yad
A yad ((ヘブライ語:יד), literally "hand"; (イディッシュ語:האַנט)) is a Jewish ritual pointer, popularly known as a Torah pointer, used by the reader to follow the text during the Torah reading from the parchment Torah scrolls.
==Rationale==
Beyond its practical usage in pointing out letters, the yad ensures that the parchment is not touched during the reading. There are several reasons for this: handling the parchment renders one ritually impure and the often-fragile parchment is easily damaged. Moreover, the vellum parchment does not absorb ink so touching the scroll with fingers will damage the lettering.〔(Torah ), (JewFAQ ). Ref. Date= February 10, 2012.〕 While not required when chanting from the Torah, it is used frequently and is considered a ''hidur mitzvah'' ("embellishment of the commandment") of reading the Torah.
