Shekel
        

(See MONEY.) It is found inscribed only with the Samaritan character, the original form of the Hebrew. The lulab is a frequent symbol, namely, branches of the three trees in Leviticus 23:40, the palm, the myrtle, and the willow, carried at the feast of tabernacles. Also the citron fruit, and a palm tree between two baskets of fruit.
