Parshah for Shabbat

Tetzavah, the parshah for March 7, is Exodus 28:31-29:18. It begins on page 508 of Etz Hayim.
The Shabbat before Purim is called Shabbat Zachor, Shabbat of memory. Therefore, the maftir Torah reading will be Deuteronomy 25:17-19, beginning on page 1135 of Etz Hayim. This reading relates to Amalek, a group that attacked us during the desert wandering. We read it because Haman is descended from Amalek. The Haftarah is I Samuel 15:2-35, on page 1282 of Etz Hayim.
