A three foot long mezuzah, which is to be featured in the upcoming 2009 Guiness Book of World's Records as the world's largest mezuzah, is on display at a calligraphy exhibit in the Kehilat Yedidya synagogue in Jerusalem. The mezuzah parchment measures 94 centimeters or 3 feet one inch long and 76 centimeters or 2 feet six inches wide. The mezuzah case is 110 centimeters long, just over three feet and seven inches.
It was created and hand-written by Avraham-Hersh Borshevsky, an Israeli artist and calligrapher. Mordechai Beck, one of the artists featured in the exhibit and a member of the synagogue, was interviewed on Walter's World on Israel National Radio about the mezuzah and other works.
