Arm (shel yad)
Start with the arm, placing the tefillin around the biceps, (between elbow and armpit).
Tighten, and wrap the tefillin strap around 7 times
Head (shel rosh)
Next, the head part of the Tefillin is placed above the forehead.
The knot of the Tefillin is positioned at the back of the head, just above the nape.
The two straps of the head Tefillin are brought out in front of the shoulders, with the black side facing outwards.
Tefillin also called phylacteries ( from Ancient Greek phylacterion, form of phylássein, meaning "to guard, protect") are a set of small black leather boxes containing scrolls of parchment inscribed with verses from the Torah, which are worn by observant Jews during weekday morning prayers. Although "tefillin" is technically the plural form (the singular being "tefillah"), it is loosely used as a singular as well. The arm-tefillin, or shel yad, is placed on the upper arm, and the strap wrapped around the arm, hand and fingers; while the head-tefillin, or shel rosh, is placed above the forehead. The Torah commands that they should be worn to serve as a "sign" and "remembrance" that God brought the children of Israel out of Egypt.
The scriptural texts for tefillin are obscure in literal meaning. For example, the verse in Deut. 11:18 does not designate what specifically to "bind upon your arm," and the definition of totafot is not obvious. It is the Talmud, the authoritative oral tradition for Rabbinic Judaism, which explains what are to be bound to the body and the form of tefillin.
