What do Jews wear in a synagogue?
Which Jews? When? Which gender? Background of the Jews in question? At services in the liberal synagogue men wear a small cap called a kippah which is often embroidered. It is worn as sign of respect for God. At morning services in the synagogue men wear a prayer robe called a tallit which is usually made of silk or wool because this is a special type of clothing. At the bottom of the tallit is a fringe with some tassels at the end. In the orthodox synagogues men wear different types of clothes compared to what men wear in liberal synagogues. Men wear two small black leather boxes with straps as well as the tallit and kippah. These small black leather boxes that men wear are called tefilin. These boxes contain small pieces of parchment. The parchment has short quotations from the scriptures written on it. One box is worn above the middle of the forehead. This reminds Jews that they must love God with all their mind. The other box is worn on the arm facing the heart. This reminds Jews to love God with all their heart.
Are non-Jews allowed to wear a tallit while praying?
Answer 1Yes.In Judaism, the 613 commandments (mitzvot) are only considered requirements for Jews. Non-Jews are judged by a different standard of just 7 laws; this is known as the Noahide covenant, after the post-Flood ancestor of humanity. This is why, if you ask an Orthodox rabbi to help you convert to Judaism, he will dissuade you three times before finally allowing it: why would you want to take on heavy rsponsibility for yourself?Having said that, there's absolutely no reason why a non-Jew can't adopt some of the customs of Judaism, including wearing the tallit. Messianic Jews, for example, are essentially Christians who use Jewish forms of worship, and would not be considered Jews by most standards, but there is no problem with them doing this.Be thoughtful, however, as it may be misconstrued as mocking, depending on your attitude while wearing it and the tetchiness of the observer. To be certain, of course, you should always consult your local Orthodox rabbi.Answer 2While there is certainly is no law in Judaism forbidding the use of Jewish religious garments by non-Jews (just like there is no law in Catholicism against non-Christians using a rosary), non-Jews are typically asked not to wear the tallit in a synagogue as a sign of respect to the particular covenantal value of the garment.
