Reply To: Techeiles 🔵❎🐌☑️🐟

“well the shiltei giborim knew techeiles was from murex and still said it was blue.”

That doesn’t necessarily mean that he knew how to get blue dye from the murex. It could just be that he knew the murex was the chilazon (based on simanim etc.) and knew that Techeiles is blue, and therefore assumed that the murex trunculus gave a blue dye. Either he never had a murex trunculus, or if he did why did he not make Techeiles?
