WEEKLY DIARY
Friday night-Saturday 26-27 September / 27 Elul
Shabbat Parshat NITZAVIM
Torah Reading: NITZAVIM: Deuteronomy 29:9-30:20
Haftara: Isaiah 61:10-63:9.
This is the last Shabbat of the year and we should make every effort to receive this Shabbat with the greatest joy and devotion.
It is customary NOT to bless the coming month in the Synagogue after the Shabbat Torah reading, "in order to outwit the satan" -- and in the case of Tishri, "they bless it in heaven" instead.
However those who have the custom of reciting the entire book of Psalms on Shabbat Mevorchin also do so on the Shabbat before Rosh Hashanah.
