about the mezuzah:

Mezuzah Hebrew: מְזוּזָה‬ "doorpost"; plural: מְזוּזוֹת‬ mezuzot) comprises a piece of parchment called a klaf contained in a decorative case and inscribed with specific Hebrew verses from the Torah (Deuteronomy 6:4-9 and 11:13-21). These verses consist of the Jewish prayer Shema Yisrael, beginning with the phrase: "Hear, O Israel, the LORD (is) our God, the LORD is One". In mainstream Rabbinic Judaism, a mezuzah is affixed to the doorpost of Jewish homes to fulfill the mitzvah (Biblical commandment) to "write the words of God on the gates and doorposts of your house" (Deuteronomy 6:9). Some interpret Jewish law to require a mezuzah in every doorway in the home except bathrooms (which is not a living space), laundry rooms and closets, if they are too small to qualify as rooms. The klaf parchment is prepared by a qualified scribe ("sofer stam") who has undergone training, both in studying the relevant religious laws, and in the more practical parts i.e. carving the quill and practicing writing. The verses are written in black indelible ink with a special quill pen made either from a feather or, in what are now rare cases, a reed. The parchment is then rolled up and placed inside the case.

According to Toby Janicki of First Fruits of Zion:

In these passages, the greater context includes all of the commandments as well as the faithfulness to teach and observe them. The word for "doorposts" in these passages is the word mezuzot, which in the singular form is Mezuzah. This word is first used in Exodus 12:7 in connection with the doorposts on which the blood was applied when the children of Israel fled from Egypt during the exodus.

From the earliest times, this commandment was observed by the Jewish [Israelite] people in both the literal sense and with the understanding that the Torah was to be taught in all of Israel's homes and cities. (Mezuzah, First Fruits of Zion, Marshfield, MO, 2013, p. 5.)

Adds Biblical scholar Jeffery Tigay, "It is certain that Deuteronomy 6:9 means literally to ordain the writing of God's instructions on the doorposts and city gates" (The JPS Torah Commentary: Deuteronomy, Jewish Publication Society, New York, NY, 1996, p. 443) The evidence, therefore, indicates that the words of the Torah were originally written on the doorposts and gates.

There is, in fact, a lot of evidence for mezuzah-like customs among the non-Israelite peoples of the ancient Near east. We find, for example, an astracon (piece of broken pottery or stone used as a notepad) dating to the 6th-century B.C. from the ancient city of Lachish containing the words, "I have written on the door according to all that my lord has sent unto me." ("I Have Written on the Door (Lachish Letter IV)," Journal of the American Oriental Society 56 no. 4, Dec. 1936, pp. 491-493) Also found, dating back to the same period, is a Phoenician plaque which is believed to also have been placed on the doorpost of a house for religious purposes. Both of these discoveries indicate that it quite probable, based on the cultural understandings of the time, that the Biblical commandment to place words "on the doorpost of your house upon your gates" was meant literally.

Probably the earliest written reference to the practice is found in the Letter of Aristeas from the 2nd-century B.C.:

And in like manner He has ordered us to put the divine oracles upon our gates and doors as a remembrance of God. (Letter of Aristeas, p. 158-159.)

The Israelites were not the only ones to apply the commandment literally -- the Samaritans also did. They inscribed Deuteronomy 6:4-9 (and sometimes other texts such as the Ten Commandments and the priestly blessing) on stone and attached them to, or place them near, their doorposts.

Then, explains Janicki, a change took place:

Sometime during the Second Temple period, this practice of writing the commandments on the doorposts changed for an unknown reason. The word "mezuzah" no longer applied to the actual doorpost but was transferred to the parchment on which the verses were written. This parchment was rolled up and placed either in a case or inside a notch in the doorpost. (Mezuzah, Toby Janicki, First Fruits of Zion, p. 6)

There is evidence that the early New Testament Ecclesia (Church) continued to practice the commandment of Deuteronomy 6:9 along with the rest of Judaism. We find reference to this in the works of Philip Alexander, a scholar in early Judaism. He states in "Jewish Believers in Early Rabbinic Literature (2nd to 5th centuries)" that:

The threat of paganism is open and "honest" [i.e., "the temple of idolatry]; Christianity's threat is concealed behind the facade of Jewishness [i.e., "their house"]. Outwardly Christian houses display the sign of Judaism (the mezuzah).

