Assi Meshulam has created a new Hebrew religion with its own scripture and prayer house but no followers. Described as a prophet with a long beard and snake tattoo, his extensive literary and artistic project is seen as more than just an intellectual pursuit.

  • Assi Meshulam has established a new Hebrew religion with scripture and a prayer house.
  • Despite his prophetic appearance, Meshulam currently has no followers.
  • His extensive project is described as a unique literary and artistic endeavor.
  • Meshulam is characterized by a long beard, a penetrating gaze, and snake tattoo.

Assi Meshulam presents himself as a prophet with his own scripture, a house of prayer, and writings, yet he has no followers. He is described as having a long beard, a gentle yet penetrating gaze, and wears black clothing, with a snake tattoo on his arm.

This unusual literary and artistic project, which has taken years to create, is unlikely to be merely an intellectual exercise.
