Weekly Readings · 2025-2026

A whole year, opened to a page.

Every Sabbath we read together: the פָּרָשָׁה parashah (the week's Torah portion) , the הַפְטָרָה haftarah (a matching reading from the Prophets) , and a passage from the בְּרִית חֲדָשָׁה Brit Chadashah (the New Covenant) . The cycle begins again each fall at Sukkot. The whole year is below, in order, ready when you are.

Looking Ahead

The next four Sabbaths.

Read ahead during the week, so the words have time to settle before the candles are lit.

The Year

The full Sabbath cycle, in order.

Each row holds one Sabbath. The Hebrew month names mark the rhythm of the year, beginning with Tishrei in the fall and turning all the way back. Festival readings step out of the regular cycle for a week and return to it the next.

A small glossary, in case you are new at the table.

פָּרָשָׁה Parashah
The week's Torah portion. The Five Books of Moses are divided into fifty-four parashot, read aloud one each Sabbath, completing the cycle once a year.
הַפְטָרָה Haftarah
A reading from the Prophets, paired with the parashah by ancient custom. Where the Torah states a thing, the Prophets often answer it.
בְּרִית חֲדָשָׁה Brit Chadashah
The New Covenant: the Gospels, Acts, the Letters, and Revelation. We read them beside the Torah and the Prophets, because Yeshua said He came to fulfill them, not to set them aside.
FFOZ Reading
A second Brit Chadashah passage drawn from the Torah Club reading plan published by First Fruits of Zion, a Messianic teaching ministry. It often surfaces a different angle on the parashah than our primary Brit Chadashah selection.
The Five Megillot
Five short scrolls read on appointed feasts: Song of Songs at Pesach, Ruth at Shavuot, Lamentations on Tisha B'Av, Ecclesiastes at Sukkot, and Esther at Purim. Where one is read alongside the parashah, this page notes it.
