For some, a Hebrew tattoo can express a deep spiritual connection - whether for love, faith, or courage. For others, however, espThere are as many designs for a tattoo in Hebrew as there are grains of sand on a beach, it seems, and all can be modified to suit one's personal taste. Most are of a religious or otherwise spiritual sort, with other symbols surrounding. By no means does this limit Hebrew tattoos to Jewish or Christian followers!
Keep in mind that the Hebrew language is written from right to left - and make sure to double check with a native speaker before getting any permanent ink. It is quite possible that many of the free designs available are actually backwards...how embarrassing! ecially for those of a more Orthodox nature, Hebrew is a sacred language.
The old guard frowns upon tattooing some words in Hebrew anywhere in the body (in fact, Leviticus 19:28 says, "You shall not make cuts in your body...nor make any tattoo marks on yourselves: I am the LORD."). As forbidding as the scripture might sound, Hebrew tattoos are still highly sought-after.
