* Jesus wore a prayer shawl when in the Temple

* Jews were commanded in the book of Leviticus to wear a four fringed garment. "When you look at it, you shall remember my law and remember me"   Did you ever tie a string around your finger to remember something Well, God said, Tie a string around your garment and when you look at it, you can remember me.  Now, since Jews were supposed to remember God's Law with the fringes, they are tied in a unique way.  There were 5 books of Moses, the fringe has 5 knots that reminds us of God's Law.  God's Name in Hebrew is a word that Jews never pronounce: Y H W H (Yahweh).  God's name has 4 letters, since the fringe has 5 knots, there are 4 spaces between them, consequently, when a Jew looks at the fringe, he remembers God's Law and God's Name.  That is the Jewish significance of the fringe.  Here is the Christian meaning: We recall the woman who had an issue of blood for twelve years, she approached Jesus, many translations say that she touched the hem. of his garment, rather, she touched the fringes of his garment and thereby she was touching God's Word and God's Name.  God's Law and God's Name is what the fringe symbolizes, not the hem of a skirt, The fringe symbolizes Jesus himself ‘the Word and the Name'.  This beautiful prayer shawl will be an inspirational tool in the development of your prayer life, it comes with the explanation above, which will make it even more of a spiritual gift for one of your friends or loved ones.
