- Tassels? Numbers 15. (What Most Pastors won't Tell You). The tassels, also called Tsitsits in Hebrew. Many Passages that you already know about will come alive to you. You will understand this topic that is hardly ever talked about from the Hebrew culture. Watch this short video... You'll be very excited you did.
**** Small Correction.... It probably should read YHWH, not JHWH. That first letter is the "Jot" that Jesus spoke about as not passing from the Torah.
Do you know for sure that if you were to die you would go to heaven? This is the most important topic. To go to heaven you need to be perfect, but no one is. So, there is only one Solution. Jesus Christ. He took your sin, your shame, your guilt and your punishment. He died on the cross and rose from the dead. He said that if you trust Him as the One, Who died on the cross for your sins, or as your Savior. You will have eternal life and you will go to heaven. Do this right now....
Then once that is settled, watch the videos, like, subscribe, and comment. :-)

We are still supposed to wear them if we are properly covenanted with Yahweh. It's not just given to the Jews to wear, but for anyone grafted in through Romans 11 and Ephesians 2. Shalom from Lutzville South Africa 🇿🇦
Shalom, Well said, Praise Yahweh.
@@jessie5334 Great stuff. Hopefully you are also wearing them with pride
Wow, yes, that's a very Dutch name from South Africa. That's a great idea to wear them now. I can't see anything wrong with being reminded that we are under the authority of God's Word!
Thank you so much, Jessie!!!
@@TheKeesBoerMinistryChannel You have the right attitude my brother. May you be blessed. Yes it was originally spelt van Wijk
God has surely given us many clues of his inspired word! I even watched a Hebrew scholar revealing that after the Hebrew equivalent of ‘T’ in Genesis, every 50th letter written after that ends up as the word ‘TORH’ or Torah in English. There are even more examples of this. More videos like this are needed to show the lost world that there is so much evidence that God loves us and hasn’t abandoned us. I was blessed by this presentation. Thank you.
Yes, there is SO much in the Hebrew. In Genesis 1:1, the word Aleph - Tov is found. The first letter and the last letter of the Hebrew alphabet. Like Rev. 22:13, the Alpha and Omega. The first and last letter!!! Jesus Christ.
Upon meditating on the hidden words within the first hebrew word recorded in Scriptures, “Bereshit”, (‘in the beginning’) many truths are discovered and we see God’s whole plan of Salvation is laid out in this one word.
The Word Bereshit (בראשׁית) in Hebrew letters is: Tav, Yud, Shin, Alef, Resh, Beit (Hebrew is read right to left.) Investigate the pictographs of these letters.
Praise YAH!
God bless you man of God,,I TRULY ENJOY & RECEIVE THIS MESSAGE IN JESUS MIGHTY NAME,,AMEN 🙏🏿
Thank you so much! I'm so glad you liked this video! May God bless you!!!
Interesting 🤔 never knew this before! Thank you Kees for sharing 👏🏽👏🏽
Thank you so much. I hope all is well with you. Are you still collecting cacti... I put a Lithops in one of my recent videos... I forgot which one and maybe not even posted yet... :-)
So cool! Thanks for teaching me something new again 😊👊🏼
My pleasure!! I'm really glad you like it!!! May God bless you!!!
This was very interesting. I learned something new. Thanks.
I'm really glad it was a blessing to you!!!
I understand now the point why David did so. Thank you, Brother. Regards, Wiseman.
Yes, these little details can really bring the Stories come alive!!!
Es increíble que cada detalle de una prenda en la época de Jesús tenía un gran significado como los sit sit😊
Si, no ve.... Me gusta mucho estudiar eso....
Amazing! I love studying these details and I studied Hebrew. Too bad so much of this is missing in many church teachings ❤Thank you

since the Torah does not specify number of threads or knots or any other design, or even length, I buy some wool or thread and cut a few strands of about 15 inches long. I fold them in half make mine with only one loop knot. Afterword, I trim or cut them off at about 4 to 6 inches length, for belt loops.
Yes, I think that would follow that Command. However the Command is specifically for Jewish men. I don't think that God forbids it for others.... There are a lot of traditions with following the Torah, that are written in the Talmud... Like the tzitzits, there are even rules what to do when someone goes to the restroom, etc.... A lot of rules... But if you just want to follow the Torah, then it would be fine. Are you Jewish by chance?
Yes, it is amazing.
I was amazed to learn it too!!!
Since the written Torah does not specify that the rest of the tassels must be white, I use a few white threads, and since people are not sure of the shade of blue, some translations even use the word "Purple" , So I use one strand of blue and one strand of purple.
I think it depends a lot on the sect of Judaism one is following. I have just bought them on line. But part of that is that most of my mission work is here in South America. And I would have no idea how to buy them here. :-)
Thank you so much. I really enjoyed your comment!

