As a fundamental aspect of Jewish mysticism, the 72 Names of God can be displayed elegantly on contemporary jewelry to serve as a reminder of God’s intricate work.
Kabbalah is an aspect of Judaism that centers on God and the way His power works. Kabbala can be translated as “mysticism” or “occult knowledge,” which makes sense considering the mysteriousness of God’s ways. Kabbalists feel that a complete understanding of God’s essence is attainable, achieving the ultimate bond with God.
Many people refer to this aspect of Judaism as Jewish mysticism. Kabbalists feel that there is a strong relationship between God and humanity, and every human can reveal the hidden part of God in their soul. They also believe that the Creator and the Creation are one. They exist as a continuum.
The Zohar is a book containing mystical commentaries on the Torah written in Aramaic and Hebrew. It guides Kabbalists to achieve a stronger connection with God.
In the book of Exodus, there is a powerful scene where Moses parts the Red Sea. Many people turn to the belief that God parted the sea to forge the path to freedom. However, some Kabbalists believe that it was Moses who harnessed his relationship with God and the higher realm through the 72 Names of God.
There are three verses in Exodus that explain the parting of the Red Sea. Each verse contains precisely 72 letters in the Hebrew version, of course. Letters can be arranged into different sequences, all consisting of three letters. These three-lettered names are the 72 Names of God, and for centuries, only a few Kabbalists understood that they could help strengthen your relationship with God and His power.
The three-letter names all represent a specific frequency in Jewish spirituality. In looking at the letters, closing your eyes, visualizing, and reflecting, you can achieve these frequencies.
As the power of the 72 Names of God has risen in popularity in Jewish Kabbalist belief, so has jewelry containing the mystical symbols. Keeping the 72 Names of God close can serve as a reminder for a strengthened bond with God and His otherworldly and ultimate power. Contemporary culture tapped into the scene of wearing symbols and messages that inspire and empower us. Therefore, in wearing the 72 Names of God, you can hold a deep level of mysticism and connected with God.
One of the more popular ways of showing your relationship with God is by wearing the 72 Names on a pendant. There are thousands of beautiful creations that display the Names exquisitely and respectfully. By wearing a pendant, you can also keep the 72 Names close to your heart, as a close reminder to continually reflect about God’s mighty power while you wear it.
