Tefillin Odem

Partial list of Specifications:

The following is a partial list of the special enhancements that are incorporated in the Odem Tefillin:

• Gid, tendon, is placed between each of the interior walls, and an additional gid, this time from the outside, separates the compartments of the Head Tefillin (Tefillin shel Rosh). 
• The protruding "ש" (shin), on the outside of the Head Tefillin, is completely pulled out by hand from the hide. 
• Note: These are just a few of the "Hiddurim" (enhancements) that cannot be discerned by the naked eye.

We choose the nicest housings and then enhance them in order to provide you with the tools necessary to fulfill this mitzvah in the best possible manner and thus allow you to achieve the highest attributes of Hiddur Mitzvah.

Tefillin specifications:

Batim size: 32- 35 mm square.

All the parchments, scrolls, are written by our qualified Sofrim, Scribes, on the parchment of unborn calves. All of our parchments undergo three levels of proofreading that checks for: accuracy of the form of the letters, no breaks in the letters and extra or missing letters or words. All the parchments also undergo a computerized scanning and check. All the parchments are categorized to the level according to Jewish law and to their Hiddur, beauty. IE: It is permitted by Halacha to join two pieces of parchment together in order to make one long parchment, for writing the long parchment of the Tefillin shel Yad (Arm Tefillin). However, these just don't look nice and therefore are not used in the HaYovel, Miksheh B or Odem brands of our Tefillin in Tefillin Beit El.

Additional Enhancements:

• The straps are handmade from the top layer of highest quality hides (meaning: they are usually very soft).

• Hand strap length – 4.5 meters. (Enough for Og King of Bashan)

• Head strap length – 3 meters. (Enough for Sihon King of the Amorites too)
