Torah Portions

For a complete list of the Torah Portions (readings), I recommend First Fruits of Zion (FFOZ). They create a free downloadable chart that can be printed each year, and their website offers great outlines and commentaries.

Below, I have linked to articles that I have written that relate to particular portions. I hope to add to this list as time allows. This post gives a brief introduction to the haftarah portions.
