 Sefaria Parshat Chayei Sarah, 4th Portion (Bereshit (Genesis) 24:27-24:52) Level one: Reading the weekly parsha with the haftorah both with Rashi  in two languages: Hebrew-English. When we are used in it:  reading it very quickly every day the whole year and on Simcha Torah we start over again with Bereshith.  Onkelos Targum reading very quickly in Hebrew-English near  the   weekly parsha. About This Text Genesis Tanakh Genesis (“Bereshit”) is the first book of the Torah, Judaism’s foundational text, and the only one consisting almost entirely of stories, with just three explicit laws. It tells of the origins of mankind and the Israelites, with stories on creation, Adam and Eve, Noah’s ark, the patriarchs and matriarchs - Abraham and Sarah, Isaac and Rebecca, Jacob, Leah and Rachel - and Joseph and his brothers. Its narratives depict figures as they encounter God, face wandering and exile, and grapple with conflict in family relationships. Composed: Sinai/Canaan (c.1400 – c.400 BCE)
