Torah Pointer

Torah Pointers, also known as yad or yad Torah, are ceremonial pointers used in Jewish religious services to follow the text while reading from the Torah scroll. They are typically made of metal, such as silver or brass, and are designed with a hand-shaped or finger-shaped tip that is used to point to the words being read.

Torah Pointers are considered sacred objects and are used by the person reading the Torah to avoid touching the parchment directly, as it is considered a sign of respect for the sacred text. They are often ornately decorated with intricate designs, engravings, or gemstones, reflecting the importance and reverence given to the Torah.

In the supply class Ecclesiastical Equipment, Furnishings, And Supplies, Torah Pointers would fall under the category of ceremonial or religious items used in Jewish religious services.
