Pazer
Pazer (Template:Langx) is a cantillation mark found in the Torah, Haftarah, and other books of the Hebrew Bible. The pazer is generally followed by a Telisha ketana or gedola; on rare occasions, it is followed by another Pazer.
The Pazer is used to prolong a word significantly during the reading.[1] This places strong emphasis on the meaning of the particular word.[2]
The Hebrew word Script error: No such module "Lang". translates into English as distribute or disseminate. This relates to the high number of notes in its melody. In a mystical interpretation, it shows the distribution of divinity.[3]
