Community farewell good
bye party for Chashy
Alterman on Monday night
June 30th at the home of
Ariella Adatto 4950 Art
Street at 8:30 p.m.
The reading for Shelach can be
found on page 798 . Note: The
Shabbos Torah Reading is divided
into 7 parts. Each section is called
an Aliya literally: Go up since for
each Aliya, one person "goes up"
to make a bracha [blessing] on the
Torah.
1st Aliya: Moshe sends the Spies
on their mission.
2nd Aliya: The Spies return
carrying the massive fruits of the
land. They deliver their negative
report and the nation looses its
faith in G-d and Moshe.
3rd Aliya: Moshe successfully
argues for the life of the nation,
and Hashem issues the 40 year
decree of wandering and dying.
4th Aliya: The Spies die, and the
nation is informed of their own
punishment.
5th Aliya: The laws of the Mincha
- meal offering are stated.
6th Aliya: The laws of separating
Challah - the dough offering, and
the communal sin offering are
stated.
7th Aliya: The individual sin
offering; the incident with the man
who transgressed Shabbos by
gathering sticks; his punishment;
and the Mitzvah of Tzitzit,
conclude the Parsha.

The Haftorah can be found on
Welcome to all of our guests &
page 1184. Yehoshua 2:1
This week's Haftorah relates the
story of Yehoshua sending Kalev
and Pinchas to spy out Yericho,
their encounter with Rachav, and
their report confirming the fear of
Yericho's inhabitants. The
connection to our Parsha is obvi-
ous, however the outcome of this
"second mission" was far different
than the first one 38 years earlier.
The year was 2488 -1273 b.c.e.
SH'LACH STATS
37th of the 54 sedras; 4th of 10 in
Bamidbar
Written on 198 lines in a Sefer Torah
(ranks 25th)
10 Parshiyot; 7 open, 3 closed
119 p'sukim, ranks 21st, 6th in Bamid
1540 words, ranks 27th, 5th in Bamid
5820 letters, ranks 27th, 4th in Bamid
Sh'lach has shorter than average
p'sukim, which explains the drop in
ranking for words and letters, yet the
rise in rank within Bamidbar indicates
that there are sedras with even
shorter p'sukim
