I already asked this before. But there was something I forgot to include in my question. I’m asking it again with what I forgot to include.
If someone has lied in the past and has not repented for it, but this person is a good person who is good to others, has not told any kind of lies since then, repented for all other sins he/she comitted, and has always done the right thing for most of his/her life, will G-d forgive that person? If not, what will G-d do to that person when he/she dies?
There are no hard and fast rules about white shirts. In general, a white shirt is considered to be a modest but respectable garment, and a person should wear clothing that is respectable.
Also, part of the day is spent standing in prayer in front of the Creator, and this certainly warrants respectable attire.
In any case, the main thing is not the external garments, but rather the spiritual ones, namely, a person’s thought, speech, and deed. Physical clothing is only a means to the end, the goal being purity of spiritual garments.
