Totafoth is not the same as tefillin. The tefillin are both the tefillin shel rosh (head) and the tefillin shel yad (hand/arm in biblical Hebrew). Totafoth is an ancient word of Anatolian origin. According to Rashi, totafot(h) means literally two-two, referring to the four compartments in the tefillin shel rosh.

"The obligation of tefillin is mentioned four times in the Torah:"
This doesn't sound right in wikivoice, IMO it's a statement of faith, and the lead says The biblical verses often cited as referring to tefillin are obscure. Also, per WP:RSPSCRIPTURE, some brilliant secondary sourcing would be good.
Except that the Tefillin contain the 4 passages that mention Tefillin. A secondary source would be the Kabalistic declaration that mentions the 4 passages as well. Saxophonemn (talk) 11:49, 12 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
