Weekly Torah portion study guide for B'reishit.
A selection of resources and texts have been gath-ered in this guide to help you as you prepare to be-come a bat or bar mitzvah. It starts with blessings for studying and reading Torah, followed by an overview of your parashah. After that, you will find the text of your Torah portion in English and Hebrew, along with a version that looks just like it appears in the Torah, as well as commentary on the portion. The next section explains some themes of the parashah. Our questions for study and discussion are meant to help you understand some of the layers of your Torah portion and help provide you with ideas for writing a d'var Torah, or sermon.
