From file:
Religious experts and Tartan authorities worked meticulously to come up with a design that reflected religious values and Scottish history. The colors, weave, and number of threads have all been picked for their importance in Judaism. In the tartan design we have blue and white the colors of both the Israeli and Scottish flags with the central gold line representing the gold from the Ark in the Biblical Tabernacle and the many ceremonial vessels. The silver is to represent the silver that adorns the Scroll of the Law and the color red is for the traditional red kiddush wine. There are seven lines in the central motif and three in the flag representations - both numbers of great significance in Judaism.Made/Created