This is the first video of yours that I've watched. You handled this very well. I am Torah observant follower of Yehushua and I currently only wear one. Perhaps i should reconsider and add the remaining three. Thoughts?
Hi, I've been thinking about this question. So, I'm sorry I took a while to reply. But I wanted to do justice to this great question!
There are a couple of things to consider within the Torah... Not all of the Commands are for everyone. For instance there are Commands that relate just to women. A man wouldn't obey those... Or Commands, that deal what a thief should do. Well, of course if one hasn't stolen anything, than they would not have to obey that Command.
Now with the Command or a better Word Instruction of the tassels, It was specifically given to the men of the Nation of Israel. (See Numbers 15:38) Jewish Rabbis would not want gentiles to obey those Commands, because they might not do This properly. That's what they say...
I believe that one has freedom in this. If a gentile wants to put on tassels to remind themselves to obey God's Word, I have no problem with It.
Then comes the part as an example what the rabbis would have difficulty with. Deuteronomy 22:12 teaches us that the tassels should be on the four corners.... i.e. four tassels... That's why doing something different would cause a concern with Jewish rabbis...
Now to take that even further.... If one were to obey the oral law too, then there are a bunch of instructions there, like what one should do when a person goes to the bathroom... and many other instructions... Jesus obeyed a lot of the Oral Law, but not always... Thus there were conflicts between Jesus and the Pharisees, who did obey the oral law...
I'll throw this out finally... (maybe I should do another video on the tassels). Paul was a disciple of Gamaliel. That's not a small little thing. Gamaliel was the grandson of Hillel and is known as one of the biggest teachers and Rabbis in the history of Israel. It's like saying that one studies golf under Tiger Woods! It's not easy to become a disciple of Gamaliel... A disciple there must have had the entire Old Testament or Tanagh memorized. Even after his third missionary journey, he called himself a Pharisee of Pharisees.... He knew the Torah inside and out... So, now the question would be: "Why did he never in any of his Epistles tell any gentile to wear tassels??? Maybe he did, but under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, It was never recorded...
But I think you have freedom here... I.e. you can wear one or all four... But if you want to be totally Torah observant, you want to wear four... (And I'm memorizing the Book of Deuteronomy right now, so I do love the Torah (Psalm 119:97,98))
@TheKeesBoerMinistryChannel I'm very appreciative of the thought that you put into this reply. It's an odd line between wanting to please the Father and wrestling with thousands of years of, well, challenging opinions. Thank you for helping me navigate this.
@@TheKeesBoerMinistryChannel Only 271 of the 613 are observable. We can't assume Paul left out anything for any reason. For example, moving the Sabbath to the 1st day of the week would have not been written about, because changing it from Saturday was unfathomable.
The 12 Apostles (Matthias replaced Judas) consulted with the Holy Spirit to lessen the burden for new believers (milk). The desire to live in the image of Messiah compels people to take on these (not so heavy) burdens to please and grow closer to God. Glory to glory.
"It is to be a tzitzit for you to look at and thereby remember all of the LORD's commandments and obey them, so that you won't go around wherever your own heart and eyes lead you to [defile] yourselves, but it will help you remember and obey all My commandments and be holy for your God." Num 15:39-40
I like wearing these more than a cross. I put them on the corner of my belt loops (outer garment).
Yes, they are to be a rememberance to obey the Torah.... The Command was specifically given to the Israelites in Numbers 15:38. :-)
@@TheKeesBoerMinistryChannel And the sojourners who aligned themselves with Israelites (there was such a mix of culture).
Kept going over this and keep remembering the Moabite Ruth turning and saying, “Your God will be my God and your people will be my people.” I truly believe in this transformation and have desired to become a slave to the patterns Messiah showed us.
Everyone should examine themselves, for Messiah did not teach on many Torah subjects that he was already living.
*This is not a salvation issue and should not be given as a stumbling block for young believers.*
That is really helpful. Thanks. I used to really like a preacher named Rob Bell he would bring a lot of Jewish cultural facts and history into his messages...then he went nuts and became a heretic. :(
It's very sad what happened to him. Though I don't know what happened there... I somehow got deceived....
plse send me this teaching
Which teaching?
Im trying to find the value of Babel tower in Hebrew. I used Google translate to translate Babel tower to Hebrew. Here is it מגדל בבל and on Wikipedia it's written as מִגְדַּל בָּבֶל. Please want to know the numerical value. Thanks for your time
This is a great reference chart on that:

...It is with great earnest, that I endeavor to walk in the ancient paths and with the three(3) references given,...I just don't see the elaborate make up of the fringe or tassel as you illustrate.
Why is it so demanding that we go beyond five simple white cords and one blue?
Another tradition perhaps?
Yes, definitely another oral law... We can only base it on what is in the written Law or the Torah.
sir do you keep Torah???
