Weekly Torah & Haftarah Readings

With Rabbi Reuven Ben-Avraham

A note for the non-Jewish reader: Each Sabbath the Jewish People (Israel) reads the following …

1… The Parashat … Readings from the Torah - The Five Books of Moshe - Moses.

2... And the Haftarah … from the Nevi’im - Prophets.

Fifty-four passages are read over a year, embracing the entire Torah. Each deals with a particular theme and each portion is named after one of the first words of the opening passage, such as - “Bereshis,” which translates as “in the Beginning”. Bereshis - Genesis chapter 1:1.

However for the Yom Tovim, the “High Holy Days”, there are special readings, and these are all listed on another page. Click this LINK Dates-for-Yom-Tovim.htm. Or view this page using the link at the bottom of the page, and view this page first!

For blessings before and after the Readings, see - A Guide to Daily Prayers.

The More TORAH – The More LIFE

Also view the Dates for the Feasts Including Parashat to be read at each feast.

I trust that this page will be of a great benefit to you as you will be able to follow the readings at the Synagogue, or if you are at home. If at all possible it would be good to go to the Synagogue on the Sabbath and he Feasts, and possibly even become a member. But chose your congregation carefully, and should you so desire, ask me for guidance per email, see the link down the page.

Wishing you and your Mishpachah or Mesbucha (family) “Shabbat Shalom”, or “Hag Sameach” may the Peace of the Almighty fill you, your family and your home!

Rabbi Reuven Ben-Avraham.

Please Note: On this site I will show the four letter blessed *“Memorial Name” of the Almighty in Ivrit - - Y-H-V-H, which we usually pronounce as “Adonai” or “HaShem”. At all times treat the most blessed Name with sanctity and when we even see the Name, we should say “blessed be His Sanctified Name.”

*“This is My Name forever, and this is My memorial to all generations.” Shemot - Exodus 3:15.
