More on Teffillin
Teffilin is of huge importance. I personally like this mitzvah a great deal, and not because of my leather fetish. That's a joke. All kidding aside, putting on teffilin is really major. Sometimes the Torah gives the Jewish people commandments with no explanation, but sometimes we do get an explanation of sorts. One of those commandments is teffillin. Putting on Teffilin makes Jews safer. When a Jew puts on teffilin it increases the safety of Jewish people. In ancient times, when Jews had to go to war, they fought with their teffilin on. Also the teffillin is filled with mysticism like a knot in the shape of a Jewish letter.
