Flag of Israel (GIF)



The flag of Israel (Hebrew: דגל ישראל; Arabic: علم إسرائيل), known as the "Star of David" or "Magen David," is a simple but profound design featuring a blue Star of David (a six-pointed star in the shape of a hexagram) in the center, flanked by two horizontal blue stripes on a white field. The white color, the national color of the Jewish people, symbolizes purity, while the blue stripes represent the lines in traditional Jewish prayer shawls and their heritage. The Star of David, a universally recognized symbol of Judaism, signifies Jewish identity and unity. The flag was officially adopted on October 28, 1948, upon Israel's declaration of independence, and it continues to serve as a powerful emblem of the nation's Jewish heritage, culture, and identity.

The emblem of Israel is a design featuring a menorah with seven branches, two olive branches on either side, and the Hebrew word for "Israel" at the bottom. The menorah is a symbol of Judaism and is associated with the historical temple in Jerusalem. The two olive branches represent the hope for harmony in the region. The emblem was officially adopted shortly after the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948 and serves as a representation of the nation's Jewish heritage and its national identity as a sovereign state in the Middle East.

Several of these facts are incorrect there is no 'hexagram' it is a Star of David. The people creating this site should have taken more time researching.
