For the week of October 6, 2024

Torah Portion: V’Zot HaBerachah

האזינו

Torah Portion: Deuteronomy 33:1–34:12

Prophets: Joshua 1:1–18

New Testament: Matthew 7:24-29

Commentary: This portion, traditionally read on Simchat Torah, reflects on Moses’ legacy and the blessings he bestows upon the tribes. His final moments, gazing upon the Promised Land, are poignant and powerful. The portion, and the Torah, concludes with a sense of both completion and continuity, as the narrative cycle begins anew.
