The reading for Naso can be found

Torah Reading is divided into 7

Aliya literally: Go up since for
each Aliya, one person "goes up"
to make a bracha [blessing] on the
Torah Reading.
1st Aliya: The family of Gershon
is assigned to carry the curtains
and tapestries of the Mishkan. The
family of Merrari is assigned to
carry the beams, poles, and
sockets that comprised the walls
of the Mishkan.
2nd Aliya: The families of
Gershon and Merrari are counted.
3rd Aliya: The laws regarding
sending out of the camp: the
Mitzora, the Zav (a type of
discharge), and anyone who has
come in contact with a dead body,
are stated. The law of stealing
from a convert (making restitution
if someone steals from a convert
who then dies without any heirs) is
commanded.
4th Aliya: The laws and
procedures for the Sotah - the ac-
cused adulteress; and the Nazir are
explained.
5th & 6th Aliyot: Being that the
Leviyim were to be in direct
exchange for the first born, Moshe
counts all the first born in the rest
of the nation. Their total was
22,273. The extra 273 first born
are instructed to redeem
themselves from Aharon the
Kohain for 5 silver shekels.
7th Aliya: The Korbonos offered
by the princes of each Shevet at
the inauguration of the Mizbeach
are listed.

The Haftorah can be found on page
1181. Shoftim 13:2
Around the year 2790 - 971 b.c.e., the
Bnai Yisroel were subject to the rule of
the Pilishtim. In the year 2810 - 951,
Shimshon became the Judge - Shofet of
the nation and served his people as both
their greatest Tzadik and greatest war-
rior. This week's Haftorah tells the story
of Manoach and his wife, the parents of
Shimshon (Shoftim Cap. 13).
Manoach's wife was barren, and in
response to her Tefilos, Hashem sent an
Angel, disguised as a man, to tell
Manoach's wife of her impending
pregnancy. The child would have to be a
Nazir from the moment of his
conception, and he would grow up to
save the Jews from their enemies.
Manoach requested from Hashem that
the "man" appear a second time, and the
Angel appeared a second time. The same
instructions were repeated to both

NASO STATS
35th of 54 sedras; 2nd of 10 in Bmdbr
Written on 311 lines in a Sefer Torah
(7.4 cols)
26 Parshiyot; 18 open, 8 closed
only 4 sedras have more parshiyot
176 p'sukim, 2264 words, 8632 letters
Indisputably the longest sedra in the
Torah, however you count length.
Naso is well below average, though, in
length of p'sukim, but not enough to
affect its first place ranking

the most in any of Bamidbar's sedras
Korach is next with 9)
Manoach and his wife, after which
Manoach invited the "man" to join them
for a meal. The "man" refused the
invitation but suggested to Manoach that
he offer a Korban to Hashem. Manoach
did so, and as the flame rose to consume
the offering, the "man" entered the
flames and disappeared. Manoach and
his wife then realized that the "man" was
really an Angel, and understood the
divine significance of their, yet to be
born, child.
The connection to our Parsha is the fact
that Shimshon was to be a Nazir. The
commentaries explain that in contrast to
the laws of the Sotah - the accused
adulteress, it was the merit of Manoach's
wife which brought about the birth of
Shimshon. Shimshon is among the most
difficult figures in Jewish history to
understand. For a comprehensive presen-
tation and explanation see, "Samson's
Struggle", by Rabbi Gershon Weiss.
