The Merkava’s fascinating structure is based on mythical and historical teachings in Jewish spirituality and tradition that represent a form of energetic structure that dates back to Abraham. The artwork on the Merkava Diamond Bible embodies the transformation of this spiritual concept into the two-dimensional Star of David, the quintessential emblem of Israel.

The Star of David is formed of two interlocked triangles fused in a deep holistic bond. One triangle points heavenward, with its base on earth. The other has its base in the heavens and faces the earth. This stunning bible expresses the duality of the Torah as both a guide for life and the key to eternity.

The six diamonds in the bible allude to vav, the sixth letter of the Hebrew alphabet. Vav is one of the letters that form the name of God. Vav’s elongated vertical shape is a bridge that links heaven and earth. The Merkava Diamond Bible represents the unbreakable connection between the Torah and the Jewish people.

“The movement of the rays of light between the diamonds and the Star of David mirrors the spirit of God touching man.” – Noy Ben- Porat, designer of the Merkava Diamond Bible.

About This Artist

Or Yahalom

The “Beresheet” Collection is Or Yahalom’s initial series of six luxury bibles adorned with genuine diamonds in breathtaking designs.

The luster of diamonds illuminates the divine light of the Torah. The letters in the word diamond, “yahalom” or “יהלום” echo those in the name of God, “Elohim” or “אלוהים”. By combining the Torah and diamonds, OrYahalom sheds new light on the role of each one in the universe. 

Diamonds are the ultimate substance formed from nothingness, black carbon transformed into brilliant white light. They are the material through which we can best comprehend God’s creation of the world as well as the inner light of the soul. A polished diamond expresses mankind’s ability to partner with God in creation. OrYahalom celebrates the bond between the Torah and diamonds, both of which emanate their mutual light to all of humanity.
