About Traditional Bible Reading

In ancient times, even when the Temple existed, a tradition of reading Bible verses was transferred from generation to generation orally, by teachers (MELAMDIM) who taught the kids babies to read the whole Bible. When the children were returning for teacher reading from the book, he teaches them with melody hints of the next word by special gestures with his hands, where every gesture has her own melody.

BA'ALEY HAMESORA, determined special signs that their shape reminds the hand movement of MELAMED when teaching kids babies reading, and listed them under the words or above the words so the learner knew how to sing that word. These signs are Cantillation (Ta'amey Hamikra).
