也不拘那经匣是新是旧;这是 拉比梅伊尔 的话。拉比犹大 不许人带新的,旧的却许带。可见一位贤者、就是 拉比犹大,执定人肯费工夫把护身符作得像经匣;另一位贤者、就是 拉比梅伊尔,执定人不肯为这事费工夫,所以样子像经匣的必是经匣。

and whether the phylacteries are new or old; this is the statement of Rabbi Meir.

拉比犹大 不许人带新的,旧的却许带。
Rabbi Yehuda prohibits carrying new phylacteries but permits carrying old ones.

Apparently, one Sage, Rabbi Yehuda, holds that a person exerts himself to fashion an amulet that looks like phylacteries, and one Sage, Rabbi Meir, holds that a person does not exert himself for this purpose, and therefore something that has the appearance of phylacteries must be phylacteries.
