Sforno on Numbers 15:39

Torah

39 โ€Ž[1] 'ื•ืจืื™ืชื ืื•ืชื• ื•ื–ื›ืจืชื ืืช ื›ืœ ืžืฆื•ืช ื”, you will be reminded that you are Gโ€™dโ€™s servants whose commandments you have accepted reinforced by oaths known as ืืœื” and ืฉื‘ื•ืขื”. This reminder will be due to your looking at the โ€œfringesโ€ that may be viewed as if their king had placed a stamp on your bodies confirming that the wearer is one of his subjects.

โ€Ž[2] This in turn will lead to your ceasing to follow the inclination of your hearts and eyes to indulge your diverse urges, originating in your bodies. Without these fringes as a constant reminder of your purpose on earth, you would be likely to fall prey to these urges inspired by the evil urge.

โ€Ž[3] This would eventually diminish the influence of your mind over your body to such an extent that it would lead to your premature death both in this world and in the hereafter.
