Special Shabbat reading · 1 readings

The first of the Four Parshiyot — read on the Shabbat before (or of) Rosh Chodesh Adar (Adar II in a leap year). The maftir recalls the machatzis hashekel; the haftarah tells of the bedek habayis collections under Yehoash.

Every word below carries its trop — the Hebrew cantillation notes it is leined with. New to the notes? See the trop guide.
