Hebrew Garments and the Restoration of Biblical Blue

 

Hebrew Garments and the Restoration of Biblical Blue

by Ezra HaLevi

(IsraelNN.com) After three days of Purim, Jerusalemites young and old came out of one more night of revelry as Tuesday Night Live focused on Biblical Jewish fashion.

The evening featured Reuven Prager, who pioneered a movement of producing Beged Ivri (Hebrew garb) for Jews who have returned to the Land of Israel, as well as Dr. Ari Greenspan, who has reintroduced the Biblical blue tekhelet dye, used to fulfill the mitzvah (commandment) of tzitzit (fringes placed on four-cornered garments).

Grund comment: see the video from the below link; presentation on clothing starts about the 14 minute mark.
