Ako ay nakatayo sa pagitan ninyo at ng Walang-Hanggan nang panahong iyon upang ipahayag sa inyo ang salita ng Walang-Hanggan, sapagkat natakot kayo sa apoy at hindi kayo umakyat sa bundok. Ganito ang Kanyang sinabi:
Mishneh Torah, Prayer and the Priestly Blessing
The person who reads may not do so till the chief member of the congregation invites him to do so. Even the appointed officer of the synagogue or its president does not read, at his own volition, but waits till the congregation or its chief member tells him to do so. And some one should stand at his side, while he is reading, just as the appointed officer stands at the side of other persons who read.
