Summary

Deutsch: Flagge Israels.

English: Flag of Israel. Shows a Magen David (“Shield of David”) between two stripes. The Shield of David is a traditional Jewish symbol. The stripes symbolize a Jewish prayer shawl ( tallit). The colour blue represents the sea, the sky, and ultimately God.

Slovenščina: Državna zastava Izraela.

Licensing

This image is ineligible for copyright and therefore in the public domain, because it consists entirely of information that is common property and contains no original authorship.

This image shows a flag, a coat of arms, a seal or some other official insignia. The use of such symbols is restricted in many countries. These restrictions are independent of the copyright status.

Image notes

The color of the Magen David and the stripes of the Israeli flag is not precisely specified by legislation. The colour depicted in the current image is typical of flags seen in Israel, although individual flags can and do vary.
The flag legislation officially specifies dimensions of 220 cm × 160 cm. However, sizes of actual flags vary (and, in rare cases, even the aspect ratio as well).

      Proclamation of the Flag of the State of Israel," 25 Tishrei 5709 (28
      October 1948)
    For Magen David, the "Israel Science and Technology Homepage" at
       http://www.science.co.il/Israel-flag.asp specifies each side as 60 cm.
      Outer radius is then 30 / cos(30) = 20 * sqrt(3)
    For width of 5.5, use radius 20 * sqrt(3) - 5.5 (works for 30-60-90 tri.)
    Coordinates for upward-pointing triangle relative to centre are then:
      (                            0,-(20*sqrt(3) - 5.5)          )
      (-(20*sqrt(3) - 5.5) * cos(30), (20*sqrt(3) - 5.5) * sin(30))
