Founding and name[edit]
The name came from the bible, and is a poetic word from the Hebrew language.
The meaning of the word “veanveu” is to 'beautify', to ‘glorify’[1][2][3], to ‘adorn’, to ‘praise’[4][5][6] etc.[7]. The term “veanveu” is the origin of halachic principle called “Hiddur Mitzvah”[8] means that a god’s commandments better be performed in a pleasant and elegant manner and by means of fine objects.
״זֶ֤ה אֵלִי֙ וְאַנְוֵ֔הוּ (שמות, פרק ט״ו, פסוק ב)״ - התנאה לפניו במצות; עשה לפניו סוכה נאה, ולולב נאה, ושופר נאה, ציצית נאה, ספר תורה נאה וכתוב בו לשמו בדיו נאה, בקולמוס נאה, בלבלר אומן וכורכו בשיראין נאין
— תלמוד בבלי, מסכת שבת, דף קלג, עמוד ב
“This is my God, and I will beautify (or glorify) Him (Exodus, chapter 15, verse 2) - which implies: beautify oneself before Him in the fulfilment of the commandments. For example: make before him a beautiful sukkah, a beautiful lulav, a beautiful shofar, beautiful tzitzis and a beautiful Torah scroll, and write it for His sake with fine ink, a beautiful pen, and a expert scribe, and wrap the Torah with beautiful silks.”
