Question
Before my Bar Mitzvah, my tefillin got a bit worn, and I painted them. Are they kosher to wear now that I am post-Bar Mitzvah?
Answer
A minor should not paint tefillin for others initially, but he may do so for himself. Therefore, what you painted when you were a minor is valid for you, and you do not need to repaint them.
