The mitzvah of tzitzit commands the Jewish people not to lust after our hearts and eyes and to be holy. Through a Rabbinic story concerning a man, whose tzitzit smack some sense into him as he is about to bed a prostitute, Rav Rahel Berkovits examines what one can learn about the Rabbis’ view of holiness within the sexual encounter.
