Each week the Torah portion (Parashah) is read on Shabbat and is divided into seven sections known as aliyot. Our Sages teach that the energy for each week of the year is described by the Parasha for that week, and that each aliyah corresponds to a Patriarch and also to one of the seven lower Sefirot.  For personal daily Torah study you may wish to study one aliyah each day.  Many communities since ancient times have used a triennial cycle of readings by which the entire Torah is read over a three-year period.  You may wish to utilize the triennial reading for your personal study which can be found below under each portion.

Haftarah literally means "taking leave" and is read on Shabbat after the Torah portion. It is a selected reading from the books of the Prophets, and usually has a thematic link to the Torah reading that precedes it. The blessings that are recited before and after the Haftarah can be found in our Shabbat Torah Service. The selected reading is not always the same in all Jewish communities. Our community follows the Sephardic custom.
