Description
Why does the Torah enjoin us regarding techelet? Because techelet resembles sapphire, and the Tablets were made of sapphire, to tell you that as long as Bnei Yisrael gaze upon this techelet they are reminded of what is inscribed on the Tablets and observe the commandments, therefore it is written, ‘And you shall see it [the techelet string] and remember all of the commandments of G-d and you shall do them.’ – Mishnat Rabbi Eliezer, Chap. 14
Thick Niputz Lishmah tzitzit dyed with Murex trunculus by the Ptil Tekhelet Assocation. Authorized dealer.
Which set you choose (Raavad or Rambam) depends on how you plan to tie the tzitzit (or have us do the tying – scroll to bottom of this page).
To tie according to the Vilna Gaon, Sefer HaChinuch, Amram Gaon or the Raavad, normally you would choose Raavad strings. This set comes with three white strings and one blue string for each corner. To tie according to R. Schachter, you’ll need two sets.
To tie according to the Rambam or the Arizal, normally you would choose Rambam strings. This Ptil Tekhelet set comes with three white strings and one half white/half blue string for each corner.
Question: I’d like to order a set of Ptil Tekhelet Niputz Lishmah Tzitzit Strings and have you tie them onto a tallit or tallit katan. Is that something you can do?
Answer: Yes, certainly. You would (1) add to your cart the tallit/tallit katan and select a tying option, then (2) add the strings to your cart.
