The Torah Blessings

 

Before the Aliyah is read, the honoree called to the Torah says:

Praise the Lord, Source of all blessing.

 

The Congregation responds, and then the honoree repeats:

Praised be the Lord, Source of all blessing, forevermore.

 

The honoree continues:

      Blessed art thou, Lord our God, Ruler of the universe, who has called us to thy service from among all the peoples by giving us thy Torah. Blessed art thou, O Lord, Giver of the Torah.

After the Aliyah has been read, the honoree says:

      Blessed art thou, Lord our God, Ruler of the universe, who hast given us the Torah of truth and hast thereby planted in us everlasting life. Blessed art thou, O Lord, Giver of the Torah.
