An embroidered cloth bag, white kippah and Nusach Sephard script, this black leather Tefillin set is fashioned in accordance with Sephardic tradition.
In Judaism, one who comes of age begins wearing Tefillin, meaning after the Bar Mitzvah. We perform this commandment by placing black boxes and straps on our arms and on our heads. When doning a tefillin, one must recite the Shema prayer, also inscribed on a Kosher parchment placed inside each tefillin box. Tefillin are worn during prayer services during the week. They are not worn during Shabbat or days in which work is forbidden, specifically Jewish holidays.
In terms of the wearing of Tefillin, the hand Tefillin are put on first. The box sits atop the bicep and the straps are wrapped around the arm seven times and around the hand. The head-Tefillin box sits above the forehead and the knot sits on the nape of the neck.
This set will be a magnificent Bar Mitzvah gift!
Please note that the Tefillin have been checked by a certified Rabbi to ensure they are Kosher.
Make sure to indicate whether you are left or right-handed so that the Tefillin straps will be tied correctly. The black Tefillin Boxes are embellished with golden swirling frame around the writing ‘Tefillin shel Rosh’ and ‘Tefillin shel Yad’. The black Tefillin bag is embroidered in white geometric pattern, complementing the white kippah in this set.
This set will be a wonderful Bar Mitzvah gift.
