The Bendle or Bendel (from German-dialect 'Bändel' = high-German 'Bändchen' = diminutive of 'Band' = ribbon) is a belt primarily used to fulfill the Jewish commandment of separating the mind and the heart.[1] It is primarily used by Haredi/Hasidic Jews during prayer. The Bendle is also worn shortly before prayer just as a gartel is, the only exception is that the bendle is used by non-married Haredi Jews during prayer.[2] It does fulfill all the requirements of its cousin "the gartel" but, unlike the gartel which is worn on the outside of the bekishe or coat, the bendle is worn on the inside on top of the tallis kattan on the waist such as Chabad-Lubavitch, this can depend as certain Hasidic groups such as Toldos Aharon and the sub-group of Breslov the Na Nach wear their tallis on the outside of their shirt.
