THE TALLIT or PRAYER SHAWL: WARFAROLOGY 101 STRATEGIC PROPHETIC PERSONAL PRAYER CLOSET POWER ... The name TALLIT (also spelled tallis or talith) comes from the Hebrew words: tal meaning tent, and ith meaning little. THUS THE WORD TALLIT TRANSLATES as LITTLE TENT. Wow, just imagine that by wearing your TALLIT AKA PRAYER SHAWL, its Spiritually seen in the realm of the Spirit as literally as a LITTLE TENT, or TENT of TABERNACLE, or even better thatn this; just THINK OF IT AS, a MOBILE PRAYER CLOSET!!! Wow, this is so cool, LOVE IT! That should scare all HELL when under attack!. This reminds us of the instruction from our Messiah, Yeshua regarding prayer: “But you, when you pray, go into your room, and when you have shut your door, pray to your Father who is in the secret place; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly.” Matthew 6:6. WRAPPING: By wrapping yourself or covering your head with the tallit, you literally create a tent, a secret place to commune with God. “I will live in your tent forever and find refuge in the shelter of your wings.” Psalm 61:4. THE CROWN: The crown of the tallit, or the atarah in Hebrew, is worn around the neck or over the head, and is commonly a written form of the blessing that is traditionally spoken when donning the tallit. The traditional blessing written on the atarah is: “Blessed are You, Lord our God, Master of the Universe, who sanctifies us with His commandments and commanded us regarding the commandment of the tzitzit”. THE TZITZIT: The tzitzit is the fringe on the four corners of the garment. The corners read. “God will bring us to Zion joyfully.” THE TASSELS: In Numbers 15, it refers to as the tzitzit, or the fringe on all four corners of the tallit. These tassels represent the commandments and name of God; they are designed to serve as a constant reminder of God and our call to observe His instruction. “Speak to the children of Israel: Tell them to make tassels on the corners of their garments throughout their generations, and to put a blue thread* in the tassels of the corners. And you shall have the tassel, that you may look upon it and remember all the commandments of the LORD and do them, and that you may not follow the harlotry to which your own heart and your own eyes are inclined, and that you may remember and do all My commandments, and be holy for your God.”—Numbers 15:38-40. AS CLOTHING....needs have evolved over the centuries and garments with four corners were no longer part of the culture, the tallit (a rectangular piece of cloth) was designed to hold the tzitzit on its four corners. In the New Testament we see mention of Jesus wearing fringes (or tassels) in the below references: • Matthew 9:20 “And a woman who had been suffering from a hemorrhage for twelve years, came up behind Him and touched the fringe of His cloak” • Luke 8:44… “came up behind Him and touched the fringe of His cloak, and immediately her hemorrhage stopped.” • Matthew 14:36 …and they implored Him that they might just touch the fringe of His cloak; and as many as touched were cured.” • Mark 6:56 “Wherever He entered villages, or cities, or countryside, they were laying the sick in the market places, and imploring Him that they might just touch the fringe of His cloak; and as many as touched it were being cured.” Posted by: ApostolicProphet DeBrah Felder
