One Year Torah Reading Cycle
Download a 2022/23 One-Year Torah Reading Schedule
Traditionally, the five books of the Torah (Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy) are divided into “weekly parashot” (portions or readings) so that the entire volume can be read in the Synagogue every Sabbath over a period of one or three years.
Below are 151 Torah Commentaries written for the Triennial Cycle but arranged and organized, here, for the One Year Torah Reading Schedule. Please note that, since these articles were originally written for the Three Year Torah Reading Cycle, the haftarah portions may not match those of the One Year Cycle, however, many insights can still be found and much benefit gained from each of these in depth and very thorough Torah studies.
A Comparison of the One Year and Three Year Torah Reading Cycles
Download a comparison chart which details how the 54 parashot of the One Year Torah Reading Cycle correlate with the 151 parashot of the Three Year Cycle. Comparatively, the One Year Cycle is a very aggressive reading schedule that can cover up to five chapters of the Torah in one week while the Three Year Cycle is a more leisurely paced schedule with usually one chapter per week.
