DEUTERONOMY 11:18 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“Therefore shall ye lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul, and bind them for a sign upon your hand, that they may be as frontlets between your eyes.”
Fix these words of mine in your hearts and your souls. Tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads — the command for internalization involves multiple modalities: memory (heart), intention (soul), and physical practice (binding words on hands and foreheads). The literal binding (tefillin) would later emerge as a Jewish practice.
