Every week, on Shabbat, in Synagogues around the world, they read from the Torah, the Five Books of Moses (Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy), in a yearly cycle.

Each week I’ll try to bring a selection of short articles that I’ve written over the years for the upcoming Synagogue reading, based on the commentaries of different Rabbis from various points in our history and from various places around the world.
