Jewish Continuity Ark

Jewish Continuity Ark at Univ. of Florida Hillel (8’-2”H x 5’-6”W) illustrating the unbroken stream of Jews from our forefathers to the present and beyond. The inscription is from Psalms 128: “May you live to see your children’s children, and may there be peace upon Israel”

When the bi-fold panels of the outer doors are folded back for services, the generational theme continues with an emphasis on the relationship of each generation to God. The quote is from the Kedushah in the Shabbat morning Amidah: “May You (God) be exalted and sanctified in Jerusalem Your city, from generation to generation and for all eternity”
