These passages do not specify tying particular types or numbers of knots in the fringes. The exact customs regarding the <a href="/wiki/Tzitzit#Threads_and_knots" title="Tzitzit">tying of the tzitzit</a> and the format of the tallit are of post-biblical, rabbinic origin and, though the <a href="/wiki/Talmud" title="Talmud">Talmud</a> discusses these matters, slightly different traditions have developed in different communities.<a href="#cite_note-6">[5]</a> However the Bible is specific as to the purpose of these tzitzit, stating that "it shall be unto you for a fringe, that ye may look upon it, and remember all the commandments of the LORD, and do them; and that ye go not about after your own heart and your own eyes, after which ye use to go astray; that ye may remember and do all My commandments, and be holy unto your God".<a href="#cite_note-7">[6]</a> <a href="/wiki/Encyclopaedia_Judaica" title="Encyclopaedia Judaica">Encyclopaedia Judaica</a> describes the prayer shawl as "a rectangular mantle that looked like a blanket and was worn by men in ancient times". Also, it "is usually white and made either of wool, cotton, or silk".<a href="#cite_note-8">[7]</a> Traditionally the tallit is made of wool or linen, based on an understanding that reference to a "garment" in the Bible in connection with a mitzvah refers specifically to wool and linen garments.<a href="#cite_note-9">[8]</a> Though other materials are sometimes used, the debate has not reached a conclusion, and many, especially among the orthodox, prefer wool which is accepted by all authorities.<a href="#cite_note-10">[9]</a> There is also debate about mixed wool and linen tallit, since the Bible forbids <a href="/wiki/Shatnez" title="Shatnez">klayim (shatnez)</a>—"intertying" wool and linen together, with the two exceptions being <a href="/wiki/Temple_robes" class="mw-redirect" title="Temple robes">garments of kohanim</a> and tzitzit.

Just as he argued that a blue fringe is superfluous for an entirely blue garment, in the text of the Torah he argued that a holy leader like Moses was unnecessary for a nation which was entirely holy (<a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://mechon-mamre.org/p/pt/pt0416.htm#3">Numbers 16:3</a>).<a href="#cite_note-20">[19]</a> The phrase "more kosher than tzitzit" is a Yiddish metaphoric expression (כשר'ער ווי ציצית) with similar connotations but is not necessarily used in a sarcastic sense. It can refer, in the superlative, to something that is really so perfect and flawless as to be beyond all reproach or criticism.[<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed">citation needed</a>] </section><div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 section-heading" onclick="mfTempOpenSection(5)"><h2 id="Customs">Customs</h2> <a role="button" href="/w/index.php?title=Tallit&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: Customs" class="cdx-button cdx-button--size-large cdx-button--fake-button cdx-button--fake-button--enabled cdx-button--icon-only cdx-button--weight-quiet "> edit </a> </div><section class="mf-section-5 collapsible-block" id="mf-section-5"> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Szal_modlitewny_z_domu_Szymona_Klugera_w_O%C5%9Bwi%C4%99cimiu,_M%C5%BB_333-O_01.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><noscript><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/ff/Szal_modlitewny_z_domu_Szymona_Klugera_w_O%C5%9Bwi%C4%99cimiu%2C_M%C5%BB_333-O_01.jpg/220px-Szal_modlitewny_z_domu_Szymona_Klugera_w_O%C5%9Bwi%C4%99cimiu%2C_M%C5%BB_333-O_01.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="153" class="mw-file-element" data-file-width="4000" data-file-height="2788"></noscript><span class="lazy-image-placeholder" style="width: 220px;height: 153px;" data-src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/ff/Szal_modlitewny_z_domu_Szymona_Klugera_w_O%C5%9Bwi%C4%99cimiu%2C_M%C5%BB_333-O_01.jpg/220px-Szal_modlitewny_z_domu_Szymona_Klugera_w_O%C5%9Bwi%C4%99cimiu%2C_M%C5%BB_333-O_01.jpg" data-width="220" data-height="153" data-srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/ff/Szal_modlitewny_z_domu_Szymona_Klugera_w_O%C5%9Bwi%C4%99cimiu%2C_M%C5%BB_333-O_01.jpg/330px-Szal_modlitewny_z_domu_Szymona_Klugera_w_O%C5%9Bwi%C4%99cimiu%2C_M%C5%BB_333-O_01.