* fringes in the borders.
   The word {tzitzith} properly denotes an ornament resembling a
   flower.  From ver. 39, we learn that these were emblematical
   of the commands of God.  That there is any analogy between a
   fringe and a precept, it would be bold to assert; but when a
   thing is appointed to represent another, no matter how
   different, that first object becomes the legitimate
   representative or sign of the other.
