The tzitzit reminds us of the mitzwot, the commandments. What is so exceptional about techelet? It was chosen above all other colours because it looked like the colour of the ocean, which resembled the colour of the sky, which was like the colour of the Throne of Glory that stood on a paving of sapphire.\u00a0Chazal, that\u00a0is <em>chachamim zichronam livracha<\/em>, our sages, may their memory be for a blessing, concluded from this that spiritual growth does not happen in one big step, but step by step, like the rungs of a ladder. On Sinai, our sages say, haShem bended the lower and the higher heavens and spread them over the mountain of Sinai during Matan Torah, the giving of the Torah. A kind of wormhole. But afterwards the heavens returned to their original positions, and we have to climb the ladder again to reach a higher level.
