Short portionsof the law written on strips of parchment, whichwere placed in a case made of calf skin, and wornupon the forehead and the left arm, supposed to be in obedience to Deuteronomy 6:8; Deuteronomy 11:18 . The Pharisees and scribes made them large to attract attention; it was their being made 'broad' that was condemned by the Lord. Matthew 23:5 . In later times they were worn as a sort of charm. See FRONTLET.
