About the reading cycles

One year (annual). The Babylonian custom, now the most widespread: 54 portions, finishing and restarting on Simchat Torah.

Three years (triennial). Each weekly portion is divided into three parts and one part is read each year, so the same portion names stay on the same weeks. This follows the modern triennial system published by the Conservative movement’s Committee on Jewish Law and Standards (Eisenberg, 1988). In the schedule above, year 1, 2 or 3 of the cycle is shown next to this week’s reading.

The ancient Land-of-Israel triennial cycle (141, 154 or 167 readings, taking three to three and a half years and not tied to the annual portions) is a separate tradition and is not part of this schedule. On festival Shabbatot the festival reading is shown in place of the weekly portion. Haftarah readings are not listed here.
