<strong>The</strong> number Three, symbolize the threefold bond <strong>of</strong> love between God and Israel.<br />
( Isa. 43:1)<br />
I have redeemed thee,<br />
I have called on thy name--<br />
thou art Mine.<br />
In a sense, they form a threefold wedding ring. While making these windings, it is customary to repeat the<br />
following verses from the Book <strong>of</strong> Hosea (2:21-22).<br />
I will wed You to me forever<br />
I will wed You to me with right and justice, with love and mercy<br />
I will wed You to me with faith… and you shall know God.<br />
