12You are to make tassels on the four corners of the cloak you wear.
“A symbolic meaning is given to these tassels in Numbers 15:37-41, namely that they are a reminder to Israel to keep God’s law.” (Thompson)
These verses may seem strange to us but the Lord wanted separation. To be different than the rest of the world.
But look what the Scribes and Pharisee’s did!
Matthew 23: 5All their deeds are done for men to see. They broaden their phylacteries and lengthen their tassels.
They broaden and lengthen their tassels to “look” more spiritual!
Christ wants us to stand out from the rest of the world also, so they know you are His.
But are you doing it to look spiritual?
Being humble is to be of Christ.
Blessings