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/ff/Szal_modlitewny_z_domu_Szymona_Klugera_w_O%C5%9Bwi%C4%99cimiu%2C_M%C5%BB_333-O_01.jpg/440px-Szal_modlitewny_z_domu_Szymona_Klugera_w_O%C5%9Bwi%C4%99cimiu%2C_M%C5%BB_333-O_01.jpg 2x" data-class="mw-file-element"> </a><figcaption>Tallit found at the House of <a href="/wiki/Shimson_Kleuger" title="Shimson Kleuger">Shimson Kleuger</a>, Oświęcim</figcaption></figure> In some Jewish communities a tallit gadol is given as a gift by a father to a son, a father-in-law to a son-in-law, or a teacher to a student. It might be purchased to mark a special occasion, such as a wedding or a <a href="/wiki/Bar_mitzvah" class="mw-redirect" title="Bar mitzvah">bar mitzvah</a>. Many parents purchase a tallit gadol for their sons at the age of 13, together with <a href="/wiki/Tefillin" title="Tefillin">tefillin</a>, though among the orthodox a male child will have been wearing a tallit katan from pre-school age. In the Reform, Reconstructionist, Renewal, and Conservative movements many women nowadays also wear a tallit gadol. While many worshipers bring their own tallit gadol to synagogue, there is usually a rack of them for the use of visitors and guests. At Jewish wedding ceremonies, a tallit gadol is often used as a <a href="/wiki/Chuppah" title="Chuppah">chuppah</a> or wedding canopy. Similarly, a tallit gadol is traditionally spread out as a canopy over the children during the <a href="/wiki/Torah" title="Torah">Torah</a>-reading ceremony during the holiday of <a href="/wiki/Simchat_Torah#Torah_reading_and_customs" title="Simchat Torah">Simchat Torah</a>, or in any procession with Torah scrolls, such as when parading a newly completed scroll through the streets. The tallit gadol is traditionally draped over the shoulders, but during prayer, some cover their head with it, notably during specific parts of the service such as the <a href="/wiki/Amidah" title="Amidah">Amidah</a> and when called to the Torah for an <a href="/wiki/Aliyah_(Torah)" title="Aliyah (Torah)">aliyah</a>. In the <a href="/wiki/Talmud" title="Talmud">Talmudic</a> and post-Talmudic periods the tefillin were worn by <a href="/wiki/Rabbi" title="Rabbi">rabbis</a> and scholars all day, and a special tallit was worn at prayer; hence they put on the tefillin before the tallit, as appears in the order given in "Seder Rabbi Amram Gaon" (p. 2a) and in the <a href="/wiki/Zohar" title="Zohar">Zohar</a>. In modern practice, the opposite order is considered more "correct". Based on the Talmudic principle of tadir v'she'ayno tadir, tadir kodem (תדיר ושאינו תדיר, תדיר קודם: lit., frequent and infrequent, frequent first), when one performs more than one <a href="/wiki/Mitzva" class="mw-redirect" title="Mitzva">mitzva</a> at a time, those that are performed more frequently should be performed first. While the tallit is worn daily, tefillin are not worn on Shabbat and holidays. <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:YemeniJew1914.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><noscript><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/84/YemeniJew1914.jpg/220px-YemeniJew1914.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="317" class="mw-file-element" data-file-width="487" data-file-height="702"></noscript><span class="lazy-image-placeholder" style="width: 220px;height: 317px;" data-src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/84/YemeniJew1914.jpg/220px-YemeniJew1914.jpg" data-width="220" data-height="317" data-srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/84/YemeniJew1914.jpg/330px-YemeniJew1914.