Torah Pointers

The Torah pointer, has an essential role in the Torah reading. In Hebrew it is called the Yad, the hand as it essentially acts as the reader’s hand whilst reading the Torah portion. Its main function is to point to the letters when reading.

The parchment from the Torah scroll should not be touched by hand so as not to impurify it. Another reason for using the Torah pointer is because the parchment is extremely fragile and if touched in an incorrect manner it can break or destroy the delicate parchment.

The pointer is designed with a fisted hand with the index finger pointing. It is with this finger that we use the Yad to point to where we are reading from. These pointers are kept in the synagogue and have a place of much respect and therefore they are beautifully decorated. In keeping with Jewish tradition in which objects used to sanctify Judaism are treated with respect and awe, the pointers are beautifully decorated with elegant and artistic designs. This is a great gift for a bar mitzvah boy or even for a synagogue.
