The Importance of Purchasing Mehudar Tefillin
The Mitzvah of Tefillin – “And you shall bind them as a sign upon your hand and they shall be for frontlets between your eyes” – is a central pillar in the service of G-d for every Jew. Putting on Tefillin daily expresses the acceptance of the yoke of Heaven’s kingdom in heart and thought, and the constant connection to Torah and the Creator of the world.

Because of its holiness and importance – it is appropriate to enhance it as much as possible.

What is special about mehudar Tefillin?
Mehudar Tefillin are Tefillin made with careful hand work, according to all halachic details, while maintaining the highest level of kashrut. One of the prominent points of enhancement among them is:

✦ Precise Square Base
The box of the Tefillin, both for the head and for the hand, includes a “base” – a lower protrusion through which the strap passes. In most simple Tefillin, this base is not square and not precisely aligned with the body of the box. In mehudar Tefillin, careful attention is paid to the precise square of the base, properly aligned with the rest of the box – which expresses both halachic and aesthetic completeness.

The Rambam and Shulchan Aruch emphasize the importance of the square of the boxes and include the base as part of the overall structure. A precise square base is a sign of full attention to every single detail.

Additional advantages of mehudar Tefillin:
✔ Selected leather – without holes or blemishes

✔ Professional hand work – separated boxes according to all details

✔ Mehudar writing – by a certified Sofer in known traditional script

✔ Double checking – of the writing, of the leather, and of the structure of the box

✔ Shin hand-drawn, cord passing between the boxes, black straps according to law

✔ Attention to all stringencies – Sephardic, Ashkenazi, and Chabad as needed
