Touching the Hem Jesus and the Prayer Shawl by John D. Garr PH.D.
Touching the Hem is one of the Golden Key Living Emblems series. Featuring in-depth analysis of the material objects that reveal God's will for both Jews and Christians. biblical emblems were designed to emphasized divine truths and to call believers to remembrance of their responsibility to worship and honor their Creator. Failure to understand the implications of these important symbols has robbed millions of Christians of vital, spiritually enriching information. This book presents these vivid images of a rich Hebraic tradition: Jewish traditions about the mantle that Jesus wore, the powerful images associated with the hem of the garment, lessons for Christians from Jewish prayers and blessings, why the sick wanted to touch the hem of Jesus' garment.
