          <english>Over all may the name of the Supreme King of kings, the Holy One blessed be He, be magnified and sanctified, praised and glorified, exalted and extolled, in the worlds that He has created – this world and the World to Come – in accordance with His will, and the will of those who fear Him, and the will of the whole house of Israel. He is the Rock of worlds, Lord of all creatures, God of all souls, who dwells in the spacious heights and inhabits the high heavens of old. His holiness is over the Hayyot and over the throne of glory. Therefore may Your name, LORD our God, be sanctified among us in the sight of all that lives. Let us sing before Him a new song, as it is written: “Sing to God, make music for His name, extol Him who rides the clouds – the LORD is His name – and exult before Him.” And may we see Him eye to eye when He returns to His abode as it is written: “For they shall see eye to eye when the LORD returns to Zion.” And it is said: “Then will the glory of the LORD be revealed, and all mankind together shall see that the mouth of the LORD has spoken.”</english>

          <text>ASCENT TO THE TORAH The original custom was that each of those called to the Torah read his own portion. Not everyone was able to do this, so the practice developed of entrusting the reading to one with expertise (commonly, though ungrammatically, known as the ba’al koreh), “so as not to shame those who do not know how to read” their own portions. Instead, they say the blessings before and after the portion, and recite the text silently along with the Reader.</text>

          <text>(Vayak-hel 206a), is prefaced in its original context with the words: “Rabbi Shimon said: When the scroll of the Torah is taken out to be read in public, the Gates of Compassion are opened, and love is aroused on high. Therefore one should say (at this time): ...” The prayer “Blessed is the name” then follows. The custom of reciting it has its origins in the circle of mystics in Safed associated with Rabbi Isaac Luria.</text>
