Hanukkah יהודית Judith 6th Night of Chanukah

Did you know in some countries, the 6th night of Hanukkah is dedicated to celebrating women because of Judith? The heroin that helped the Macabee succeed in a badass way. She meditated and asked G-d if hurting one man was worth the sin of saving thousands of women from rape and death. So she beheads Holofernes.
 
Honor the strong women in the Jewish community with this plate I made. I drew her based on historical renderings of what Jewish women looked like during the time of the Roman Empire.
