In Parshat Vayelech, Moshe walks through the camp on the last day of his life to bid his People farewell. He teaches them the Mitzva of Hakhel, gathering once each 7 years to hear the King read sections of the Torah. Yehoshua is told to copy over the Torah & take over the leadership of the nation. Moshe again exhorts the people to stay faithful to the Torah.
This Parasha is the Shortest in the Torah and many times is read with Nitzavim.
