Proposal for Passage

I am doing a passage on Tefillin. what i plan on researching and presenting is
·         What are Tefillin?
·         The scrolls that are in the Tefillin
·         Why they are picked
·         Symbolism of Tefillin
·         commandment comes from the written Torah
·         How to make them, and what they are come from the oral tradition. The written Torah does not give any details.
·         How they are made
·         Different traditions on how they are made.
·         The process: pictures
·         Role of the scribe, his training, years of it.
·         Demonstration on how to put it on and put it away

  1. Eli, I like the explanation of what you plan to do, and I am interested to find out more about a process and tradition I know little about. I would also like to see another post, where you tell me about what you've learned so far, and any related stories that come up.
