Mezuzah , Hebrew מזוזה , jamb (door) , plural מזוזות ( mezuzot ) is a Jewish ritual object , consisting of a container which holds a parchment ( Claf ) on which are drawn up the steps of the Torah. The Claf , as mentioned above is in parchment and in case of strict compliance must be written with non-metallic pens , decorated in Hebrew characters should be checked periodically , and correct or replace if discolored or damaged. The mezuzah is placed on the door jamb , to the right compared to those who enter , and about two thirds of the height of the door itself , and in any case within reach of the hand. It should not be placed on the doors of the only transit or on the doors of the rooms in which you reside (kitchen, bathroom , closet, basement , sometimes also puts the entrance to the kitchen , and if there is inhabited or spend long periods of use , also from the revenue of gardens and terraces) . It is customary that those who enter the house with your fingers touch the mezuzah and kiss the fingers themselves , as a sign of respect for the Torah which contains steps .
