A consumer lately asked me about the distinction in between the Bnei Ohr Tallit and the Joseph's Coat Tallit. They had been each impressed by the exact same tallit, initially created by Reb Zalman (Rabbi Zalman M. Schachter-Shalom see B’nei Or Tallis: From nineteen fifties Eyesight to Contemporary Actuality). Later on the idea of a rainbow tallit grew to become well-liked and it is generally referred to by its authentic title, Bnei Ohr (or Bnei Or), and is occasionally known as merely a "Rainbow Tallit." The Gabrieli edition is known as Joseph's Coat.

Each are one hundred% wool, but the Bnei Ohr is produced out of a restricted weave, while the Joseph's Coat is produced utilizing thicker yarn that provides it much more texture and bulk. Also, each the corners and atara (neckband) vary. The Bnei Ohr Tallit has the Tzitzit Blessing embroidered on the atara and a Luchos Habris routine on the corners, whilst the Joseph's Coat Tallit employs the rainbow stripe motif on each the atara and the corners. An additional distinction is that the Bnei Ohr arrives with two colour choices (white with red, orange, yellow and blue stripes or white with blue, purple, red and burgundy), whilst the Joseph's Coat arrives in 4 variations (white, black, grey or blue track record). Lastly, the sizing is a little bit various. In the slim dimensions, the Joseph's Coat Tallit is twenty x eighty inches, in contrast to the Bnei Ohr Tallit, which actions 24 x seventy two inches. Other dimensions also differ a little bit in between the two variations of the rainbow tallit. A thirty-2nd video clip on the Joseph's Coat Tallit:
