Sedra-Stats

NITZAVIM Stats
51st of the 54 sedras; 8th of 11 in D'varim
Written on 87 lines in a Sefer Torah (rank: 52)
4 Parshiyot; 1 open, 3 closed
40 p'sukim - ranks 53rd (10th in D'varim)
657 words - ranks 51st (8th in D'varim)
2575 letters - ranks 51st (8th in D'varim)
Only Vayeilech has fewer p'sukim than Nitzavim, but in words and letters, Nitzavim also beats out Haazinu and Vzot HaB'racha. Ironically, Nitzavim's p'sukim are longer than those of any sedra in the Torah except for Vayeilech. In lines in a Sefer Torah, Haazinu has more than Nitzavim because of the extra blank space in the special way Haazinu is written in a Torah.

Mitzvot:
none of the 613 are found in Nitzavim; some mitzva-counters count T'SHUVA as a mitzva from this sedra, but Rambam & the Chinuch do not.

VAYEILECH Stats
52nd of the 54 sedras; 9th of 11 in D'varim
Written on 72 lines in a Sefer Torah (rank: 53)
3 Parshiyot; 2 open, 1 closed
30 p'sukim - ranks 54th (11th in D'varim)
553 words - ranks 53rd (10th in D'varim)
2123 letters - ranks 53rd (10th in D'varim)
Shortest sedra in number of p'sukim; longest p'sukim in the whole Torah.

At mincha on Shabbat Parshat Nitzavim, the last Shabbat of 5765, we will read the first 13 p'sukim of Vayeilech. With that reading, we will have read, at least once, 5829 p'sukim of the Torah. The last 17 p'sukim of Vayeilech are not read at all in 5766. This occurs 31.5% of the time.

Mitzvot: 2 of 613, both positive
