The First Symbol: Zroa
The Zroa, or shank bone, represents the Pesach, the special lamb sacrifice made in the days of the Temple for the Passover holiday. It is called the pesach, from the Hebrew word meaning “to pass over,” because God passed over the houses of our ancestors in Egypt when visiting plagues upon our oppressors.
Point to the shank bone. Everyone admire it.
