TZITZIT or TSITSITH
There are two places in Scripture directing us to make tassels with a cord or string colored TEKELETH. This is a violet color-combination of blue and red. (Numbers 15:38, Dt. 22:12)
To remind us to do something, Yahuah ordered us to wear tassels on the 4 corners of our garments with a cord or thread of blue (technically violet) in each one (Numbers 15:38, Deut. 22:12).
The purpose of this observance is to remind the wearer to remember the TORAH, a Hebrew word meaning instruction. We are to observe and guard the TORAH always. The blue/violet cord is for the wearer, and Yahusha wore them in spite of the fact the Spirit of Yahuah fully indwelled His vessel. If you have resistance to the idea of wearing tsitsith for any reason, click this line.
Some go to the extent of requiring the tsitsith to be attached to another item we are to wear, however anything you are wearing already can serve to hold these reminders. When I first started, I rummaged through my wife's sewing materials and tied some blue strings to my belt loops. They were only 4 inches long, but I could see them, and knew what they represented. The Hebrew word for corners, edges, or borders (KANAF - H3671) refers to the extremities of the garment we wear. Safety pins can allow us to fasten our tsitsith easily, and remove them when we wash our item. Many wear a design with loops that can be attached to a belt or the belt loops of our clothing.
BLUE - VIOLET
Some have postulated how the color is symbolic of the pavement of sapphire (Ex. 24:10, Ez. 10:1) which is the foundation and surroundings of the THRONE of Yahuah, the Maker of Heaven and Earth. No one can approach the THRONE without having the Mashiak, and the TSITSIOTH (the plural form of tsitsith) indicate a feature of the wedding garments of the BRIDE (or wife, ASHAH) of Yahuah, known as the CHOSEN, or selected. Our wedding garments are termed "the righteousness of the qodeshim" (saints, called-out ones).
In relation to His wife Yisharal, He consistently refers to Himself as "Yahuah Alahim of Yisharal." Yisharal's obedience (righteousness) is referred to by way of a metaphor, "white robes" (as we see at Rev. 7:13).
Yahuah's marriage to Yisharal is an everlasting Covenant of LOVE (see Ps. 105:10, Ex. 31:13, 1Kings 8:23, Ez. 20:16-20, 2 Chron. 6:14, Ne. 1:5). The only ones who will enter the New Yerushaliyim in the world-to-come to eat from the Tree of Life will be Yisharal (Rev. 22), and those who have engrafted into Yisharal (Rom. 11), are Yisharal. The 12 gates into the city will be named for each of the 12 tribes of Yisharal - no Christian, Catholic, or Islamic gate will be there. Yahusha is the GATE for His sheep; and He is the LIVING WORD, or TORAH.
He is married to Yisharal. He has stated that if we (Yisharal) love Him, we are to observe His TORAH.
If we are in the Natsarim Writings (New Covenant or Re-Newed Covenant), He has circumcised our hearts with His TORAH, so that we LOVE to obey, and obey Him out of love - Jer. 31, Heb. 8, Heb. 10.
You can discern those who serve Yahuah by whether or not they observe His TORAH. The one whom you obey is the one whose servant you are.
Did Yahusha wear them? Yes, He did.
Yahusha wore them, and many were healed when they touched His tsitsith, recorded at Mt. 9:20, 14:36.
The prophecy of the healing through the tsitsith is seen at Malaki 4:2, where the Mashiak is described this way:
The word Servant instead of Sun is used in the BYNV used here:
"the Servant of righteousness will arise with healing in His wings." The tsitsith are known as "wings" among the Orthodox Yahudim. Ten men (the 10 lost tribes) of Yisharal (scattered among all languages and nations, Amus 9:9) will take hold of the tsitsith of ONE YAHUDI (Yahusha), and ask to go with Him - Zek. 8:23. Remember, there's nothing wrong with keeping and loving a Commandment.

Do You Resist Wearing Them?
The mind of the flesh is weak, and fails to see that obeying is like exercise.
We might rationalize that we have the Spirit of Yahusha indwelling our vessel (Paraklita,
Helper), so we can ignore an instruction given for keeping us on the right path.
So many things are done for the sake of tradition that are not found in
Scripture, so why not try on something that is found there?
If you feel any bitterness toward obeying, it's a sign you need to draw closer
to Yahuah, so He will draw closer to you. We are servants of the one we obey
(Romans 6:16), so always dismiss any bitterness toward showing Yahuah how much
you truly love Him: do what He says, and not what you want to do. He will feel
you love Him when you show it, and obeying is how your belief is perfected. brazilian hair uk