This means that early Christian Israelites were largely indistinguishable from the rest of Judaism because they had mezuzot on their doors in the traditional manner.

Here let it be noted that the mezuzah is NOT a talisman, spell or occult object. The mezuzah is a protective device in that it is dependant upon your faith and personal relationship with YEHOVAH God as an Israelite -- like the blood above the doorway in Exodus 12:7, 13. Will a mezuzah act as protection for an Israelite unbeliever? Maybe. I cannot say. I only know what we have been told. I do feel that if an unbeliever had enough faith to use a mezuzah, that YEHOVAH God is dealing with him in some way.

Therefore, the mezuzah is a well-recognized, visible sign of an Israelite home or place of business that contains a powerful message. Just as our bodies are the outer shell that houses the true essence of who we are, these sometimes elaborately decorated containers protect the holiness of YEHOVAH’s Word as well as providing YEHOVAH's protection to His obedient people Israel.

The presence of a mezuzah on the doorposts of a house is a testimony that this is the dwelling place of YEHOVAH's people Israel who love and honor YEHOVAH God and are dedicated to His service. As Joshua boldly declared, in preparation for leading the children of Israel into the Promised Land, “As for me and my household we will serve the LORD.” (Joshua 24:15) 

What exactly was the spiritual significance of the mezuzah for the ancient Israelites and what is it for us still today?  Let’s take a look.

What’s Inside the Mezuzah?

Inside each mezuzah of Jewish origin is a rectangular piece of parchment called a klaf, which is made from a specially prepared skin of a Biblically clean (kosher) animal. The klaf (skin) is scribed with Hebrew lettering from key scriptures found in the Word of YEHOVAH God -- namely Deuteronomy 6:4-9 and Deuteronomy 11:13-21. The following verses contain the Shema and the commandment regarding the mezuzah:

 Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is one! You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your might. And these words which I command you today shall be in your heart; you shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up....You shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates. (Deuteronomy 6:4-7, 9, NKJV)

You shall teach them [YEHOVAH's Commandments] to your children, speaking of them when you sit in your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up. And you shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates.... (Deuteronomy 11:19-20, ibid.)

The tiny scroll is then rolled up with the Scripture facing inward and placed in the container.

Typical Klaf That Comes in the Mezuzah

Often, the container displays the Hebrew letter shin on the outside, which stands for Shaddai (a name of YEHOVAH God often translated as "Almighty"). The three Hebrew letters that make up the name Shaddai -- shin (SH) dalet (D) and yud (Y) -- are often interpreted as an acronym standing for Shomer Daltot Yisrael ("Keeper of the Doors of Israel"). So this also serves as a reminder that YEHOVAH God and His angels guard the doors of His faithful Israelite children.

Note that the mezuzah is not the fancy case that many people buy. The mezuzah is the small scroll or paper upon which YEHOVAH’s word is written inside the case. The case is to protect the paper from the weather. You do NOT need the case. You only need the scroll. 

Some of the scrolls to be found on the Internet are incomplete or damaged on purpose to prevent them being “desecrated,” so be aware if you intend to buy one.

The Meaning of Mezuzah

The Hebrew word mezuzah simply means doorpost; however, the doorpost of a house can be a sign of what a particular house epitomizes. In Biblical times, the doorpost of a house, due to its visibility to the outside world, represented the family’s values and was a place to show identity. The doorpost has such significance that YEHOVAH God commanded the blood of the first Passover Lamb to be applied to the mezuzah (doorpost) of each Israelite household -- notice!

