Question: What is the Parshas HaShavua?
Answer: The Torah (5 books of Moses) is divided into 54 sections and 1 or 2 of them are read every week so that a public reading of the Torah is completed once a year. The Parshas HaShavua, or the “Weekly Parsha,” refers to the section that we read in synagogue that particular week.Rabbi Yitz Wyne
