And when Israel say the Shm’a, then surely [Var. the Masters of] the ḥayot lower their wings. In which place? In the ‘wings’ of precept, of which it is stated: (Deut. 22:12)... upon the four corners of your garment, with which you cover yourself, – which is like the coat of the ephod priestly garment, upon which are bells and pomegranates, corresponding to the knots and ties of tzitzit, while the edges of the coat correspond to ‘the wings of mitzvah (precept)’.
And these five knots, correspond to ‘Hear (Shm)’a O Israel Y”Y ELQYNU Y”Y’, which correspond to the 5 strings of David’s harp, which played by itself,xlviBT Berakhot 3b 13 ‘ties’ – as the numerical value of the word ‘one’∞eḥad (=13) – for the voice of song rises at the word eḥad (one).