Then Moshe (Moses) called for all the leaders of Israel and said, "Select and take lambs for your families, and slaughter the Pesach (Passover) lamb. Take a bunch of hyssop leaves and dip it in the blood which is in the basin, and smear it on the two sides and top of the door-frame. Then, none of you is to go out the door of his house until morning." (Exodus 12:21-22)

The angel of destruction would see the blood on the doorpost and “pass over” that home, instead of destroying it.

For Adonai (the LORD) will pass through to kill the Egyptians; but when He sees the blood on the top and on the two sides, Adonai will pass over the door and will not allow the Slaughterer to enter your houses and kill you. (Exodus 12:23)

The blood of the lamb (Yeshua the Messiah) on the doorposts of our heart saves us from the wrath of YEHOVAH God.  By placing a mezuzah on the doorpost of our home, it gives witness to YEHOVAH God, to the world, and to the adversary that this is a home that serves the one true God.

History of the Mezuzah

Throughout Israelite history and then Jewish, this custom of writing YEHOVAH’s Word on the doorposts of homes and businesses has been observed in various forms. According to tradition, the Israelite people have observed the commandment of mezuzah since it was given at Sinai. It is debatable whether mezuzot were actually in use during the forty-year journey through the desert, since the temporary huts used for dwelling were most likely exempt from the commandment just as a sukkot-booth is exempt from the mezuzah today. It is safe to assume that the mezuzah became a permanent feature of the Israelite home from the time that the Israelites settled in the land of Canaan.

It is interesting to realize that the ruins of Jericho acted as a mezuzah on the doorway to the Promised Land. The main eastern gate (or door) to the land is the mountain pass guarded by the city of Jericho. Jericho was located here partly because of the water supply and partly because it protected the entrance to Israel. Appropriately, YEHOVAH God commanded the ruins to be left as a testimony that the land belonged to Him and that those in it sought to serve Him. Thus, the ruins of Jericho, like a mezuzah, reminded all who entered Israel that it was YEHOVAH's land inhabited by YEHOVAH's people Israel.

Given this view, the curse Joshua placed on the ruins of the city (Joshua 6:26-27) makes sense. YEHOVAH God wanted His mark of ownership to remain on the land as a reminder that its inhabitants must live by His law. Ahab rebelled against YEHOVAH God when he allowed one of his subjects to remove YEHOVAH's mark (mezuzah) by rebuilding Jericho (1 Kings 16:34). Ahab's story illustrates his unwillingness to recognize YEHOVAH's Lordship and his refusal to live by YEHOVAH's law.

One of the earliest known reports of mezuzah observance is found in Josephus’ Antiquities of the Jews. He writes:

They are also to inscribe the principal blessings they have received from G‑d upon their doors...that G‑d’s readiness to bless them may appear everywhere conspicuous about them. (Ant. iv. 8, § 13)

Josephus notes that mezuzah was, already in his time, an ancient practice among the Israelites.

Notice what the Jewish Encyclopedia (1906) has to say regarding the history of the mezuzah --

The antiquity of the mezuzah is attested by Josephus (c. 37-100 C.E.), who speaks of its employment ("Ant." iv. 8, § 13) as an old and well-established custom. Inscribed with passages of the Torah which emphasize the unity of God, His providence, and the resulting duty of man toward Him, the mezuzah is an emblematic representation of Israel's belief and practice. Thus Josephus says in speaking of the mezuzah (l.c.): "The greatest benefits of God are to be written on the doors...in order that His benevolent providence may be made known everywhere"; and Maimonides adds ("Yad," Tefillin, vi. 13): "By the commandment of the mezuzah man is reminded, when coming or going, of the unity of God, and is aroused to the love of Him. He is awakened from his slumber and his vain worldly thoughts to the knowledge that nothing endures in eternity like the knowledge of the Rock of the World. This contemplation brings him back to himself and leads him on the right path."

