zizit , auch: zizith

Men in zizit (fringed scarves worn to remind them of their religious responsibilities) run on treadmills and often form a minyan of 10 or more men for a communal evening prayer before going home.

When they bound their phylacteries (tfillin) to their hands and foreheads, donned the ritual fringed garments (zizit) and nailed the mezuzah containing the words of Shema over their doors, as Deuteronomy prescribed, they should not try to explain these obscure and peculiar practices.
