heading Procession of the Torah Instructions We remove the Torah scroll from the ark and the leader faces the congregation. The following two lines are recited by the leader and we then repeat them: Passage שְׁמַע יִשְׂרָאֵל, יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵינוּ, יְהוָה אֶחָד. sh'MA yis|ra-EL, a|do|NAI e|lo|HEI|nu, a|do|NAI e|CHAD. she|MAʿ yiś|ra|ʾEL, a|do|NAI ʾe|lo|HE|nu, a|do|NAI ʾe|ḥADH. she|MAʿ yis|ra|EL, a|do|NAI e|lo|HE|nu, a|do|NAI e|ḥAD. sh'MA yis|ro-EIL, a|do|NOY e|loy|HEI|nu, a|do|NOY e|CHOD. Sh’ma yisrael, Adonai eloheinu, Adonai eḥad. Hear, O Israel, Adonai is our God, Adonai is one. Passage אֶחָד אֱלֹהֵינוּ, גָּדוֹל אֲדוֹנֵנוּ, קָדוֹשׁ שְׁמוֹ. e|CHAD e|lo|HEI|nu, ga|DOL a|do|NE|nu, ka|DOSH sh'MO. ʾe|ḥADH ʾe|lo|HE|nu, ga|DHOL ʾa|dho|NE|nu, qa|DHOSH she|MO. e|ḥAD e|lo|HE|nu, ga|DOL a|do|NE|nu, qa|DOSH she|MO. e|CHOD e|loy|HEI|nu, go|DOYL a|doy|NEI|nu, ko|DOYSH sh'MOY. Eḥad eloheinu, gadol adoneinu, kadosh sh’mo. Our God is one; great is our sovereign; holy is God’s name. Instructions Leader, facing the ark: Passage גַּדְּלוּ לַיהוָה אִתִּי, וּנְרוֹמְמָה שְׁמוֹ יַחְדָּו. gad|LU la|do|NAI I|ti, u|ne|ro|me|MAH sh'MO yach|DAV. gad|de|LU la|do|NAI ʾIT|ti, u|ne|ro|me|MAH she|MO yaḥ|DAV. gad|de|LU la|do|NAI IT|ti, u|ne|ro|me|MAH she|MO yaḥ|DAV. gad'|LU la|do|NOY I|ti, un'|roym'|MOH sh'MOY yach|DOV. Join me in glorifying Adonai; let us together acclaim God’s name. Instructions The Torah is carried in a circuit around the congregation.

Yours, Adonai, is the greatness, the strength, the glory, the triumph, and the splendor—for everything in heaven and on earth is Yours. Yours, Adonai, is the sovereignty and the majesty above all. Exalt Adonai, our God; bow down before God, the Holy One. Exalt Adonai, our God, and bow down at God’s holy mountain, for Adonai our God is holy. heading Reading from the Torah Instructions The Torah is placed on the reading table. heading A PRAYER FOR JEWISH COMMUNITIES IN DISTRESS Passage אָב הָרַחֲמִים, הוּא יְרַחֵם עַם עֲמוּסִים, וְיִזְכֹּר בְּרִית אֵיתָנִים, וְיַצִּיל נַפְשׁוֹתֵינוּ מִן הַשָּׁעוֹת הָרָעוֹת, וְיִגְעַר בְּיֵצֶר הָרָע מִן הַנְּשׂוּאִים, וְיָחֹן אוֹתָנוּ לִפְלֵיטַת עוֹלָמִים, וִימַלֵּא מִשְׁאֲלוֹתֵינוּ בְּמִדָּה טוֹבָה יְשׁוּעָה וְרַחֲמִים. av ha|ra|cha|MIM, hu ye|ra|CHEM am a|mu|SIM, ve|yiz|KOR b'RIT ei|ta|NIM, ve|ya|TZIL naf|sho|TEI|nu min ha|sha-OT ha|ra-OT, ve|yig|AR b'YE|tzer ha|RA min ha|ne|su-IM, ve|ya|CHON o|TA|nu lif|lei|TAT o|la|MIM, vi|ma|LEI mish|a|lo|TEI|nu b'mi|DAH to|VAH ye|shu-AH ve|ra|cha|MIM. ʾav ha|ra|ḥa|MIM, huʾ ye|ra|ḥEM ʿam ʿa|mu|SIM, ve|yiz|KOR be|RITH ʾe|tha|NIM, ve|yat|TZIL naf|sho|THE|nu min has|sha|ʿOTH ha|ra|ʿOTH, ve|yigh|ʿAR be|YE|tzer ha|RAʿ min han|ne|śu|ʾIM, ve|ya|ḥON ʾo|THA|nu lif|le|ṭATH ʿo|la|MIM, vi|mal|LEʾ mish|ʾa|lo|THE|nu be|mid|DAH ṭo|VAH ye|shu|ʿAH ve|ra|ḥa|MIM. av ha|ra|ḥa|MIM, hu ye|ra|ḥEM ʿam ʿa|mu|SIM, ve|yiz|KOR be|RIT e|ta|NIM, ve|yat|TZIL naf|sho|TE|nu min has|sha|ʿOT ha|ra|ʿOT, ve|yig|ʿAR be|YE|tzer ha|RAʿ min han|ne|su|IM, ve|ya|ḥON o|TA|nu lif|le|TAT ʿo|la|MIM, vi|mal|LE mish|a|lo|TE|nu be|mid|DAH to|VAH ye|shu|ʿAH ve|ra|ḥa|MIM. ov ho|ra|cha|MIM, hu y'ra|CHEIM am a|mu|SIM, v'yiz|KOYR b'RIS ei|so|NIM, v'ya|TZIL naf|shoy|SEI|nu min ha|sho-OYS ho|ro-OYS, v'yig|AR b'YEI|tzer ho|RO min han'|su-IM, v'yo|CHOYN