Aliyah: How to Chant the Torah Blessings  


Click here for an English trans-literation and audio of the blessings before and after the reading of the Torah.  It is an honor to be called to do an Aliyah.  That is especially true for B'nai Mitzvah and for High Holiday services.  Please be sure to provide the Rabbi with your Hebrew name and the Hebrew name of your mother (for a woman) or your father (for a man).

For a Hebrew version of the blessings, click here.
