Inclusion of the Annual Parashot Reading Cycle as a Lectionary in Logos
I would like to suggest the integration of the annual Parashot (Torah portions) reading cycle as an official lectionary in Logos. This is very important for Messianic Jewish and Torah-focused Christian users, as well as anyone studying the Torah systematically. Including the Parashot cycle would enable users to follow weekly readings seamlessly, aligning with traditional synagogue and Messianic congregational practices.
This lectionary would not only enhance personal and communal study but also provide structure for sermon preparation, devotional practices, and academic research. It could include the Torah portion, the Haftarah, and suggested readings from the Brit Hadasha (New Testament) when applicable.
Thank you for considering this suggestion to make Logos even more inclusive and valuable for a diverse community of Bible students.

The data for a big chunk of it is here
The Jewish readings are among those included in
Most years someone shares a messianic lectionary
and someone requests
But I suspect that we need to figure away around the labor intensive maintenance that the current implementation of lectionaries (foolishly) makes before we can push this through unless we get LOTS of votes.

Thank you MJ for your time!
(Or provide a tool that allows users to create and update their own reading cycles!)
And yes MJ, the topic has been going around here. And yes again, these days we get information everywhere. As a friend says: We are merely information🤔🤑. However, the think is that accessing Jewish or even Messianic calendars externally is indeed easy. The real value lies in having the annual Torah and Haftarot reading cycle directly integrated into Logos as a lectionary resource. And... Happy Hanukkah!😁.

We already have this and one user usually provides an update Messianic Judaism cycle each year
