Zákonníci a farizeji nosili veľmi široké modlitebné remienky, aby každému bolo na prvý pohľad zrejmé, že práve oni si veľmi vážia Zákon.Podľa iného predpisu (Nm 15, 38–39 a Dt 22, 12) zasa nosili strapce na štyroch rohoch plášťa, aby si pri pohľade na ne spomenuli, že sú príslušníkmi vyvoleného národa, ktorý dostal od Boha Zákon.
