Torah Sources
The obligation of tefillin is mentioned four times in the Torah: twice when recalling the The Exodus from Egypt:
- "And it shall be for a sign for you upon your hand, and for a memorial between your eyes, that the law of the LORD may be in your mouth; for with a strong hand did the LORD bring you out of Egypt."—Exodus 13:9
- "And it shall be for a sign upon your hand, and as totafot between your eyes; for with a mighty hand did the LORD bring us forth out of Egypt."—Exodus 13:16
and twice in the 1st two paragraphs of Kriat Shema:
- "And you shall bind them as a sign upon your arm, and they shall be as totafot between your eyes."—Deuteronomy 6:8
- "You shall put these words of mine on your heart and on your soul; and you shall tie them for a sign upon your arm, and they shall be as totafot between your eyes."—Deuteronomy 11:18
