צוואת הריב"ש 21

Tzava'at HaRivash · Chapter 21

‹›
  1. 1

    וכשמניח הטלית יראה את התכלת פירוש שתפול עליו יראה.

    When you don the prayer shawl (Talit), “Observe the Techeilet-blue string.”43Numbers 15:38 The explanation of this is that fear of HaShem should come upon you.44Talmud Bavli, Menachot 43b: “Rabbi Shimon Bar Yochai says: Anyone who is diligent in this Mitzvah-commandment merits receiving the Divine Presence. For with respect to the fringes-Tzitzit it is written, ‘That you may look upon it-u’Re’item Oto-וראיתם אותו’ (Num. 15:39) and it is written, ‘You shall fear HaShem, your God, and Him you shall serve-Et HaShem Elohecha Tirah, V’Oto Ta’avod-את ה׳ אלהי״ך תירא ואותו תעבוד.’ (Deut. 6:13).”
