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 the first unique word or words in the Hebrew text.
Table of Parshiot
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 54 weeks, the exact number varying between leap years and regular years. In years with fewer than 54 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.
