The Tassels

³⁷ The Lord said to Moses, ³⁸ “Speak to the ·Israelites [^Lsons/^Tchildren of Israel] and tell them this: ‘·Tie several pieces of thread together and attach them to [Make fringes/tassels on] the corners of your clothes. Put a blue thread ·in each one of these tassels [^Lon the fringe/tassel of each corner]. Wear them ·from now on [^Lthroughout your generations]. ³⁹ You will have these ·tassels [fringes] to look at to remind you of all the Lord’s commands. Then you will obey them and not ·be disloyal by following what your bodies and eyes want [^Lfollow after your own heart or your own eyes to be unfaithful/play the harlot after them]. ⁴⁰ Then you will remember to obey all my commands, and you will be God’s holy people. ⁴¹ I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of Egypt to be your God [Ex. 12–15]. I am the Lord your God.’”
