New Hupah
Around interlocking wedding rings reads "This is my beloved, this is my friend" from
the songs of songs. Pomegranates, a special fruit of Israel, symbolize abundance. According to the
Midrash, their seed number 613, the number of laws in the Torah. The Jewish wedding canopy has come to
represent the couple's new home, open on all sides to receive the love and support of the community
around them. Below, from the prayerbook, is "Rejoice and be glad, O loving friends."