Archaeological digs at Qumran (where the Dead Sea Scrolls were found) have discovered various kinds of mezuzot (plural of mezuzah) dating back to the Second Temple era. The mezuzot found at Qumran had different Scriptures in them from those in use today. Some of them contained Exodus 13:1-4, and others contained Exodus 13:11-16. According to Toby Janicki:

A total of eight mezuzot were found. Seven of these were in Cave 4 and one in Cave 8. The parchments themselves were made of animal skins and consisted of neatly cut pieces. The Hebrew script was the same size as other biblical manuscripts [found at Qumran], and the writing appears only on one side, as is seen today in traditional practice. The mezuzot parchments contained margins, spacing and layout conforming with rabbinical stipulations of the period. (Mezuzah, First Fruits of Zion, Marshfield, MO, 2013, p. 27.)

When the archaeologists studied the parchments they found that they contained the rabbinically required passages of Deuteronomy 6:4-6 and 11:13-21, as well as additional verses such as the Exodus 20 passage of the Ten Commandments. This may have been included in the original rabbinical practice of the time. When the Temple stood, the Ten Commandments were recited in conjunction with the daily Shema. It has been speculated that this may also reflect the rabbinic idea that "the Ten Commandments themselves are the very essence of the Shema." (y.Berachot 12b-13a)

Continues Janicki:

Another example of the combination of the Shema and the Decalogue is the Nash Papyrus. This fragment was found in Egypt and possibly dates as early as the Maccabean Period (165-137 BCE). On this papyrus is found the Hebrew text of Exodus 20:2-17 and Deuteronomy 6:4-5. The combination of these texts has led most scholars to speculate that it is some form of a liturgical text, and some scholars even conclude that it could have been a mezuzah. (ibid., p. 28)

The Targums (paraphrases of the Scriptures in Aramaic dating from both before and after the time of the Messiah) render Deuteronomy 6:9 as follows: "...and you should inscribe them in mezuzot and affix them on the doorposts of your houses and of your gates."

During the Roman occupation of Judea, the Judahites were prohibited from observing the commandments of mezuzah, tefillin and others. At the same time however, in the Diaspora, the Israelites held steadfast to these sacred practices.

There were periods of temporary lapses in the observance of mitzvah mezuzah, particularly in Spain. Rabbi Moses of Coucy visited Spain in 1235 to “reprove the people” as a result of which thousands and tens of thousands took upon themselves to observe the mitzvoth of tefillin, mezuzot, and tzitzith.

How the Custom Is Observed

After the destruction of the Temple in A.D. 70, the rabbis outlined instructions that detailed how to observe the custom of the mezuzah: how the parchment is to be written, which verses of the Torah to include, and how to attach it to the doorpost. This mitzvah (commandment) can be literally fulfilled by inscribing the doorposts themselves with the Word of YEHOVAH God.  However, most Jewish people today would consider this a sacrilegious act.

Over time, a Jewish custom evolved that a small container would be attached to the doorpost containing the Word of YEHOVAH God to the right side of a door, in the upper third of the doorpost at shoulder height.

You can make your own mezuzah by printing the scripture on paper and enclosing it in a weatherproof container. Or if you mount them inside, you do not need a case. Just fold the paper in half and tape it to the door post. Be sure to post a mezuzah on all doors that enter your home, including the garage, sliding glass doors, garage into the interior, etc. If you buy one of the ornate mezuzot for a few dollars, after mounting it to your front door, it is also effective at repelling members of religious cults such as Mormons and Jehovah’s Witnesses. The demons inside of them do not like mezuzot.

Note that for the true Christian Israelite believer, there is no requirement that the scroll be an expensive parchment, hand written by a Jewish scribe. Also, remember that a mezuzah should be mounted to every door opening to the outside, as well as each bedroom. Additionally, if you have a fence around your house, mount a mezuzah to the gate as well. Always make it difficult for the enemy to get to you!

