Tefillin is NOT optional!

B"H

Tefillin is not optional.

When there is a milchama, we show up in the way we can. Not all of us are on the front lines. But all of us can put on the uniform of Am Yisrael.

The Gemara calls tefillin oz l’Yisrael — strength for the Jewish people. The Torah says that when the nations see that the Name of Hashem is upon us, they will fear. Chazal explain: this refers to the tefillin shel rosh.

This is spiritual armor.

Jewish men, put them on.

Five minutes. Shema Yisrael. Daven.

Lo yanum v’lo yishan Shomer Yisrael.

Hashem neither slumbers nor sleeps.

Be strong, Am Yisrael.

Hashem yishmor et amo Yisrael.
