Chai -- a
poplar theme for Jewish Jewellry: such as
Chai Y'All
Judaism as a religion is
very focused on life. The word chai has great
significance, and the typical Jewish toast is l'chayim
(to life).
 Chai
comes from the letter Chet
[ה]
and Yod [י].
Combining the two letters forms the Hebrew word
Chai - הי.
This symbol, commonly seen on necklaces and other
jewelry and ornaments. The meaning of the Hebrew
word Chai is "living". Some say it refers to the
Living God. Hebrew reads right to left, while English
reads left to right.
The
numeric value of Chai is 18 and monetary gifts are
generally given in multiples of 18.
The name
of the internet site called MileChai is formed from
the English word Mile and the Hebrew letter Chai.
Making a play on the phrase "Mile High" City of
Denver.
[Mile Chai
®
- pronounced as in Mile High - silent C - long I]
Denver is a mile high. There's a spot on the steps
of the State Capitol building that is exactly 5,280
feet above sea level.
