Odaya Azulai donated a Torah scroll: The moving blessing of Rabbi Yigal Cohen

Singer Odaya Azulai, known to many by her nickname "Child of Faith," donated a Torah scroll this Thursday evening at her home in Rishon LeZion. During the special ceremony, the singer participated in all the honors of the Torah scroll, which she chose to donate to the neighborhood synagogue. The moving event was held in the spirit of the beginning of the month of Elul, the month of mercy and forgiveness, with Azulai sharing emotional footage on social media under the title "Elul."

Family members, close friends, and a number of celebrities and leading industry figures took part in the ceremony and the magnificent celebrations. Among the prominent guests who arrived to honor the occasion were singer Ben Tzur, Sharon Adam — mother of singer Omer Adam, who is getting married very soon, and other figures. The central and prominent guest at the event was the Gaon Rabbi Yigal Cohen, who was honored with writing a letter in the new Torah scroll and blessed those present.

During the evening, Rabbi Yigal Cohen turned to Odaya Azulai and blessed her with great emotion for the significant step she had taken. "You are performing a great Kiddush Hashem (sanctification of the Name)," the Rabbi told the singer. Odaya wore a festive white dress and looked like a bride on her wedding day. Another moving moment was recorded when Sharon Adam uploaded a story to social media in which she warmly blessed Azulai: "My beloved Odaya, all the blessings be upon you and your home always, I love you very much, amen and amen."
