Shabbat Torah Readings 5785. Traditionally, the five books of the Torah (Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy) are divided into "weekly parashot" (portions or readings) so that the entire volume can be read in the Synagogue every Sabbath over a period of a year. There are 54 portions in the One Year Reading Cycle.

Alternative selections are offered each Shabbat: a shorter reading (around twenty verses) and a longer one (around thirty verses). The readings are a guide and congregations may choose to or less from within that part of the parashah. On certain special Shabbatot, a special second (or exceptionally, third) scroll reading is read in addition to the week's portion.

SPECIAL NOTE: It is Rabbinic tradition for Jews outside of Israel to add an extra day to certain Biblical Fesitvals (e.g., 8th day of Passover or 2nd day of Shavuot).
From time to time, these extra days will fall on a Sabbath day and alter the Weekly Torah Portion Schedule. At TorahResource, we do not follow this Rabbinic tradition, therefore, this lectionary is based on the Weekly Torah. Havurah Shalom follows a triennial reading schedule in which one-third of the Torah portion of the week is read.
