Sedra Stats

Sedra Stats - Vayigash

11th of 54 sedras; 11th of 12 in B’reishit
Written on 178.07 lines in a Torah, ranks 34
Vayigash is composed of 3 parshiyot, all closed, one VERY closed. Actually, Vayigash has only 2.89 parshiot; it ends after 34 p’sukim of a 38-pasuk parsha; Vayigash is the only sedra that does not end with a parsha break. (This shows up in a Chumash by there not being a PEI-PEI-PEI or SAMACH-SAMACH-SAMACH between Vayigash and Vaychi.)
106 p’sukim - ranks 28; tied with To’l'dot and Bo. Actually it is considerably smaller than Bo, and a bit larger than To’l'dot
1480 words - 30th; 5680 letters - 29th
9th (of 12) in B’reishit in all 3 categories

MITZVOT
None of the 613 mitzvot are found in Vayigash

Have you diccontinued the pdf version of Tidbits?

Our family enjoyed reading the printout on Shabbos, but it is too difficult to print without the combined pdf version.

Good Shabbos,
