I agree with your C¤vid responses yet respectfully disagree on your take here. Whether the symbol was or wasn't used on King David's shield, the Rothschild's made it popular and Hashem loves all his people including Rabbi Yehoshua and people today. History doesn't stop after Torah canon and his love and PROTECTION for righteousness doesn't either. My Chabad Rebbi and friend taught me how Mayer Rothschild, the patriarch wasn't even allowed to own a business as a Jew in the 1500s. HaShem put him in the position to protect the Royal Wilhelm estate and the rest became HIStory. The reason I bring up Rabbi Yehoshua is because I've awakened to the notion that disinformation didn't start during today's crimes against humanity, especially under opposition (Roman) rule; things can get dicey.

I thought that the swastika was originally the mark on Cain’s forehead because the swastika was an ancient sun sign for agriculture and Cain owned a farm?

Chacham Green,

Six pointed star was associated with different Avodah Zarah at different times.

Here is one from Baalbek temple of Bacchus see the Six pointed star on the ceiling if you scroll through there are some nice photos:

Of course we all know about the Molech Worship and the six pointed star....having a star associated with Molech to me is the greatest proof Melech Dawid would have shunned such a symbol.

What is the relation between the 6-pointed star and merkaba, or merkabah?

Some Native Americans used the swastika. Hindus used it as well
