Two salient reasons for the Jewish tradition of placing a mezuzah in the #doorway of every room intended for human dwelling: as a reminder to elevate our behavior and as a prayer for God to guard us through transitions. Perhaps these two explanations are one and the same? 🤔 #vss365 #writersofbluesky

The mezuzah affixed to my home's front door. The Hebrew letter shin stands for the word shaddai (guardian) and is the first letter of the prayer shema, inside the scrolls, which means listen. The whole prayer speaks of love.
