| | Aliyah - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Many Jews espouse aliyah as a return to the Promised land, and regard it as the fulfillment of God's biblical promise to the descendants of the Hebrew patriarchs Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. | | | In Zionist discourse, the term aliyah includes both voluntary immigration for ideological, emotional or practical reasons and, on the other hand, mass flight of persecuted populations of Jews. | | | When someone reads the Torah prayers before and after the reading, they are making aliyah, or "going up" (spiritually and literally, as usually the bimah is raised.) |

| | Aliyah |
| | The Hebrew word for immigration (aliyah) means ascent or a spiritual going up. | | | The raison dêtre of the State of Israel continues to be aliyah, along with education and security. | | | The process is not yet perfect, but Jews who come to the Jewish State whether they have to or whether they want to are welcomed, helped, feted and eventually integrated into the colorful mosaic of modern Israel. |

| | "Is Making Aliyah Making a Comeback?" by Cinnamon Stillwell |
| | The spiritual meaning of Aliyah, is ''growing in the knowledge and understanding of God by climbing a spiritual ladder.'' Legalistically, Aliyah is based on Israel’s Law of Return. | | | Aliyah is a Hebrew word that means ''to ascend.'' The term making Aliyah is defined on several levels, the simplest being to immigrate to Israel. | | | Whether they choose to make Aliyah or not, the Holy Land beckons and Jews are once again hearing its call. |

| | Aliyah Spotlight |
| | Groups of immigrants will make aliyah to seven cities where they will be met and assisted in their initial absorption. | | | The aim is to create a community of immigrants abroad, for them to make aliyah together, and to assist in their absorption in Israel on a group basis. | | | Community absorption is a process which eases the first steps of aliyah, and boosts an immigrant's chances of succeeding once in Israel. |

| | How to Aliyah |
| | Please also note that the term "aliyah" refers not only to the honor of being called to bless the Torah, but to the section of text which is read between the blessings you will recite. | | | Torah is read in the synagogue, and it is important to fulfill this mitzvah (commandment) with dignity, both out of respect for God and Torah, and out of respect for the congregation, on whose behalf you will be blessing the Torah. | | | Hence it is important to be familiar with the ritual of the aliyah and practice reciting the blessing aloud prior to the occasion, if the blessing is not familiar to you. |

| | Aliyah from WUJS |
| | To the extent that aliyah is about Israel and not strengthening Jewish identity, follow-up has to be seen as equally important to going to Israel in the first place. | | | I don't know that any of them are going to make aliyah and I'm not sure that the State of Israel needs to be spending money on that kind of thing. | | | Living in Israel has to be seen as a continuation of life, a not-that-big-thing to do, not a new beginning that is impenetrable to all thought and planning. |

| | On the anniversary, a male (or female, in Reform and Conservative congregations) usually recites the Qaddish (doxology) in the synagogue at all three services, and males may be called up (aliyah) for the public reading of the Torah. | | | In Judaism, the honour, accorded to a worshiper, of being called up to read an assigned passage from the Torah at Sabbath morning services; or Jewish immigration to Israel. | | | Because the passage assigned for each Sabbath morning service is subdivided into a minimum of seven sections, at least seven different persons are called up for these readings. |
