Jesus Prayer Shawl
Posted on Wednesday, December 3, 2008 in Uncategorized

did Jesus wear a prayer shawl? where can I find it in the bible?
there are fringes on the shawl what do they represent?
The first answer is not correct – as a member of the house of David (a house of the tribe of Judah), Jesus was not of the priestly class (all of whom were of the tribe of Levi). Now, I can’t say that this excludes Jesus from wearing a prayer shawl with fringes – I don’t believe that such were restricted to the Levitical priesthood. However, there is no mention of Jesus wearing such in Scripture. He was most definitely not a priest according to the regulations of Mosaic Law.
