Maqam

A maqam is a system of musical modes used in Arabic music melodic classic. The Jews from Eastern countries ( North Africa , Syria ) were inspired, and adapt the melody of the Shabbat liturgy according to the contents of this week's Torah portion. They employ 10 maqam different, each with its own use.

The maqam used during the Sabbath in which we read Parshat the Maqam Ajam Beshala'h is because the Torah portion contains the Song of the Sea, which is read on Shabbat Shira .

Haftara

The Haftarah is a portion of the books of Neviim ("The Prophets") that is read publicly in the synagogue after the Torah reading. She usually has a thematic link with the Torah portion that preceded it.

The Haftarah for Parshat is Beshalakh Judges 4:4-5:31.. It contains the song of Deborah and Haftarah is the longest of the year for Jews Ashkenazi.

As in the Torah portion, a prophetess sings, but Deborah and Barak sing in unison, unlike Moses and Miriam , who each made a separate song.

Usage in the liturgy

The Song of the Sea (Shirat Hayam) is read during a special Sabbath, called Shabbat why Chira (Shabbos Shirah in Yiddish ). Some communities have a tradition, among other habits , feeding the birds in this day and recite the Song of the Sea in the offices of prayer usual.

The Song of the Sea is also part of these parashiyot we read every morning before beginning the Office of Sha'harit itself and the central exclamation ("Who is like You among the Elim, YHWH, which is gloreiux like You in holiness ") is repeated during the first blessing after the reading of Shema Israel.
