Shabbos Nachamu

The minhag of most Ashkenazi congregations is to stand when the Aseres HaDibros are read during Kerias HaTorah of Parashas Va’eschanan. Most Sephardic congregations are particular not to follow this practice.

The haftarah of “Nachamu Nachamu Ami” is leined. This is the first in a series of seven haftaros known as the Shivasa D’nechemta, the seven haftaros of consolation.
