Torah Call Up
Question
I’m going thru an orthodox conversion my father is Jewish I wanted to know, when I get called to the Torah will it be Ben Avraham or my fathers name Ben Nimord
Answer
Shalom!
Thank you for your question.
A convert is to be called up to the Torah as "Ben Avraham" even if his father is Jewish.
