[Avodah] Halacha: Understanding ' 'Shnayim Mikra V’Echad Targum'

[Prof. Levine]

New York - There is a well known Gemara in Brachos that states "A 
person should always complete his [study of the parsha] with the 
congregation - [by studying] shnayim mikra v'echad targum. Anyone who 
does this will have long days and years." Learning the text of the 
weekly parsha twice with the targum (keep reading for explanation) is 
a segula for long life.

What many do not know is that this statement of Chazal is actually 
codified in halacha!
