Mechilta Parshat Bo quoted by Bet Yosef 285:5 records that Rabbi Yehuda HaNasi commanded his sons to fulfill this obligation before [[Shabbat]] lunch. Aruch Hashulchan 285:2 writes that this obligation is an institution since the times of Moshe Rabbeinu. Sh”t Maharsham (1:213 "ulam" writes that this has become a real obligation. Baal Haturim Shemot 1:1, Levush 285:1, Pri Megadim MZ 285:1 bring a hint to this obligation from the first pasuk in sefer shemot from the first letter of each word in the pasuk. see there for the small variations in the hint. </ref> | ||
# Even someone who will hear the Torah reading in Shul must read [[Shenayim Mikra]]. <Ref> The Hagahot Maimoniot ([[Tefillah]] 3:24) quotes the Raavan who says that [[Shenayim Mikra]] is only an obligation for those who live in villages that don’t have Torah reading on [[Shabbat]], however, the Hagahot Maimon argues on the Raavan. The Rambam 13:25, Tur, and S”A 285:1 write explicitly that there’s an obligation of [[Shenayim Mikra]] even for someone who heard Torah reading in shul. </ref> | # Even someone who will hear the Torah reading in Shul must read [[Shenayim Mikra]]. <Ref> The Hagahot Maimoniot ([[Tefillah]] 3:24) quotes the Raavan who says that [[Shenayim Mikra]] is only an obligation for those who live in villages that don’t have Torah reading on [[Shabbat]], however, the Hagahot Maimon argues on the Raavan.

# Even someone who is learned and wants to learn Talmud is obligated to read Shnayim Mikrah. <Ref> Teshuvot HaGeonim 7 in name of Rabbenu Matatya says that even a talmid chacham must complete Shenyaim Mikra VeEchad Targum. Sh”t Rashba 1:206 agrees. This is brought as Halacha in Chazon Ovadya ([[Shabbat]] 1 pg 300), Sh”t Igrot Moshe 5:17, Shulchan Lechem HaPanim (Siman 285), and Shemirat [[Shabbat]] KeHilchata 42:57. Kuntres Hilchot Shnayim Mikra VeChad Targum (Rabbi Sender, pg 10) writes that he saw Rav Elyashiv reading Shnayim Mikra even though he never wastes any time from [[learning Torah]]. Bikkurei Chaim (pg 39) writes that those who think that it’s [[Bitul Torah]] since they are capable of learning more in-depth should know that by spending more time on Shnayim Mikra they will be rewarded with long life ([[Brachot]] 8a). </ref> | # Even someone who is learned and wants to learn Talmud is obligated to read Shnayim Mikrah. <Ref> Teshuvot HaGeonim 7 in name of Rabbenu Matatya says that even a talmid chacham must complete Shenyaim Mikra VeEchad Targum.

# The pasuk Shema Yisrael can be said twice and then it’s Targum.<Ref> Maamar Mordechai 61:5 says since it’s recognizable that one is repeating every pasuk it’s not like he is acknowledging two deities (the issue with saying Shema twice usually see S”A 61:9).

# One can begin to read the weekly Parsha once the congregation (Tzibbur) read the Parsha at [[Shabbat]] [[Mincha]]. <Ref> Rama (Darchei Moshe 285:1) quotes a dispute between the Mordechai who says one can begin to read [[Shenayim Mikra]] from [[mincha]] of [[Shabbat]] when the congregation begins to read that parsha and the Kol Bo who argues that one can not read it then because earlier that day the congregation read the previous parsha.
