PIRKEI AVOT
Many Jewish communities practice the custom of learning Pirkei Avot (Ethics of our Fathers) on the Sabbaths between Passover and Rosh Hashanah. In fact, many prayer books include Pirkei Avot as part of the Shabbat afternoon liturgy. To honor this tradition, I have created a small series of works from Pirkei Avot.
These pieces make wonderful awards and gifts.
