The fourth portion of the book of Bamidbar/Numbers is Shelach, which means “Send.” This is the thirty-seventh Torah Portion.
Shelach (“Send”) tells the story of Israelite spies journeying into Canaan, the negative report they bring back, and the resulting punishment decreed upon the Israelites: to wander and die in the desert over forty years. It ends with laws about sacrifices, the story of a man who desecrates Shabbat, and the commandment to wear ritual fringes.
In the Haftorah, Joshua sends two spies into Jericho. Rahab protects them and they make a deal to save her family.
In the Apostolic Writings, Messiah sends out the 12 Disciples to proclaim “the Kingdom of Heaven is near” and to heal Israel of many afflictions as they go on their way.
TORAH: NUMBERS 13:1-15:41
HAFTORAH: JOSHUA 2:1-24
APOSTLES: MATTHEW 10:1-14
