What happens during the opening of the Ark in a Jewish ceremony?
At one point during the morning service on Monday, Thursday, Saturday and holidays, the ark is opened in order to remove the Torah scroll and transport it to the table for public reading. At points during the services on some holidays, the ark is opened temporarily but the Torah is not removed. In either case, anyone in attendance at the service stands while the ark is open, as a gesture of respect toward the Torah. The prescribed prayers are sung or recited while the ark is open, then the Torah is removed if that's appropriate, then the ark is closed, and congregants return to their seats.
