Opening the ark, carrying the Torah in a procession through the congregation, and reading aloud from the scroll are all symbolic moments when the presence and will of the Divine may be especially felt. It is as if with the opening of the ark, the doorway to heaven itself is opened. Since there is no physical representation of God in Judaism, the Torah has come to be seen as the most significant expression of the presence of God—it is the representation of God’s voice, God’s call to us. Taking out the Torah has come to be seen as a representation of divine sovereignty, and so it has taken on the drama of a royal procession. Thus, the Torah is adorned with a crown, and its cover is kissed as it passes through the congregation, as was the custom for kissing the hem of the king’s garments. Additionally, the Torah is dressed with accouterments of the High Priest, including a breastplate and bells (originally used to signal his presence). In short, how we treat the Torah scroll combines the three “crowns” about which the ancient rabbis spoke: the crown of sovereignty, the crown of priesthood, and the crown of Torah (Pirkei Avot 4:17)." }, { "type": "Commentary", "text": "NONE COMPARES TO YOU אֵין כָּמוֹךָ.

Written by hand on parchment with a quill and permanent ink, the words of these five books depict the formative narratives of Jewish identity and self-understanding and the fundamental regulations of Jewish practice, the 613 mitzvot. Later rabbinic teaching presents itself as but an elaboration of these words—midrash. Because the Torah is written as a continuous scroll, only a part of the text of the Torah can be seen at any one time. Metaphorically, this reminds us that the meaning of Torah is always partially revealed and partially hidden, and its teaching is constantly unfolding; even so, it is one continuous, integrated whole." }, { "type": "MarginNote", "text": "To Whom Is the Torah Addressed?

Rabbi Yose the son of Ḥanina added: The divine word came to each person in accord with that individual’s own capacity. —PESIKTA D’RAV KAHANA" } ] } }, "links": [ { "rel": "parent", "title": "Siddur Lev Shalem (Excerpts)", "href": "/siddur/lev-shalem.json" }, { "rel": "prev", "title": "The Amidah", "href": "/siddur/lev-shalem/lev-61-167-shabbat-and-festivals-morning-service-the-amidah.json" }, { "rel": "next", "title": "Torah Service", "href": "/siddur/lev-shalem/lev-63-170-shabbat-morning-service-torah-service.json" } ] }
