| In Judaism, the Chai
symbol consists of the letters of the Hebrew alphabet Het (ח) and
Yod (י).
In the Hebrew language, the word
chai (חי) spelled by these two letters means "living", and is
related to the word for "life", chaim, and also appears in the
slogan am yisrael chai! (עם ישראל חי, "The people of Israel lives!",
referring to all Jews). |
