While first introduced here in Lev. 19:19, the prohibition of sha’atnez is more clearly defined later on in the Torah: “Do not wear sha’atnez — wool and linen together” (Deut. 22:11). Why does the Torah prohibit using wool and linen in the same article of clothing? Also, the special garments of High Priest contained both wool and linen. Why was he allowed to wear sha’atnez?
