What is the Torah stored in?

Answer 1

A cabinet in the front of the Synogogue called the Aron Kodesh in hebrew, or the Holy Cabinet in English

Answer 2

The term 'ark' is the name given to the special cabinet that holds Torahs in a synagogue. This is in reference to the ark uses by Moses.

Answer 3

In the synagogue, the Torah is kept inside an ark called an Aron Kodesh while not in use.

Answer 4

In the aron, a special closet intended for the purpose.

Answer 5

For protection

Answer 6

A Torah scroll is about the size and weight of a baby, and takes close to a year's labor by a highly trained scribe to create. If you had something that big and that expensive, I suspect you'd put it in a nice box to protect it. That's what the ark is. It's called a holy merely because it's used to hold a sacred text (or texts, since most synagogues want to have at least two Torah scrolls -- some services go more smoothly with multiple scrolls).

Answer 7

to keep it safe
