Around 7,000 square meters (roughly 75,000 square feet) of exhibition space await you at the Museum, telling an elaborate and multifaceted story. The Museum's broad scope of content promises all of us a mesmerizing journey, during which we can discover and investigate the unique and continuing story of the Jewish people. And through that story, we can also uncover our own story, in a way that makes it current and relevant to each and every one of us. The tour: The Museum of the Jewish People begins in the present, in our day and age, to which an entire floor is dedicated. It is also the largest space in the Museum. Called The Mosaic, it celebrates the huge contribution made by Jews to human civilization in the modern period. Through a festive array of lights and colors, hundreds of exhibits, cutting-edge interactive displays, dramatic lighting, different genres of music and illuminating films, this floor puts the spotlight on diverse creators from across the Jewish spectrum. They embody the kaleidoscopic and engaging expanse of contemporary Jewish identities and cultures – as seen through folklore and the arts, language and literature, the different denominations in Judaism, and the contribution made by Jews to civilization. All of them articulate the fascinating and multifaceted aspects of Jewish identity and culture, both individual and collective, that are relevant to all of us and enable us, whether as individuals, groups or families, to find our place here. The second floor of the Museum – The Journey – tells the unique and continuing story of the Jewish people from ancient times to the present day. As visitors, the trail we take on this floor enables us to become acquainted with the largest Jewish centers in various periods of history, starting from ancient times (Alexandria, the Land of Israel and Babylonia) to the Middle Ages (Sepharad and Ashkenaz). From there we proceed to the early days of the modern period where, on the one hand, we can see the impact of the invention of the printing press and, on the other, the emergence of the false messiah, Shabbetai Zevi. The time has now come to ask – what are the ideological, cultural and religious foundations of this story? The Foundations floor deals precisely with that and highlights the key infrastructure on which the unique and universal elements of Judaism were built. The unique foundations include Shabbat (the Sabbath), the Covenant, the Jewish calendar and milestones in life. The Bible and its influences on different cultures worldwide represent the universal foundations. Hallelujah! – our splendid Synagogues Gallery, which celebrates the life and culture that developed in synagogues and continue to thrive in them to this very day, completes the wealth of exhibits on the Foundations floor.