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/84/YemeniJew1914.jpg/440px-YemeniJew1914.jpg 2x" data-class="mw-file-element"> </a><figcaption>Yemeni Jew wearing tallit</figcaption></figure> On the fast day of <a href="/wiki/Tisha_B%27Av" title="Tisha B'Av">Tisha B'Av</a>, different customs prevail. <a href="/wiki/Ashkenazi" class="mw-redirect" title="Ashkenazi">Ashkenazim</a> and some <a href="/wiki/Sephardim" class="mw-redirect" title="Sephardim">Sephardim</a> do not wear a tallit gadol during the morning (<a href="/wiki/Shacharit" title="Shacharit">Shacharit</a>) service; at the afternoon service (<a href="/wiki/Mincha" title="Mincha">Mincha</a>), those who wear a tallit gadol make the blessing on fringes then.<a href="#cite_note-21">[20]</a> Other <a href="/wiki/Sephardi" class="mw-redirect" title="Sephardi">Sephardim</a> (following the <a href="/wiki/Kabbalah" title="Kabbalah">Kabbalah</a> and the prevailing custom (<a href="/wiki/Minhag" title="Minhag">Minhag</a>) for Jerusalem) wear the tallit at Shacharit as usual.<a href="#cite_note-22">[21]</a> The Kabbalists considered the tallit as a special garment for the service of <a href="/wiki/God" title="God">God</a>, intended, in connection with the tefillin, to inspire awe and reverence for God at prayer.<a href="#cite_note-23">[22]</a> The tallit gadol is worn by worshipers at the <a href="/wiki/Jewish_services" class="mw-redirect" title="Jewish services">morning prayer</a> on weekdays, Shabbat, and holy days.

Such garments were large, white and rectangular and used as a garment, shawl and burial shroud. These four-cornered garments are suitable for the climate of West Asia. On hot days the garment could be draped around the body and head to provide cover from the sun or just bunched up on the shoulders for later evening use; the evenings can be dramatically cool and the garment could be draped around the neck and shoulders like a scarf to provide warmth. Jews became at risk of losing this mitzvah when four cornered garments went out of fashion and became impractical for everyday wear. And so, a poncho-like vest undergarment was developed as a practical solution to continue following the Torah commandment. This garment is most commonly known as tzitzit, but is also referred to as arba kanfot ("four corners"), or tallit katan ("small tallit").<a href="#cite_note-24">[23]</a> Jewish men wear the talit katan every day, most commonly worn under their clothing with the tzitzit knots hanging out. Some Jewish men prefer to tuck in their tzitzit to avoid drawing unwanted attention and/or for practical reasons. The tallit gadol became almost exclusively worn only for morning prayers and rarely outside. <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Isra%C3%ABls-A_Jewish_Wedding-1903.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><noscript><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/79/Isra%C3%ABls-A_Jewish_Wedding-1903.jpg/220px-Isra%C3%ABls-A_Jewish_Wedding-1903.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="205" class="mw-file-element" data-file-width="1501" data-file-height="1402"></noscript><span class="lazy-image-placeholder" style="width: 220px;height: 205px;" data-src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/79/Isra%C3%ABls-A_Jewish_Wedding-1903.jpg/220px-Isra%C3%ABls-A_Jewish_Wedding-1903.jpg" data-width="220" data-height="205" data-srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/79/Isra%C3%ABls-A_Jewish_Wedding-1903.jpg/330px-Isra%C3%ABls-A_Jewish_Wedding-1903.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/79/Isra%C3%ABls-A_Jewish_Wedding-1903.jpg/440px-Isra%C3%ABls-A_Jewish_Wedding-1903.jpg 2x" data-class="mw-file-element"> </a><figcaption>A Jewish newlywed couple endowed with tallit</figcaption></figure> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Weddings">Weddings</h3> <a role="button" href="/w/index.php?title=Tallit&action=edit&section=7" title="Edit section: Weddings" class="cdx-button cdx-button--size-large cdx-button--fake-button cdx-button--fake-button--enabled cdx-button--icon-only cdx-button--weight-quiet "> edit </a> </div> In many Sephardic and German Jewish communities, the groom traditionally wears a tallit gadol under the <a href="/wiki/Chuppah" title="Chuppah">chuppah</a> (wedding canopy); in many cases, he will wrap it around the bride as well during the ceremony.
