Orthodox Jews bind parchments to their bodies when they pray. These go in little leather boxes (Shelim). One goes on the forehead - the Shel Rosh - and one on the arm - the Shel Yad.

What kind of objects are used in a bar mitzvah?
The celebration of a boy's bar mitzvah involves calling the boy up for his first alyiah in a synagogue service. An alyiah in the synagogue service is when an adult member of the congregation is called up for a portion of the Torah reading. Therefore, one of the objects, obviously, is the Torah. Because it is improper to touch the Torah with your fingers, the Torah reader typically uses a little pointer called a yad. That adds another object to the list. Finally, the person called up for a Torah reading typically wears a tallit -- a prayer shawl with fringes on its four corners. In the case of a bar mitzvah, it is common for this to be the first time that boy has worn a tallit. That makes a third object.

How many years before Jesus was born did Isaiah prophesy his birth?
AnswerSome scholars say that the Book of Isaiah was written by two authors, now known as First Isaiah and Second Isaiah. Others, possibly a minority, say that there were three authors, and add Third Isaiah as well. First Isaiah, whom we know as the Isaiah who signed his work in verse 1:1, wrote during the reigns of Kings Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz and Hezekiah of Judah. This places First Isaiah around 2,700 years ago.There was then a break of over a hundred years before an anonymous author, now known as Second Isaiah decided to add new material to the by-then ancient book, during the Babylonian Exile. Whether he is the same author who continued to write during the early years after the Return from Exile is uncertain. Overall, Second Isaiah (and Third Isaiah) wrote for some decades, but the total is open to debate. They lived around 2,500 years ago.
