Orthodox Jews march and celebrate on their way to a synagogue during an inauguration ceremony for a new Torah scroll in Modi'in, Israel, on March 8, 2019. A Sefer Torah (Hebrew: "Book of Torah" or "Torah scroll") is a handwritten copy of the Torah, the holiest book in Judaism. It must meet extremely strict standards of production. The Torah scroll is mainly used in the ritual of Torah reading during Jewish prayers. (Xinhua/Gil Cohen Magen)
