<div class="itemcontent"><p><a title="Vayomer" href="http://www.aishdas.org/asp/audio/vayomer.mp3">This week’s <em>shiur</em></a> rounds out our discussion of <em>Shema</em> with the third paragraph. In the <a title="Ve'ahavta" href="http://www.aishdas.org/asp/2006/11/veahavta.shtml">first paragraph</a> we accept Hashem as King, and that evolves to the theme of <a title="Vehayah" href="http://www.aishdas.org/asp/2006/11/vehayah-im-shamoa.shtml"><em>Vehayah im Shomo’ah</em></a>, accepting the King’s commandments. Beliefs motivate action. In <em>parashas tzitzis</em> we look at how <em>mitzvos</em> reciprocate by shaping our minds.</p>

The meaning of parashas tzitzis is studied by comparing it to the other phrasing of the same mitzvah “gedilim ta’aseh lekha –you shall make cords for yourself on the four corners of your kesus (covering).” How do gedilim differ from tzitzis? Why is one on your beged and the other on your kesus? Why four corners? Why eight ends (four strings, folded over)? How does all this connect to the notions of not straying after our eyes and hearts, or with remembering the Exodus? How can we actually feel what it means to remember yetzi’as Mitzrayim?
