Jewish home, devoted to the ideals of the Scripture-passages appearing
on it. It is also a symbol of G-d’s watchful care over the house and
its dwellers. It reminds both dwellers and visitors of the house,
right at the entrance: This house is a sanctuary to the Almighty.<\/p>\n
passages in which mention is made of this Divine commandment: \u00ab\u00a0Shema\u00a0\u00bb

it has to be affixed also \u00ab\u00a0upon thy gates.\u00a0\u00bb The affixing of the
Mezuzoh on gates leading to communal places, even on gates of cities
(where there are such), symbolizes the sovereignty of the Divine
commandments as outlined in \u00ab\u00a0Shema,\u00a0\u00bb also over the Jewish social and

city from the duty of affixing a \u00ab\u00a0Mezuzoh\u00a0\u00bb of its own. The Jewish

healthy and wholesome individuals and families.