Well the Torah has 613 Commandments or Mitzvots. I'm not Jewish. I'm Dutch. So, the Commandments don't apply to everyone. For instance, if you don't steal, you wouldn't have to keep the Commandment on how to return the stolen goods. So, the One of Numbers 15:37-39 of the tassels is specifically given to Jewish males. Most of the Torah isn't really applicable to Gentile believers in Christ. Though It is extremely important to understand It, in order to understand the Bible.
How I can get this teaching?
Which teaching?
Read the Torah
Yes, but you did not mention the blue cord and why " religious" Jews don't wear them...
Would you elaborate a little bit. I would love to learn more.
@@TheKeesBoerMinistryChannel the cords are supposed to be white, but one chord is supposed to br sky blue.
The purpose of the sky blue chord is to remind the people to keep God's laws.
Originally, on door posts, were the ten commandments. The rabbis didn't want the people ONLY to think about God's laws, but also their laws. So the rabbis, changed the words posted to door from the 10 commandments to the introductory paragraph before the ten commandments.
So, the same logic can be applied to the blue cord. The rabbis don't want that you remember ONLY God's laws, so they removed the blue chord. What they "say" is that we are not sure which shade of blue was used during the times of Moses, therefore we don't want to make a mistake.... but this is clearly a desception.
@@drorbenami4827 Observant Jews stick with white because they not are completely sure of the exact color and don't want offend the King of the Universe. Some say the snails produce the color. However, the only byproduct of a non-kosher animal is honey from the bee. The cuttlefish (kosher scales) has a blue dye, which some believe is the original color.
The true purpose is to continually remember to follow the commandments. My tzitzit has a dark blue dye. I'll post the bible verse for you.
@@girardedward Since the written Torah does not specify that the rest of the tassels must be white, I use a few white threads, and since people are not sure of the shade of blue, some translations even use the word "Purple" , So I use one strand of blue and one strand of purple.
@@drorbenami4827 =
The tzitzit or tassels are you refer to them, were not just for the Tribe of Yehudah / Jews, who are only Echad / One tribe of Twelve. They are for Anyone who holds to His Commandments, as it is clearly written to do. Yeshua did not do away with any commandments as He clearly states, and no where in Scripture does it state tzitzit are no longer to be worn, and Yeshua did not take it to the cross. As per @dietervanwyk2155 comments below, anyone who is grafted into Spiritual Israel, is to keep His Commandments and have the testimony of Yeshua. שׁלום וברכה
In Numbers 15:38, It tells us clearly that these tassels are for Israelite men to remind them to obey the Torah. Not all of the Torah is for everyone. Even during the time of the Torah.... Yes, Yeshua did not do away with the Law for everyone. It would be good to read the Book of Collossians.
Sorry but i think you totally misunderstand Scripture. Hi Word has not changed from the Beginning, and Yeshua upheld and taught All His Fathers Torah, prophets and writings. Paul did not start another religion, he obeyed the commandments of Yeshua's Father, just as all people who believed in Yeshua did. He who says he knows the Father but doesn't keep His commandments, is a liar and the Truth is not in him. He who turns his ear from hearing the Torah, even his prayer is an abomination. The Torah is as valid today as it was 2000 years ago. Yeshua did not give His life so we could carry on sinning, because of some mixed up western church theology that we are under "grace" so we do not have to keep the Torah. That is utter garbage, and the teachings of Marcion and Rome. Why do you think Satan is called the "Lawless One"? Simple really, because he is lawless, meaning Torah-less. The Torah / His Commandments is what we uphold and teach once we are engrafted into the Spiritual House of Israel. We keep the commandments as they show we are loyal and want to live according to Yeshua's Fathers ways, and not the ways of men.
Wearing the tzitzit is for all people who adhere to His commandments and have the Testimony of Yeshua. They were not done away with at the cross. That is just pure eisegesis.
@@TheKeesBoerMinistryChannel = Both the Catholic church and Protestant churches have screwed up Yeshua's teachings so badly, that most people do not understand Yeshua's purpose and message. Yeshua had to do what he did so that all those who kept Torah before and after his death, would be saved. Matthew 19;17 is and remains a first step, including Acts 8;37-38. That is what Yeshua and the Apostles taught for Salvation. There is no mention that Yeshua's Apostles ever taught that salvation was by believing in the death and resurrection. Galatians 2;14 shows that Paul knows and inadvertently admits that Peter and the Apostles are forcing the Gentiles to "live like Jews" for salvation.
@@user-xs3jw3wy8b = I agree with your position on the tzitzit and that Exodus 31:14 means that there is no salvation for any in the Sunday church who do not obey 4th, the "Saturday" Sabbath. (see also Luke 16:17 Torah is still in effect)
Did you read Deuteronomy 28!?
Yes, many times... As a matter of fact, we're memorizing the Book of Deuteronomy right now.... Were you referring to something specific?
