Torah Reading Schedule

In synagogues worldwide, a section or parashah from the Torah (Bereisheet/Genesis, Shemot/Exodus, Vayikra/Leviticus, Bamidbar/Numbers, and Devarim/Deuteronomy) is read and discussed. By following this yearly schedule the entire Torah is read each year. Corresponding readings are discussed from the Haftarah(Prophets). And we as Messianic Believers read a section from the New Convenant Scriptures that relates to the Torah.

We encourage you to follow the Torah cycle on a weekly basis and believe that it will greatly enrich your faith. Overlooked Scriptures will come alive and as many parts of the New Testament Scriptures take on a new perspective as far as "the Law" is concerned.
