Artist:
Denis Sirotinin.
Arms:
The two coronets
represent the armiger’s
hereditary priestly
lineage and rabbinical
ordination, both
metaphorically referred
to as crowns in the
Talmud (corpus of
ancient Jewish wisdom).
Moreover, the coronets
additionally represent
the armiger’s marriage
into the family of the
legendary King Saul Wahl
Katzenellenbogen who was
“rex pro tempore” of
Poland in 1587. The
breastplate further
symbolizes the armiger’s
priestly status as a
direct descendant of the
biblical Aaron.
Crest: The eagle’s head,
a common Germanic
symbol, denotes the
armiger’s historical
ties to Austria from
which his family hailed
prior to their arrival
in America.
The armiger, also known
as Yosef Moshe Cohen in
Hebrew, is a Rabbi and
noted educator. Born
1983, New York.
