Description:
WIZO ART 2012 TZEDAKAH BOXES

In Hebrew, the word Tzedakah literally means “Justice or righteousness” – the Jewish concept of charity – the right, the just, the responsible way human beings care for each other.

The Hebrew language has no word for “charity”. Tzedakah is a given, because, as a human being created in the image of God, we all have the responsibility to take care of our fellow humans beings who are in need. It is not an option, but an obligation. Not a matter of choice, but a requirement. It is the right, the just thing to do.
