The Chovas Halvovas explains that when a carpenter makes a table they all look the same like a table but Hashem created every individual to be different. The Sefer Chagvei Haselah from Rav Yonah Tzvi Horowitz, explains that the Torah start with a ב to emphasize this bechina, being different and the aseres hadibros with an א, through the mitzvos to unify each other. Tefila, the zechusim of the tzibur, Torah learning, give a take like a business transaction, and even for Tefilin, someone else’s help is necessary, if someone does not make it, we cannot put it on.
