Passage 4. On Mondays and Thursdays, three persons are called to the Torah and part of the opening of that week's Torah portion is read. Three persons are also called on Chanukah, Purim, and public fast days. The portions read are appropriate to the occasion and begin on page 467. true Passage 5. On Rosh Chodesh and Chol HaMoed (in view of the additional Amidah, Musaf), four persons are called up for the reading of the designated Torah portions. true Passage 6. On Tishah b'Av, the third person called reads a special Haftarah. true heading PERSONS TO BE CALLED UP FOR THE TORAH READING Passage 1. A Kohen is called to the Torah for the first aliyah, and a Levi for the second. true Passage 2. If no Kohen is present, a Levi or Yisrael may be called for the first aliyah. However, the following text is substituted: וּתְנוּ כָבוֹד לַתּוֹרָה, אֵין כָּאן כֹּהֵן יַעֲמוֹד (name) בֶּן (father's name) יִשְׂרָאֵל / לֵוִי בִּמְקוֹם כֹּהֵן, בָּרוּךְ שֶׁנָּתַן... true Passage 3. If a Yisrael is called for the first or second aliyah, a Levi may not be called up after him. true Passage 4. If there is no Levi for the second aliyah, the Kohen who was called for the first aliyah is called again, and recites both blessings again. He is reintroduced by the announcement: "בִּמְקוֹם לֵוִי". true Passage 5. If there are Kohanim and Levi'im but no Yisraelim present, Kohanim and Levi'im are called alternatively. true Passage 6. If there are not enough Yisraelim present for the aliyot but there are Kohanim (and one Levi), the first three aliyot are: Kohen, Levi, Yisrael. The following aliyot are given to the Yisraelim until there are no more Yisraelim present. For the rest of the aliyot, Kohanim are called. For example, when only three Yisraelim are present on Shabbat, the order would be: 1) Kohen, 2) Levi, 3) Yisrael, 4) Yisrael, 5) Yisrael, 6) Kohen, 7) Kohen. true Passage 7. If there are not enough Yisraelim, and there are Kohanim—but not enough to complete the amount of aliyot—and at least two Levi'im, the order of "Kohen, Levi, Yisrael" is repeated. For example, on Shabbat the result would be: 1) Kohen, 2) Levi, 3) Yisrael, 4) Kohen, 5) Levi, 6) Yisrael, 7) Kohen. true Passage 8. If all those present are Kohanim, a different Kohen is called for each aliyah. The same applies if all are Levi'im. However, if one Yisrael is present besides them, he is called first. The same applies if one Levi is present in a shul of Kohanim or one Kohen is present in a shul of Levi'im (and there are no Yisraelim). true Passage 9. No additions should be made to the prescribed number of aliyot at each reading. true Passage 10.

The custom is to recite this blessing in all cases of being saved from harm in a life-threatening situation. true Passage 3.

If one is obligated to say the blessing but did not receive an aliyah, he recites it after the conclusion of the Torah reading, following the Half Kaddish. true Passage 5.
