Parsha

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In Jewish services, a Parsha or Parshah or Parashah, פרשה, meaning "Portion" in Hebrew, is the weekly Torah reading text selection. It is also known as the Parshat HaShavuah ("Weekly Portion") or the Sidra. The plural is Parshiyot. Each Parsha usually takes its name from one of the first unique word or words in the Hebrew text.

The following are the 54 weekly Torah portions. They are usually read in an annual cycle, beginning and ending on the Holiday of Simchat Torah. The lunisolar Hebrew calendar contains up to 55 weeks, the exact number varying between leap years and regular years. However, one week is always Passover and another is always Sukkot, while the final parashah, V'Zot HaBerachah, is always read on Simchat Torah. Therefore, there are in practice up to 53 available weeks for 53 parshiot. In years with fewer than 53 available weeks, some readings are combined to achieve the needed number of weekly readings. In the table, parshiot which may be combined with the subsequent portion are marked with an asterisk.
