Seven Species III Ketubah
by Judith Joseph
Ketubah Description
Brimming with abundance, this Ketubah includes the seven species of the Holy Land mentioned in the Bible: wheat, barley, grapes, figs, dates, pomegranates and olives. The promise of plenty, fulfillment and hope opens to a view of the Jordan River, reaching to distant heights. The Eden-like scene is crowned by a loving pair of doves, symbols of peace, loving fidelity and God’s covenant.
