Reb Yonason Eivshitez refers to tefillin as חותמא דמלקא קדישה, the ‘seal of the the holy king’. When you are getting ready to own a new set of tefillin, keep this description in mind. Tell me, who wouldn’t want to wear the seal of the holy king? Who wouldn’t feel a sense of majesty when when adorning himself with such an object?
