Does speaking between putting on the arm tefillin and the head tefillin constitute a full interruption?

This Torah study examines the question: Does speaking between putting on the arm tefillin and the head tefillin constitute a full interruption? The canonical Hebrew discussion develops the issue through the weekly Torah portion and the sources cited there, preserving the distinctions, tensions and practical implications that belong to the source itself. This localized layer is designed for study and discovery; it does not add a new halakhic, medical, legal, historical or empirical ruling beyond the canonical Hebrew source.
