Parshat Bereshit - Yesh M'ayn Construction Acrylic Photo Tile

A humorous, allegorical rendering of "Bereshit" (In the beginning), Genesis 1:1, the first Torah portion, or parsha. A blueprint of the Universe, depicted as a Torah scroll and a yellow construction hardhat, or helmet superimposed on a starry background. The logo of the Yesh M'ayn (Something From Nothing) Construction Company," with English text reading, "Established in the beginning," appears on the side of the helmet. The text of Genesis 1:1, In the beginning G-d created the heavens and the earth" also appears. You may customize by adding your own additional text. Yesh M'ayn (something out of nothing) is the Hebrew equivalent of ex nihilo, Latin meaning "out of nothing." The idea that G-d created the Universe out of nothing, creatio ex nihilo, is a central tenet of Judaism Jews believe that the Torah is the blueprint by which the Universe was made. Everything is contained within it and when G-d made the world He used it as his guide.
