Seven Species – Gold Leaf Ketubah
by Lee Loebman
Ketubah Description
This design features striking hand-applied 23 karat gold leaf accents. This design is based on a paper cutting featuring the 7 species from Deuteronomy. “For the Lord your God brings you into a good land, …a land of wheat, barley, vines, fig trees, pomegranates; a land of olive oil and (date) honey” Deuteronomy 8:7-8. The phrase at the bottom is from “The Song of Songs” and means, “I am my beloved’s and my beloved is mine”.
