The term is conventionally translated as "tribe" in English, although the divisions were not small isolated distinct ethnic groups in the modern sense of the term. Some English speaking Jewish groups view the pronunciation, English transcription and Hebrew spelling of the tribal names to be extremely important. The transcriptions and spellings are as follows: Reuben: ?????, Standard R?uven, Tiberian R?????n Simeon: ?????, Standard imon, Tiberian im?n Levi: ???, Standard Levi, Tiberian L?w Judah: ?????, Standard Y?huda, Tiberian Y?h???h Dan: ??, Standard Dan, Tiberian D?n Naphtali: ?????, Standard Naftali, Tiberian Nap?t?l Gad: ??, Standard Gad, Tiberian G??

Centuries later when fashions changed and garments no longer had four corners, the Jewish people created the prayer shawl (Tallit) so that they could fulfill Gods command to wear tzitzit. The prayer shawl has become the time-honored Jewish tradition of submission to Gods will revealed in his Word (the Torah). Powered by The free listing tool.
