It is said in the presence of a minyan (at least ten adult males), usually, though not necessarily, at the time of the reading of the Torah, and within three days of the event. הַגּוֹמֵל לְחַיָּבִים טוֹבוֹת Who bestows good on the unworthy: reminiscent of Jacob’s prayer (Gen. 32:11), “I am unworthy of all the kindness and faithfulness You have shown Your servant.”"
