The lion is the symbol of the tribe of Judah, from which descended the kings of Judah and the kings of Israel of Davidic lineage. According to Jewish tradition, the messiah must descend from the family of David.
The lion is also the symbol of strength in the riddle posed by Samson to the Philistines (Book of Judges 14:12-14).
The symbol of the lion is also present in the prophecy of Ezekiel called the “four living ones”.
This ring with the 2 Lions which surround the Tables of the Law represent the animal that is The Lion, King of the Animals and King of the Jungle and this proves to us the power of Gd.
