Learn to Lein Parshat Vayakhel Torah Reading וַיַּקְהֵל
Learn the Trop, Hebrew Cantillation
Parshat Vayakhel: Moshe gathers the people, repeats the mitzvah of Shabbat, and the Mishkan is built as it was commanded, curtains, boards, Aron, Shulchan, Menorah, altars and courtyard. Much of the text repeats Terumah with the verbs changed from command to deed. About 23 minutes of leining, recorded aliyah by aliyah by a Master Baal Koreh with every word highlighted as it is read.
