To enhance your
oneg Shabbat (enjoyment of the Sabbath) and to fulfill the
mitzvah of
Talmud Torah, the study of Torah, check out these sites (perhaps before Shabbat, to get you into the
shabbes mindset, or during Shabbat if you, like me, are snowed out of
shul) which expound on the weekly Torah portion:
Reform Voices of Torah - the weekly online Torah commentary provided by the Union for Reform Judaism
Stone Goodman - poetry and prose based on the weekly
ParshaThe Watering Hole - discussion, insight and connections based on the weekly
Parsha, or Torah portion, for and from the 20-something layperson.
Before you begin, you may want to say the blessing over the study of Torah:
Praised are You, Adonai, Our God, Ruler of the Universe, who has made
us holy with commandments and commanded us to engage in the study of
Torah.
SHABBAT SHALOM!
