Bread Ceremonial Judaism Shew Shewbread


EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the awe-inspiring sight of the Table of Shewbread in a historic synagogue, a central and sacred object in Jewish tradition. The Table of Shewbread, also known as the Shulhan le-Panim or "Table before the Face," is a beautifully ornate piece of furniture that holds twelve loaves of matzo, or unleavened bread, representing the twelve tribes of Israel. The tradition of the Table of Shewbread dates back to the time of the First Temple in Jerusalem, as described in the Book of Exodus. According to the biblical account, two sets of six loaves were baked each week and placed on the table in the Tabernacle, the portable sanctuary that the Israelites carried with them during their wanderings in the desert. When the Temple was built in Jerusalem, the practice continued, and the Table of Shewbread became a permanent fixture. The bread was replaced every Sabbath, and it was considered a great honor for a priest to have the privilege of removing the old loaves and replacing them with new ones. The Table of Shewbread was also covered with a veil, symbolizing the presence of God in the sanctuary. This photograph offers a glimpse into the rich history and symbolism of the Table of Shewbread in Jewish tradition. The intricately carved woodwork and the gleaming silver plates and cups that surround the table add to its beauty and grandeur, making it a fitting representation of the divine presence in the synagogue. The Table of Shewbread continues to be a source of inspiration and wonder for Jews around the world, reminding us of the enduring connection between our faith and our ancestors.
