לח  דַּבֵּר אֶל-בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל, וְאָמַרְתָּ אֲלֵהֶם, וְעָשׂוּ לָהֶם צִיצִת עַל-כַּנְפֵי בִגְדֵיהֶם, לְדֹרֹתָם; וְנָתְנוּ עַל-צִיצִת הַכָּנָף, פְּתִיל תְּכֵלֶת. 38 ‘Speak unto the children of Israel, and bid them that they make them throughout their generations locks in the hem of their garments, and that they put with the locks of the hem a ribbon of Tyrian Puprle
לט  וְהָיָה לָכֶם, לְצִיצִת, וּרְאִיתֶם אֹתוֹ וּזְכַרְתֶּם אֶת-כָּל-מִצְו‍ֹת יְהוָה, וַעֲשִׂיתֶם אֹתָם; וְלֹא-תָתוּרוּ אַחֲרֵי לְבַבְכֶם, וְאַחֲרֵי עֵינֵיכֶם, אֲשֶׁר-אַתֶּם זֹנִים, אַחֲרֵיהֶם. 39 And it shall be unto you for a lock, that ye may look upon it, and remember all the commandments of YHWH, and do them; and that ye go not about after your own heart and your own eyes, after which ye use to go astray;

Tzitzit: Many Translations say Fringes or Tassel

Strong’s Concordance

#6734 צִיצִת  = Tassel, Lock

Tzitzit Means…. Tassel (is a Knotted Fringe), or Lock

 

Let’s look into more scriptures to get a better understanding of the word Tzitzit…

Ezekiel 8:3

And he put forth the form of an hand, and took me by a lock (Tzitzit) of mine head;

Using the Tzitzit Hair as a Reference, a Tzitzit needs to be Twisted or Locked or Knotted.  The Scripture doesn’t specify how it is to be locked or how to make the Tzitzit.

According to Numbers 15:38,  Tzitzits are just locks of Fabric, as your hair can be locked. It doesn’t specify a style or number of twists nor number of knots on the Tzitzit. The more twists and knots you add, the fancy it is of course.

I am going to show you how to make your own Tzitzits and how you can change the style and look of them.  Keep a look out in the next post.

JEW-WISH STYLE TZITZIT

The Jew-wish people by their own Tradition, which are claimed to have been passed down orally by Moses to them with specific instructions to make their Tzitzit in this fashion…. t3 t5

However, it does not need to be in this fashion.  Anyone who does it this way is just simply obeying their rules and interpretation.  Although the Tzitzits worn by the Jew-wish people are correctly locked, it isn’t placed throughout the “Kanaph” of the Garment, which makes them incomplete by virtue of lack of sufficient amounts of Tzitzits.  If you wear JEW-WISH  style Tzitzits you just need more of them throughout the whole hem of the garment or add additional knotted, locked or twisted fringes throughout the hem of the garment.
