Mitzvah #24 - Tefillin on ones head

It's a Mitzvah to put Tefillin on one's head.

The entire Tefillin must be placed above one's [original] hairline, and below the frontal ridge which is soft in babies.

Tefillin contain the 4 chapters in the Torah where Tefillin are written.

Applies to males, everywhere, every weekday.

Pasuk: "...it shall be as a sign between your eyes" (Devorim 6:8)

  1. Do you mean Tefillin on one's HEAD for the subject line?
