Badly Damaged Tefillin Battim Leave a comment Blog: Diary of a sofer: See the issues that Rabbi Michaels deals with on a daily basis., Daily Occurrences January 11, 2017 Wow! These tefillin battim are damaged very seriously. There is no way to fix them. Even if they would be gassos battim which can often be repaired, if they would be this bent up they would need to be replaced.
