Just a reminder, the old flag of Birobidzhan, the Jewish Autonomous Oblast of the Soviet Union, is amazing. I'd like to see more folks waving it because the rainbow is an ancient symbol of the rainbow covenant, anti-predation, and divine-human boundaries en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jewish_Au…
Here's my remix of the flag from 2015 where the rainbow is superimposed against a cosmic background. The presence of the Pleiades and Orion in the flag is a reference to the end of the story of the Nephilim in the Midrash of Shemḥazai and Aza'el.
