Author: Rabbi Aaron L. Raskin Format: 6" x 9" hardcover, 288 pages Language: English Decoding the # of verses in the Torah portion Mnemonics have always been used in Judaism as a tool to remember numbers and laws. The proof is found in the Haggadah for Passover when Rabbi Yehudah gave a mnemonic to remember the order of the ten plagues. The mnemonic or mnemonics at the end of the parsha are: Generally, a name found in the books of the prophets or writings. A word found in the parsha. The object of these mnemonics is not only to remember the number of pesukim in the parsha - but it is also to highlight a theme, an idea, or to answer a question on a particular parsha.
