Rabbi Aryeh Lebowitz

Now the other way to understand it...

even if it is related to Kriyas HaTorah, is what Tulsus writes in Brach HaStav Chas, and the Rosh quotes in the name of Yesh Mefarshim, that they say, when we say Targum, it doesn't necessarily mean Targum, but Lo Azos B'Laz Shalen, I think when they put out the art school, Shai Mikra Vecha Targum, they came out with a Pesach in the name of somebody, somebody big,

That if you read the translation of the Targum in English, then you're also Yoteshnai Mikavecha Targum.

So that's relying on the Yishtas Uri Shonan, that it doesn't have to be the Targum Dafka, it just needs to be that you understand it.

Which may be related to Kriyas HaTorah also.

Kriyas HaTorah is a form of Talmud Torah, but it doesn't work if you don't understand what you're reading.

So it helps to prepare in advance.

When you prepare in advance and you learn that whole parasha, and you understand what the parasha is about, and then you hear it being read in public, so then you understand the Kriyas HaTorah better.

But again, from that perspective, it's still related to Kriyas HaTorah.

Now, the other possibility is that it's a din in Talmud Torah.

That it's not about... Even though Kriyas HaTorah itself is about Talmud Torah, but it's a unique form of Talmud Torah.

But maybe this is just about Talmud Torah more generally.

The Aruch HaShulchan writes...

that our relationship to Torah needs to include both Shmiah and Limud.

Like we say in Ava Rabba, that we say L'shmoah and L'shmoah.

So the Shmiah is when you hear a Kriyas HaTorah from Sefer Torah, and the Limud is when prior to that you learn from a Chumash and you learn the Parsha.

So that already sounds like we're talking about a din in Talmud Torah.

That it's not a din in Kriyas HaTorah, it's a separate Chiyuv of Talmud Torah.

It could be that it's similar to the notion of what the Gemarim Kiddushin says in Dav Lamed, that Chazal wanted to give us a curriculum.

through which we can cover as much Torah as possible, and cover the right areas of Torah to make sure that we have a diversified and steady diet of the right parts of Torah.
