(Continued from Page 1)
Correction, Aug. 22, 2005: This piece originally said that the head tefillin is put on before the strap from the hand tefillin is wound around the forearm. In fact, the head tefillin is generally put on after. Then the hand tefillin strap is wound around the hand and finger. (Return to the corrected sentence.)
