The fear a bar mitzvah boy has on the
day he is called up to the torah in the
Temple/Synagogue to become a man.
The fear of being asked to
read from the torah at the temple/synagogue.
Despite learning his torah portion for a full year, on the
day of his bar mitzvah,
Joel was so torahfied, he started singing an octave higher than normal.
James was not a regular synagogue attender and quite unconfident with the
flow of the temple/synagogue service. So he became rather torahfied once the the Rabbi gave him the honour of being 'called up' for a torah blessing.
