Golda

Golda. The first female Prime Minister in Israel, beginning March 17, 1969. Born in Kiev in 1898, her family moved to Milwaukee when she was 8. She moved in 1921 to what was then British Mandate Palestine.

At 71  years  old, Golda Meir became the world's third female Prime Minister (after Sirimavo Bandaranaike of Sri Lanka and Indira Gandhi of India).

The man is “chochma”;  the seed, the beginning, the idea the inspiration.

The woman is “binah” ; taking an idea and bringing it into fruition , leading into the next step, bringing something down into reality. Taking ingredients and making something actually edible.

Golda symbolizes binah, the strength of a Jewish woman to see what needs to be done and bringing it into a reality.
