Opening the Ark, Carrying and Lifting
Question
Hello, In a minyan where it is customary to lift the Torah scroll before the Torah reading and keep it until after 'Uva LeTzion Goel', is it customary for the person who opened the ark and took out the scroll to also perform the lifting?
Answer
Hello,
There is no connection between these roles, and each place should follow its own custom.
