Chatan Torah – Shmini Atseret 5784

Who is the “Chatan Torah” and What does he do?

“Chatan Torah” is the title given to the individual who bought the honor at the Auction or the person designated by that buyer (frequently the Rabbi or some other highly respected member of the congregation). He is called to the Torah with a beautiful chant, describing his greatness in glowing (occasionally, slightly exaggerated) terms, and is given the honor of reciting the blessing over the last section of the Torah to be read in the current year, which is the conclusion of Moshe’s valedictory address to the Jewish People.
