Blessing
After Reading the Torah |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
Baruch
atta adonoi, elohainu melech ha'olam, |
| |
asher
natan lanu torat emet, v'chayai olam nata b'tochainu. |
| |
Baruch
atta adonoi, notain hatorah |
| |
|
| |
You move over next
to the second gabi until the end of the next person receiving a speaking
honor completes reciting the second blessing above. Then leave the bemah
and return to your seat.
You may notice some
people walking down the stairs backwards after leaving the bema. There
is a custom not to turn your back to the ark when leaving the bema and
going down the stairs backwards. However, this is not required and should
not be done if you feel uncomfortable or fear that you may fall.
