Does the rabbi take the tzitzit threads outside the pants?
And what does the Rabbi say about the claim that those who put it in their pants are like someone hiding a medal from the king and supposedly ashamed of being a servant of God?
And is there any point in spending the amount?

Yes, because that is the custom (at least among Ashkenazim). I think there is value in spending money to indicate your commitment to the mitzvot. But of course, there is no problem with someone who doesn’t spend money. If he knows for himself that he doesn’t spend money because of shame, then maybe he has a problem and it is better for him to spend money.

It is explained in the Shulchan Aruch 3 Ch. 11:11 and his son, that he should bring them out to fulfill the commandment, “And you saw him and remembered him, etc.”

Zil Keri is a great one. But as is known, they brought a dispute about the matter, and the custom of most Sephardim is not to remove them. The discussion was which of the customs to adopt, and therefore I used the reasoning that I used.

Why should we look for new reasons when the reason is explicit in the text and the Sephardic custom is only for reasons of acceptance (and not because the reasoning of Vereveim is incorrect). And there is a reply to this from Rabbi Yaakov Hillel Shlita in Responsa Yashav HaYa'im, which also states that according to the Arizal, they should be taken out.

Why not read what I explain before repeating and making it difficult?
There is a debate among customs. The question was whether it is still worth taking out the tzitzits to overcome the shame. So what should I write to him? “And did you see them”?
