The Tale of Men’s Hebrew Rings

We’ve had so many people contact us about buying men’s Hebrew rings. People from the USA, Canada, Australia, the UK, and even the occasional customer from the Far East. It’s amazing to see that Men’s Hebrew Rings are popular worldwide, and not only with Hebrew Speakers. Since Hebrew is the original language of the Bible, many men find a spiritual connection to the Hebrew language, without even recognizing the block read-right-to-left letters that make up the inscriptions on these rings.

In fact, we’ve had customers order men’s Hebrew rings from non-Hebrew or non-English speaking countries too. Men have ordered Hebrew rings from us who reside in the Philippines, Kenya, Russia, Holland, and Brazil. So it would seem that men’s Hebrew rings have much of an appeal worldwide. And although these rings are often referred to as “Jewish rings”, they are not necessarily Jewish at all. They are only called this because of the connection to the ancient texts of the Hebrew Bible.

Probably the appeal stems from wanting to have a constant reminder or either love, G-d, or a greater, higher, and stronger power that pushes us to live and do good in the world. Especially with a beloved partner to the long winding road that is life. This is why men’s Hebrew rings are often bought as wedding rings or friendship rings.

The more couple-oriented inscriptions are the famous My Beloved rings that say “I am to My Beloved as My Beloved is to Me” (Ani LedodiVeDodi Li in Hebrew) on them. Other popular couples’ inscription are “I found whom my soul loves” (Matzati Et SheAhavaNafshi) and “This is My Beloved and This is My Friend” (Ze Dodi VeZeRe’i).

Other inscriptions often selected for men’s Hebrew rings are “May the Lord Bless and Keep You” (Yevarechecha Hashem VeYishmerecha in Hebrew) and “Trust in the Lord with all your heart” (Betach El Hashem BecholLibcha).

Despite the fact that men could actually wear any style Hebrew ring, naturally men’s taste differs to women’s taste and so certain designs are made for men specifically. Most often men’s Hebrew rings will not include very wide rings – as many of the women’s rings – because men usually prefer a more understated style on their fingers.

A great example of this is a 14k white gold Jewish ring that is a thin band, not at all wide, and the inscription written on it is etched by a laser engraving. The great advantages of such a ring are that it won’t get in a way of any man’s daily tasks, it’s understated yet present enough to be noticed, and the laser engraved inscription is done in an elegant Hebrew font which is not too flashy.

This 14k white gold Jewish ring is also available in yellow gold for any man who’s in the market for the more classic look. In shopping for men’s Hebrew rings one often find rings that are made from a certain metal or a certain color, for example – silver, gold, platinum, and rose, white, or yellow gold. Men should remember that any vendor or jeweler may have their chosen ring available in a variety of colors and materials. All one has to do is ask.