@@TheKeesBoerMinistryChannel it's a great book. I just think it's amazing how many Christians read that book and continue to ignore that there is an entire people group today that perfectly fit the description within it. Referring to the curses listed there in Deuteronomy 28.
Tassels, or tzit tzit, are said in the Bible to be blue. Not blue and white. And certainly not white. To me, any white is like adding in leaven.
The blue is supposed to remind us of the floor of heaven. The floor of heaven is not said to be blue and white or white, just blue.
I love this question.... In Judaism, the color combination depends on the sect of Judaism that one follows... You might check for more detail with your local synagogue.... Probably not today.... It's the Shabbath...
@@TheKeesBoerMinistryChannel I am a Hebrew roots, Christian. I don’t go by traditions of men. I go strictly by the Bible. The Bible says blue. I don’t need some rabbi, or for that matter, any Christian pastor, to come along later and say that he knows better.
Like mainstream Christianity, modern Judaism, though really, this has been true for millennia, is constantly changing with the scriptures say.
But in the Bible, we are told not to add to or subtract from what is in there.
@@loricalass4068 = I have always thought that tassels were made of many threads, but you have an interesting interpretation which I have not seen before. So if a tassel can consist of only 1 thread than that tread would be blue. Thankyou for your comment, it is a point to ponder.
You do not need to be a Jew to obey the laws of the Tora.
That's true.... But in Numbers 15:38, It says: Speak unto the children of Israel. So, the Command or Mitzvod is specifically given to the Hebrews. There are 613 Commandments in the Torah. But they don't all apply to everyone. For instance, there are commandments what to do if you have stolen something. Well, if you haven't then it wouldn't apply to you. So, at least always look at the context of the Commandment. Of course then the Gentiles are given other Commandments. See Acts 15.
@@TheKeesBoerMinistryChannel The "Children of Isreael that came out of Egypt was a multitude of different people that are made up of gentiles and not just Jews. So those 613 laws are not done away with they are just not applicable as we do not have a temple or you have to be a Levi or a Priest. The gentiles are told their minimum what they should do and it is also said that in the time of Moses they also went to his synagogs. What did they teach? Tora.
Sry sir but you who do not keep the instructions of Yahweh should not attempt to teach them. Anyone who says they have come to know Him yet does not keep His commandments is a liar and Yeshua is not in him.
Well, thank you so much! I appreciate your comment on the video! It's amazing how much you know about me from just watching this video! Incredible!!!
@TheKeesBoerMinistryChannel you handled that well. No one benefits from that sort of blustering. We can disagree like adults.
I see what you did there. More importantly, Yaweh saw what you did. Numbers 15:39 ...commandments of the LORD...
Not...
...commandments of the Torah...
And then you misinterpret what the Torah is as JUST the first five books.
Needs to be ALL of Yah's commandments.
Are you saying that the oral Torah is also part of the God's Revelation?
@TheKeesBoerMinistryChannel
The Almighty has shared His commandments throughout the Scripture. They are not contained in the first five books. We are commanded to keep His way. Reducing it to what Judaism thinks is "Torah" does not honor His way.
Time stamp 4:00 > That is NOT correct... There are NO "J" Letters or Sounds in Hebrew... The spelling comes out YOD HEY VAV HEY YHWH in English... "...יהוה...", And in Greek it was an IOTA, EYE OH TAH as There are NO "J" letters or sounds in Greek either... "...G2503
ἰῶτα
iōta
ee-o'-tah
Of Hebrew origin (the tenth letter of the Hebrew alphabet); “iota”, the name of the eighth letter of the Greek alphabet, put (figuratively) for a very small part of anything... The word "JOT" is added by the Translator... and the correct English would be the word "dot"...
Mistakes like this are exactly what is wrong with The Understanding of Believers of Today, They are being misled by others who do not Know or Understand what was said... Get a Strong's Concordance, or a Thayer's... Look up the words for yourselves... Study to show yourself approved and these types of mistakes will not make you "stumble" at the WORDS... "...1Pe 2:7 Unto you therefore which believe he is precious: but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner,
1Pe 2:8 And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed..."
Ok, so you're basically saying that the YOD is "Y" not "J".... Am I understanding you correctly?
@@TheKeesBoerMinistryChannel Yes, I am... But as I mentioned "Look it up" my words mean nothing...
Unfortunately, misunderstood commentary by the authors twists understandings. Yod is the letter Y. We don't know 100% if the if there is a modification to the V to make it W or even U. The Way needs to be studied diligently. Appreciate your deep insight on this topic. I'm not saying His Name, because he told Moses not to worry about it. I had the wool pulled over my eyes many years, until I decided to just do exactly what Jesus "Yeshua" from "Yehoshua" from "Y'Hoshea [lit. God's Salvation] would do.
