In the midst of a field of wheat and barley stands a Sukah laden with grapes, figs, pomegranates, olives and dates, the seven species of the Land of Israel. They can grow abundantly in both Jewish and Arab villages if they can find a way to share amicably the precious water and land and live together in peace. Then ... "neither shall they learn war any more" (Isaiah, 2:4). When two human beings build a home and a marriage together where peace and love abide, they may influence the world around them and bring it closer to harmony and peace.
Above is the prayer: "And spread over us thy shelter of peace." On the right and left are verses from The Song of Songs: "I am my beloved's and my beloved is mine," "I have found the one whom my soul loveth," and, "Thy shoots are an orchard of pomegranates with precious sweet fruits."
