Parashat Sh’lach

This week’s Torah portion is Parashat Sh’lach (read on ).

Shelach (“Send”) tells the story of Israelite spies journeying into Canaan, the negative report they bring back, and the resulting punishment decreed upon the Israelites: to wander and die in the desert over forty years. It ends with laws about sacrifices, the story of a man who desecrates Shabbat, and the commandment to wear ritual fringes. [1]

Torah Readings

The Torah (Five Books of Moses) is divided into 54 sections, or parshiyot. Each section (called a parsha, also transliterated parashah or parasha) is read during a particular week (parashat ha-shavua). The full cycle is read over the course of one Jewish year. Readings for 5785 · 6-year summary

Each page displays a summary of the parsha, the verses read for each aliyah (traditional full kriyah, triennial and weekday), the accompanying Haftarah, and English-language commentary from a range of Jewish traditions.
