Tzitzit
Question
Hello, honorable Rabbi,
I saw that there are numbered sizes for tzitzit, but I don’t understand it—1–8. I only understand L, XL, etc. Maybe you could please help me?
Answer
I’m not worthy of this. I looked through the books and found no solution to this grave riddle. There is no choice but to measure or ask the sellers.
By the way, I’m much stronger when it comes to shoe sizes. If you’d like recommendations for restaurants, basketball games, and the like, it’s quite possible my abilities would be better put to use there.
Discussion on Answer
🙂
I asked, and it depends, but 5 is M,
6 is L,
7 is XL.
Hope this helps if people ask in the future 🙂
