Tallit

A tallit is a Jewish prayer shawl worn during morning prayers and special religious occasions. Typically made of wool or silk, it features fringes called tzitzit on its four corners, which are commanded by Jewish law to serve as a reminder of spiritual responsibilities. The tallit is often white with decorative stripes or embroidery, symbolizing purity and connection to tradition. Worn over the shoulders or head, it helps focus the wearer’s mind during prayer and signifies reverence for God. The tallit is both a personal and communal expression of faith and identity within Jewish practice.