Mezuzahs Have No Magical Powers

Remember, however, this is not some kind of magic amulet. It IS effective in keeping evil out of your home, but it will not work if your home is harboring sin like adultery, family violence or Masonry, to name a few. To work it requires both faith and faithfulness in obeying YEHOVAH God. Remember, those two English words have only ONE root word in Hebrew, Emun (Strong’s #529)!”

Sadly, some Jewish people today attribute magical powers to the presence of a mezuzah on the doorpost, which is a belief denounced by rabbinic authorities including the well-known Torah commentator and sage, Maimonides. The mezuzah was never meant to become a magical charm or amulet on the door to ward off evil spirits. Rather than a protective amulet, the mezuzah is meant to be A REMINDER to love YEHOVAH God and worship Him alone.

As Maimonides wrote in the Mishneh Torah, an influential work in Jewish religious thought:

“There is no harm in writing Shaddai on the outside; but those who write on the inside the names of angels, or holy names, or verses or other formulae, will be among those who have no share in the world to come. For these foolish people not only prevent the fulfillment of a great commandment, which has for its object, the remembrance of God’s unity, and the love for Him and the worship of Him, but they turn the Mezuzah into an amulet used for their own selfish interest, believing in their foolish hearts that it will protect their material possessions.”

Traditional Jewish Observance

“The Lord keeps watch over you as you come and go, both now and forever.” (Psalm 121:8)

This is not just some Jewish custom. It is actually a commandment in the Bible! The practice has developed somewhat over the centuries by the Jews, however the practice of affixing a mezuzah to the doorpost of one’s home has remained remarkably consistent -- even after thousands of years of history. If you wish to do it somewhat differently, that is fine.

According to Jewish thought, the mezuzah, in fact, is to be affixed to a new home or apartment as soon as possible, usually within 30 days of someone moving in. The affixation is a dedication to YEHOVAH God as a means of sanctifying the dwelling place with the Word of YEHOVAH God.

The mezuzah is held to the spot where it will be affixed, and the following blessing is recited:

Barukh atah Adonai Eloheinu melekh ha‘olam, asher kideshanu bemitzvotav vetzivanu likboa‘ mezuzah.

(Blessed are You, LORD our God, King of the Universe, Who sanctified us with His mitzvot, and commanded us to affix a mezuzah.)

Observant Jewish people touch the mezuzah with their fingers and then kiss the fingers that touched the mezuzah as they go into a dwelling or place of business and as they go out. The Jews believe that it’s a way of honoring the Holy Scriptures and a reminder of YEHOVAH’s promise to watch over their comings and their goings both now and forevermore.

Because the important part of the mezuzah is the klaf (parchment), the design of the outer cases is something of an art form. This little box can take various creative shapes, sizes, and artistic designs, ranging from a toy car for a little Jewish boy’s room to various traditional Jewish themes.

 Yeshua and the Mezuzah

When Yeshua the Messiah was asked by a rabbi which commandment he considered the most important, he replied with the passage found in a mezuzah:

Sh’ma Yisrael, Adonai Eloheinu, Adonai echad.  [Hear O Israel, the LORD is our God; the LORD is one]. (Mark 12:29; Deuteronomy 6:4-5)

There is no specific reference to the mezuzah in the New Testament; however, observing this custom can have significance for every true follower of YEHOVAH God and the Messiah. The mezuzah may serve as a reminder in a Christian Israelite home that we are called to “walk in the light as He is in the light.” (1 John 1:7) The apostle Peter wrote of the value of reminders:

I am trying to arouse you to wholesome thinking by means of reminders so that you will keep in mind…. (2 Peter 3:1-2)

Just as we use various reminder aids, like placing sticky notes on our bathroom mirrors or setting an alarm on our cell phones, YEHOVAH God also uses reminders. YEHOVAH realizes that with so many things vying for our attention, we need physical reminders of Him to bring His will into our daily lives. For this reason, YEHOVAH God also commanded the wearing of tzitzit (fringes) on the corners of our garments (Numbers 15:38); a thread of blue woven through the fringes reminds us of YEHOVAH's throne in heaven. The Sabbath, annual Festivals and Holy Days of the LORD, are also meant to be reminders of the great and mighty things YEHOVAH God has done for those of us of Israel down through the ages.

