Atarah

Atarah means crown in Hebrew. The Atarah is a part of the Hebrew Tallit or known to Christians as the Prayer Shawl. The significance of the Atarah on the Tallit is that it is a reminder that we are blessed by God.

According to the Rabbis, the reason the Atarah was put on the Tallit is to beautify the head. The Tallit is worn as a covering on the head and the head is known in the Hebrew culture as the most "esteemed" part of the body. Many Rabbi's both current and past see the Atarah as an option you can use to beautify the Tallit with it on the collar or not.
