Sedra-Stats
12th of 54 sedras; 12 of 12 in B'reishit
Written on 148.33 lines in a Sefer Torah
129 parshiyot, 7 open, 5 closed. In addition, the first part of the sedra is the
end of the previous parsha from Vayigash. Vaychi is the only sedra that does not
begin at a parsha break.
Some people consider the opening p'sukim of Vaychi to be a "super-closed" parsha.
In fact, that is the impression from commentaries. It is rather because it is
part of the concluding parsha of Vayigash.
85 p'sukim - ranks 44th in the Torah (12th)
1158 words, 44th (12th); 4448 letters, 43rd (12th)
Mitzvot: none of the TARYAG (613)
