Tefillin
Morning · 3 min
Tefillin are two small leather boxes containing passages from the Torah, bound to the arm (opposite the heart) and the head each weekday morning. The mitzvah comes straight from the Shema itself: "bind them as a sign upon your hand". Tefillin are not worn on Shabbat or Yom Tov.
Tefillin is a mitzvah done with the body. Binding the arm and head for a few minutes each morning is a physical statement that strength, feeling and thought all point at something higher. Many men who do nothing else Jewishly during the day keep tefillin as their one daily anchor.
Tefillin is a card on your daily list in Orah. Tap it to see the full text and today's insight, tick it when you're done, and watch your ring fill. Each completion keeps your streak alive and adds real, donor-funded money to your Mitzvah Wallet to give to charity. Friends can see it in the feed and send a Shkoyach.
