An Entity of Type: person, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

A baal keriah (Hebrew: בַּעַל קְרִיאָה‎, 'master of the reading'), colloquially called the baal korei (Hebrew: בַּעַל קוֹרֵא‎, 'master-reader'), is a member of a Jewish congregation who reads from the Sefer Torah during the service.
