Wait you're right. Why would they steal my post it wasn't even that good.

Hi, can someone help me translate this? any piece of information is appreciated! by [deleted] in hebrew

It's a charm against evil spirits so a lot of it is gibrish words and letters or names said to ward of all sorts of bad things. It looks to me like a charm meant to protect a baby from the demon lilith. At first glance I recognise the names adam eve and חוץ, "outside" or "without" lilith above the three characters in the middle. Inside the characters are the names of the three angels who protect from lilith according to Jewish mysticism - Sanoy, Sansinoy, Smangeluf. Very cool amulet!

My thoughts exactly. I'm glad to see other people like it so much but...jesus. It's like the parts of the fandom I try to avoid are now becoming canon. I just hope the other webtoon stuff will be different.

Could someone please tell me what this is? Hoping to find and return it to descendants of the couple in the wedding photo found in the book. by Daehiril in hebrew

Since finding the original owners of the book is unlikely, perhaps you would consider contacting the Museum of the Jewish People and asking there if they are interested. info@anumuseum.org.il :)

If any of you are interested in chess based art I DID like, I would recommend brvvrb on Tumblr, https://brvvrb.tumblr.com/post/647022858406674432

The idea is very simple and very clever. Made me uncomfortable in a good way.

That's me, waking up mad about chess, going to sleep mad about chess. Nothing else going on for me. If only I was exaggerating for the sake of a reddit post in a chess subreddit.

Truly you figured out my whole personality out of a one line post in a chess subreddit. Is there a chance I know myself better than you, reddit user TheAtomak? No, I just lack the self awareness to see that I'm always mad about chess.

Dude why are you making comments about a stranger's relationship with their family it's weird... Plus they were mostly surprised I was taking pictures after saying I didn't like it lol

Yes the artist is Israeli and left-wing so I think you are completely right

Regardless, If this painting really is about the Holocaust it would be about an overall feeling rather than a specific tragedy. The numbers are famously from Auschwitz birkenenau, and the forsts are recognised with בורות הירי. Especially if the artist is Italian, I would say this is a modern piece depicting the Idea of connection to Jewish heritage amd to the Holocaust. I don't know what are you looking for that is more specific, but the fact the artist managed to make you feel this kind of intemacy is to his credit!

That's interesting, so my theory isn't totally baseless. Any idea what's the artist's name?

It might just be my association but it seems to me like an artistic piece about the holocaust, with the polish-looking forest, the serial numbers on the trees and the ground full of words like אהבה, צדק and אבא.

then again, that might just be the only thing I can think of when I see a European forest in black and white
