They are called "Tefillin" ( תפילין) in Hebrew. The English term of "phylacteries",
which came to English from Ancient Greek, is usually seen as pejorative by Jews.
It is worth noting that all male Jews above the age of Bar Mitzvah use tefillin
when praying in the mornings on all non-festive days, not just Rabbis.
It is also worth noting that "Tefillin" ( תפילין) is a plural, because there are two
of them ... one on the forehead, and another on the biceps of the individual's
weaker arm.
The "black boxes" contain small rolled parchments, on which are written certain
paragraphs from Torah, including the commandment of Tefillin.
