Celebration Honors Scribe’s Completion of Torah - Somerset Reporter - NJ

Never before has Basking Ridge been witness to such a celebration. Looking like a mini wedding the scribe sat on a stage writing the final words of the Torah scroll with ink and quill. Upon completion the Torah was covered with its beautiful ornaments and silver crown. Carrying torches, banners made by the students, the entire community followed the Torah on its parade to the synagogue.