The Doorpost and Gate

You shall write them on the doorposts of your house and upon your gates. (Deuteronomy 6:9)

When we understand the significance of doorways and gates in the Bible, the words of the Messiah become even more meaningful. He said, “I am the gate….” (John 10:7-10) The door or gate was a vital place of entry for a sheep to enter into the protection and provision of its shepherd. At night, the shepherd would even guard his flock from predators with his whole body by lying across the entryway. The Messiah wants us to know that he is the only legitimate entry point to the everlasting protection and provision of YEHOVAH God the Father.

Those of Israel who are in relationship with YEHOVAH God through the Messiah have a right to participate in the Biblical customs and blessings of Israel, along with the responsibilities of that special calling. When entering and exiting our home, we will have a physical reminder of the high calling that we have in Yeshua the Messiah:

For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light….Have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them. (Ephesians 5:8-11)

The mezuzah is a wonderful way to make our decision to follow YEHOVAH God public knowledge. It reminds us of the Covenant we each have with the God of Israel. This is the God whom we serve. When we affix the mezuzah, we rededicate ourselves, our homes, and our families to the LORD God of Israel. There on the doorpost for all to see, it proudly bears witness that we are a full-fledged member of YEHOVAH's Ecclesia who believe in the Word of YEHOVAH God and His soon-coming Kingdom here on this earth.

A mezuzah can be bought on many Jewish and some Christian websites (and Amazon.com, of course!). If you cannot afford one or need this Biblical protection, just make one by folding up heavy-duty paper! Put the Scriptural passage (handwritten or photocopied) from the King James Bible (or the Tanakh) inside and attach it to your doorposts.

Here is the actual scripture that is inside the mezuzah. It does not matter which language it is written in. YEHOVAH God cares about YOU, not about the language you speak:

“Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD: And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might. And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart: And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up. And thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thine hand, and they shall be as frontlets between thine eyes. And thou shalt write them upon the posts of thy house, and on thy gates.

"And it shall come to pass, if ye shall hearken diligently unto my commandments which I command you this day, to love the LORD your God, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul, That I will give you the rain of your land in his due season, the first rain and the latter rain, that thou mayest gather in thy corn, and thy wine, and thine oil. And I will send grass in thy fields for thy cattle, that thou mayest eat and be full. Take heed to yourselves, that your heart be not deceived, and ye turn aside, and serve other gods, and worship them; And then the LORD’s wrath be kindled against you, and he shut up the heaven, that there be no rain, and that the land yield not her fruit; and lest ye perish quickly from off the good land which the LORD giveth you. Therefore shall ye lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul, and bind them for a sign upon your hand, that they may be as frontlets between your eyes. And ye shall teach them your children, speaking of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.”

Get or make a mezuzah today, and add it to your arsenal of weapons to use against the enemy. Obedience to YEHOVAH God always has its benefits.

If you choose to buy a mezuzah, try to obtain one that has a menorah inscribed or painted on the case. We see in Revelation 1:10-20 that the menorah -- NOT the cross -- is the symbol of YEHOVAH's true church or ecclesia. Therefore, a menorah is an appropriate symbol to have featured on the mezuzah case to identify the person or persons within the house to be true followers of YEHOVAH God and the Messiah. Also, as a word of warning, do NOT buy a case that has the Star of David inscribed or painted on it since this symbol is of pagan origin and an affront to YEHOVAH God. (See our article regarding this question).

Please pray for YEHOVAH's chosen people Israel, that the mezuzah on the doorposts of their homes will be a meaningful reminder to love YEHOVAH God with all their heart, mind, soul and strength. And please pray that it does not become just an amulet that they touch and kiss for the sake of religious tradition and looking “religious” in the eyes of others.
