"May the Angel which redeemed me from all evil
bless these lads; and let my
name be named on them, and the name of my fathers Abraham and Isaac;
and
let them grow into a multitude in the midst of the earth."
Genesis 48:16
Itzhak Luvaton, selected this moving verse from the Book of
Genesis to be the
central motif for his unique creation – the “TAG for LIFE”. Designed
to replicate the
Israeli Army ID-tag, it displays the Dove of Peace in the center,
with the verse from
the Book of Genesis engraved around the edges.
The “Tag for Life" symbolizes all the central motivating forces of
the artist’s life:
• The continued existence of the Jewish nation in its own Land of
Israel
• The yearning for Peace
• The personal survival of all Israel’s fighting sons and daughters
• The spirit of giving, and the mutual extending of an ever-ready
helping hand
18% of the profits (18 - "chai" the numerical symbol for Life in
Hebrew) will be
donated to the valiant soldiers of the Israeli Army.
There is a new version of the "Tag for life" made from Stainless
steel, adopted for
girls with the blessing "the name of my mothers Sara, Reevka,
Rachel and Leea"
and for boys with the blessing "the name of my fathers Abraham
and Isaac".
