Tzedakah
is one of the most important and beautiful traditions of Judaism. The design
of this piece is based on the meaning of Tzedakah from Biblical sources
to the interpretation of the Rambam.
Engraved on each stair is a verse from the Rambam's eight levels of Tzedakah.
This Tzedakah Box is three separate boxes that unite to form one whole shape.
Each of the three separate boxes represent a different form of Tzedakah
as described in the Siddur. Engraved around the base is a beautiful verse
from the Bible concerning Tzedakah. "He that follows righteousness and mercy
finds life, prosperity and honor". Proverb 22/21. The concept of this piece
is to demonstrate that regardless of which charity one chooses to contribute,
one must not lose sight of the purpose. It is not only to What you give,
but how and why.
