TEFILLIN

Tefillin are special leather boxes with straps containing parchments
with passages from the Torah written by a skilled scribe, called a sofer .
Tefillin are worn during weekday morning services ( i.e. , not on Shabbat or festivals).
They are placed on one's head and arm, as the Torah says in Deuteronomy 6:8 :
"You shall bind them as a sign upon your hand, and
they should be for a reminder between your eyes."
Tefillin have a tremendous power to connect us to G‑d.
When purchasing a pair of tefillin, care should be taken to buy from a dependable store
in order to ensure that the tefillin are properly hand-written by a duly-qualified sofer.
Over the course of time, tefillin can begin to deteriorate.
Therefore, it is a good idea to have your tefillin checked at regular intervals.
