What are tzitzies?

Answer 1

Tzitzies, also known as tzitzit, are the fringes or tassels worn on the corners of traditional Jewish garments, particularly the tallit (prayer shawl) and sometimes on everyday clothing. They are commanded in the Torah as a reminder of God's commandments and serve as a spiritual and physical reminder to lead a life of faith and observance. Each tzitzit consists of specific knots and twists, and their significance is deeply rooted in Jewish tradition and law.