oy|SO|nu lif|lei|TAS oy|lo|MIM, vi|ma|LEI mish|a|loy|SEI|nu b'mi|DOH toy|VOH y'shu-OH v'ra|cha|MIM. May the one who is the source of compassion recall the covenant with our ancestors and have compassion on this people borne by God. May the Divine rescue us in difficult times, remove the impulse to commit evil from those who bear it, and grant us enduring relief. May our requests be met with favor, deliverance, and compassion. heading BEFORE THE FIRST ALIYAH Instructions Leader: Passage וְיַעֲזֹר וְיָגֵן וְיוֹשִׁיעַ לְכָל הַחוֹסִים בּוֹ, וְנֹאמַר אָמֵן. הַכֹּל הָבוּ גֹדֶל לֵאלֹהֵינוּ וּתְנוּ כָבוֹד לַתּוֹרָה.

Instructions Congregation and Leader: Passage וְאַתֶּם הַדְּבֵקִים בַּיהוָה אֱלֹהֵיכֶם, חַיִּים כֻּלְּכֶם הַיּוֹם. ve-a|TEM had|ve|KIM ba|do|NAI e|lo|hei|CHEM, cha|YIM ku|le|CHEM ha|YOM. ve|ʾat|TEM had|de|ve|QIM ba|do|NAI ʾe|lo|he|KHEM, ḥay|YIM kul|le|KHEM hay|YOM. ve|at|TEM had|de|ve|QIM ba|do|NAI e|lo|he|KHEM, ḥay|YIM kul|le|KHEM hay|YOM. v'a|TEM had'|vei|KIM ba|do|NOY e|loy|hei|CHEM, cha|YIM kul'|CHEM ha|YOYM. V’attem ha-d’veikim badonai eloheikhem ḥayim kul’khem hayom. You who cling to Adonai your God have all been sustained to this day.
Commentary ACCLAIM גַּדְּלוּ. Psalm 34:4. This verse, asking the congregation to acknowledge Adonai, and the following verses, which form the congregational response, mark the oldest section of the Torah service. Since Judaism avoids any iconic representations of God, the Torah represents the most concrete symbol of God’s presence on earth. When we bow in the direction of the Torah, we are acknowledging God’s presence among us. In this vein, the Torah procession concludes with verses that speak of bowing before God.
Commentary YOURS, ADONAI לְךָ יְהוָה. 1 Chronicles 29:11. These verses are presented as part of David’s last speech to the people Israel.
Commentary ALIYOT. A person called to the Torah is an oleh/olah la-torah, one who “goes up” to the Torah, since in the Middle Ages the reading table was on a raised platform. It is considered an honor to be called up to the Torah, to publicly recite the blessings over the reading. During the talmudic era, each person called to the Torah would chant the assigned passage directly from the scroll. Today, each person called to the Torah recites the b’rakhot and the Torah is chanted by a designated reader. (To this day, Yemenite Jews called to the Torah read their own aliyah.) The ancient rabbis instituted a practice of calling a kohen for the first aliyah and a levi for the second, in order to mitigate arguments about who deserved the opening honors. Some congregations retain this practice; others call congregants to aliyot without regard to status. It has become customary that each person called to the Torah uses either the corner of the tallit or the Torah binder to touch the scroll at the starting place (indicated by the reader) and then kisses the tallit or binder, reciting the b’rakhah while holding the wooden handles of the Torah rollers. When the reading is completed, this gesture is repeated.
Commentary YOU WHO CLING וְאַתֶּם הַדְּבֵקִים. Deuteronomy 4:4. From Moses’ speech to Israel in the wilderness. In its context here, the verse is an assertion that it is through Torah that the fullness of life can be achieved.
