Congregation Sholom

Saturday’s Torah reading will be Bereshit from the book of Genesis. Bereishit (In the Beginning), the first parashah in the annual Torah reading cycle, begins with God’s creation of the world. The first people, Adam and Eve, eat from the Tree of Knowledge and are banished from the Garden of Eden.
