Parshas Bo
And so it shall be as a sign upon your hand and as a symbol on your forehead that with a mighty hand the L-rd freed us from Egypt.
(Bo 13:16)
Question:
What is the difference between Tefilin of the hand תפילין של יד, and Tefilin of the head תפילין של ראש?
By the hand, there are 4 parshiyos written on one long piece of parchment, placed in one compartment
By the head, we write 4 separate parshiyos and place them in four separate compartments.
Why the difference?
