Liturgy for Menachot 86:14

תניא היה רבי מאיר אומר גדול עונשו של לבן יותר מעונשו של תכלת משל למה הדבר דומה למלך בשר ודם שאמר לשני עבדיו לאחד אמר הבא לי חותם של טיט ולאחד אמר הבא לי חותם של זהב ופשעו שניהם ולא הביאו איזה מהן עונשו מרובה הוי אומר זה שאמר לו הבא לי חותם של טיט ולא הביא

R'Eliezer B'Jacob said, Whosoever has the tefillin on his head, the tefillin on his arm, the zizith on his garment, and the mezuzah on his doorpost, is in absolute security against sinning, for it is written, And a threefold cord is not quickly broken;<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Eccl. IV, 12. The reference is to the three precepts enumerated.');"><sup>13</sup></span> and it is also written, The angel of the Lord encampeth round about them that fear Him, and delivereth them.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Psalms XXXIV, 8.');"><sup>14</sup></span>

Blessed are You, Adonoy our God, King of the Universe, Who did not make me a woman.1There is no degradation of women implied in this blessing. Men thank God for the privilege, which is theirs, of performing all the precepts of the Torah, many of which are not incumbent upon women.
