TEFILLIN AROUND THE WORLD

TEFILLIN AROUND THE WORLD

So ... for those of you who are meeting the Tefillin for the first time I will give a brief explanation; The Tefillin are an ancient object in the Jewish tradition, shaped like a black cube attached to leather straps, inside this cube is an ancient and sacred Jewish spelling. According to the belief, Tefillin connects the spirit with the material, between God and the human being.
 

In 2019-2020 I traveled on several continents around the world (you can read more details on the ABOUT page) During the trip I documented some of the moments of using Tefillin during prayer.
These pictures created a lot of excitement throughout the social networks in Israel because it is an unusual thing in the Israeli landscape. The excitement was mainly due to the combination of the sacred with the wild nature. In this gallery you can enjoy the special pictures.
