I love Hebrew tradition, which is very beautiful and relevant even today. I have often studied the Torah and am still learning.

The Mezuzah has spiritual powers and energies.
The Mezuzah is one of the ancient Jewish traditions. It is an expression of that household� s devotion to God.

Deuteronomy 6:4-9 and 11:13-21 which gave commandment to: “You shall write them upon the doorposts of your home and your gates”. These passages are the first two portions of the Shema prayer, and confirm God's existence and authority.

The Torah commands us that we should live our lives in such a way that bind us to God. Thus, we should meditate on and discuss the Torah day and night.

The Mezuzah comes in many designs and colors and usually has a portion of scripture from the Torah inside. My husband and I are Christians, but are getting one this year, to express a new commitment to God.

Every Mezuzah is marked with the Hebrew letter shin. This symbolizes the first letter of the word Shaddai with means Almighty.

Inside each case, there is a small scroll with two scriptures in it from Deuteronomy, which begin with, "Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God is one."

You can purchase a Mezuzah at synagogue or on line. It is best to purchase a kosher Mezuzah bless by a Rabbi Even some high-end Christian bookstores sell them. Once you get your mezuzah, place it on the right side of your doorpost around shoulder height so that everyone entering can see it.

Tradition says that any Jew can pronounce a blessing as long as they know the importance of the mitzvah. You can affix your Mezuzah with nails or screws, once the blessing is pronounced.

Now, you have a physical reminder that as you enter and exit you home, God is with us and our home is worthy of God's protection.
