    Etymology of the Ruby

    I would rather be adorned by beauty of character than jewels. Jewels are the gift of fortune, while character comes from within. –Plautus Without a doubt the most impressive of the High Priest’s vestments was the Breastplate (the Choshen) containing twelve different stones, one for each Tribe of Israel, with their names engraved on each stone.

I am Hashem your G-d, who brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, to give you the land of Canaan, to be your G-d. (From this week’s Torah portion, Behar,
